jpc 4,121 Posted January 12 excellent start. Since you are calling this the fossil of the year already, does this mean you will hang up your rock hammer until next January? I hope not, and I hope you can find a competitor in the next 11 1/2 months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Titan 295 Posted January 13 Congrats!!! Definitely a special find. Hunting the eagle ford can be daunting sometimes with how scarce good finds come along. Happy to see your work paying off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoping for many more finds this upcoming year. 2020 was full of great finds for me and this would have been my crowning jewel of 2020. Fingers crossed this is just a sign of a good new year.
