ISHEDHUNT,
that is pretty cool. Do you know how old it is?

ISHEDHUNT,

Very interesting find. Can you share the details of the story behind finding it? Where was it, dry creek bed, washout or just lying on the ground etc.?

Thanks for posting the picture.

Nice find Chris, I have a couple in my collection also. Never know what you might find while shed hunting.

Thanks Tony. I found it in a creek bottom, I was with 3 friends from Des Moines and the 4 of us had been hunting about 2 hours. I was walking next to the creek an every so often I would drop into the creek to look at bottles and stuff. I had been looking for axes or arrowheads. Thats when I came across the Buffalo skull upside down laying at the edge of the sandbar. I didn't find any sheds but was quite happy with my find. I'm going to try and get in touch with someone at ISU and see if I can get it aged.

Mike I found a horn and a smaller portion of skull about 4 years ago also. It is a larger horn than the latest find. I will try an upload a photo of it in the morning. Here is the photos.

I finally have this photo posting down. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks! The two photos above are from a find four years ago. I found a leg bone this fall about 40 yards up stream from this horn.
