A Few New River Finds

I found these three points at three different spots along the river. The biggest of them I found laying among a very small section limestone rip rap that someone dumped along the bank. I have been to this spot more than once and have passed by this point laying in plain sight many times just because I never thought of looking there. As I was leaving this spot I had to cross this section of the riverbank and I just happened to be looking down, and there it was, just laying there totally exposed and begging to be picked up. The other one that looks like a Graham Cave or Hemphill I found laying in about 2 inches of water, it is kind of an ugly point but I was happy to find it. The smallest one I really like, it has a needle tip, good flaking, a nice base but just a small piece of the ear is missing. I found this one at night digging through some tree roots at another spot along the river. Anyways I have been having trouble typing the biggest one if anyone has any ideas what it could be I would really appreciate it. Thanks for looking.

I have a couple points like the big one of yours and I call them Kupps or Cupps.

Great looking finds Douglas. My first thought on the bigger Point was a Cupp as well.
