Any Arrowhead Hunters out there?

I really suck at it. My buddy knows a kid around here who has a 5 gallon bucket full of arrow heads. I have never found one.

A few years back I knew some folks that wanted to start offering some dude ranch experiences, and they asked if I'd be willing to bring the family and give them some feedback on it. So we went over and spent a week there, and my girls got to experience some real life horseback cattle drives, and pleasure riding through the mountains, etc.

On one of the rides the wrangler rides up next to me and says "I know what you're doing, because I do it all the time too while riding........you're looking for arrowheads aren't you". It's hard to turn that off. I do it while hunting, fishing, hiking, etc. The last one I found was on a hunt in 2020.
 
I’ve tried but never have any luck. I’m usually too busy looking for animals, tracks, etc. I’ve been known to step right over them just for someone behind me to pick it up and laugh at me.
 
I have got to the point where I check historical data
On places I go hunt just so I can hunt for artifacts
As well. It’s made me want to spend more time in the off season putting miles in boots and seeing new places.
 
I enjoy looking for them in the spring after snow melt, have a friend who helps a world renound Dino digger. We go look for them and all I find is sheds and occasionally and arrow head
 
I used to find them working in the tobacco fields here in Kentucky. I don’t have a ton of arrowheads but knew some old folks who had some amazing collections.

ADDICTING!!!!!!!
Used to be a real time-consuming thing around here for me when the farm fields were plowed in the spring. Recently the farming methods have changed to a lot of no-till and just harrowing/discing the fields, so pieces don't show up as much. After my father sold the cows, he spent most of his time looking for stones, as he called it, and has quite a collection.
 
Where does a guy even start to look? I’m in southern WI and have never found one. Seems like there is some native history along the river, but I wouldn’t know where to look.
