Not an Expert/Editor but...
Seems to compare favorably with a male Arigomphus submedianus, Jade Clubtail,

Note in the comments the thin stripe on the thorax eliminates Stillwater Clubtail.

thanks
Looked both clubtails up now that you gave me a direction to go and I agree with you, the eyes also are a match. Very glad because yes, this would be a new dragonfly for me. :)

I Want One Too!
Haven't seen one in my area - SE Texas. Some very interesting dragonflies coming out of the Metroplex area this year.

Probably the flooding
I assume that our Spring flooding here resulted in more dragonflies than past years.
