Default Odd Point

I've not done much research on any of my finds , but this one is by far my most curious point. Found in Mid. TN. Any ideas ? Thanks for looking.

WOW! That is a beauty! I've really no experience in points, spearheads, etc - but I've never seen one with a rounded end before...I hope someone else can help identify this, as I'd like to know as well....thanks for sharing the pic!

Thanks for looking guys,for the last few weeks I've been trying to ID some,and I must say I'm not doing a good job . This is by far the most curious one in my collection. I would dearly love to know something about it.
