IF they are really paired, this would imply that several stones may have fallen.
The Estacado main mass weighs 290 kg, the Spade single mass weighs
8.86 kg. Thus a hypothetical strewn field ellipse might stretch from somewhere
between Hart Camp and Littlefield for the smaller masses to increasingly larger
masses toward Estacado (all of these places north of Lubbock*, TX) with the
center line of the hypothetical strewn field ellipse running from Spade via
Abernathy / Heckville to Estacado.

*Lubbock is an L5 chondrite
