Salado Creek Finds...my personal best
Looks like ya'll will see a lot from me today. I am finally finding some time to put up some pics. My wife's folks live off Salado Creek. I fell to my knees when I found this beauty. Razor sharp and great patina. This is my personal best find, but I have little clue in regards to the type. I have had Hell Gap and Angostura suggested, but I have read no Hell Gaps exist in Texas. I am new to typing points, have a couple of guides, but welcome all the help I can get.

Excellent find. I think I would have fell to my knees as well.

Nice older point, I used to call these Travis but I was told they are older. Closer to Angostura.
