Whats your most common "type" of point found?

[sands of time]

I started thinking about it the other day, and you would figure my most common would be the Desert Series types, I have only 7. Not exhagerating honestly my most common would be Folsom "31 pieces" followed by San Jose/Armijo cluster "17 pieces" .
Just curious as to what is your most common for your area?

Rose Springs or Elko

Depends on where I go. I used to hunt about 6 places, now it's mostly 2.

One place is predominantly Gary points, the other is mostly a Castroville-Smith type. Both spots are about 7 miles apart, right on the river.

Locally it has to be the Malaga Cove...

Folsom most common! Dammit !! Darls, the great Darls for me!

Like Scotto said it all depends on which spot I'm hunting. My closest field about a mile away would be triangles. About 5 miles away archaic types like Brewerton. I've got a Jacks Reef spot down the road as well. In WV were I hunt Kirks are probably most common, usually the stemmed variety.


I don't think .005% of artifact hunters could say their most common type is Folsom, consider yourself extremely lucky.
