Pearl must have the best life a dog can have.
True !
Pure freedom 😃
just look at her eating the berries and sitting on his lap without a care in the world.
When she was munching those berries I couldn't stop laughing
hes got such a happy face and cute awesome derp eyes
I see Pearl enjoying herself picking HUCKLEBERRIES. It's great seeing videos of both of you. God bless you n keep up the good work Pearl. Great cane love seeing them made.
Thank you very much Minerva! God bless you too!
Pearl is so beautiful. I loved when she was eating berries off the vine. Never seen that before. Best friend a man can have.
It’s really cool how you can look at a stick and envision what you want to create.
Jaw dropping! Truly talented. What an amazing gift to have...and lucky little dog, she has the best life. All the best to you both!
Thank you very much, Sharon!
this should have more likes
I came for a walking cane, and my eyes bless with that pupper cuteness. But more importantly your cane was amazing.
My grandmother used to tell me I could play outside until "it becomes too dark to tell a stick from a snake". But with you around, the sticks turn into snakes. You're almost as good as Moses was when he went to see the pharaoh. If I hadn't watched you make it, I'd swear you just put a copperhead in the freezer until he stiffened up. Amazing work, and it just keeps getting better!
Haha! Thank you!
The world needs more people like this man
I'm a beginner at wood carving - just watching your video's helps to no end - thank you
I love how you pulled up that dead trunk and Pearl was straight in the hole! I find it so calming watching your videos.
Love watching your videos, so relaxing. It's like being a kids again watching papaw making stuff out of wood.🖤
Outstanding job once again. It looks so life like. When you was walking up to the camera it looked so real. Once again amazing job on capturing gods creation's. And Pearl looked like she was having fun to. I got a kick outta her eating them huckleberries 😂😂😂😂. Can't wait to see the next carving adventure. God bless you and your family 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you very much Chris! Yeah, Pearl had a great time out there trying to out do me at picking berries! Haha! We got enough for a pie, and it was really good!Thanks for your kind comment and God bless you!
@@StinnettSticks yes sir glad to be a part of the Stinnett Sticks carving adventures it is truly amazing how you turn a peice of wood into a great carving like that
I feel real comfert in my soul when watch video From your channel
I'm really glad you enjoy the videos! Thank you for your comment!
Watching Pearl chomping on those berries made me laugh. Dang that was funny!!
Haha! She was like a little pig!
Mr. Stinnett, you are a National Treasure, sir! I have never in all my years seen anyone who can carve, paint, and form wood as you do. I stand in open-mouthed awe of your talents. I get completely mesmerized just watching you work. Thank you for sharing your work with us, we greatly appreciate it!
Thank you so much, Robert, for your very kind comment! I really appreciate it, and I'm glad you enjoy my content!
Great Video! after watching some of your amazing work I decided to give wood carving a try it is challenging but that's the fun part about it!
Thank you! I'm glad you've decided to start carving! It really is a lot of fun! I'm sure you'll enjoy it!
You're gonna get hooked onto a relaxing and rewarding hobby. Enjoy!
This is just so relaxing to watch. you are one talented man!
Big like from Norway.
Thank you very much!
Yet another masterpiece from a Master Craftsman!!
These snakes all looks so real, have you ever had anyone think it was a live snake in a retail establishment?
PS. Pearl was like; nope ... That one's mine.
Thank you very much! Yes, I accidentally almost gave my dearest old friend a heart attack the first time she saw my sticks, haha! Pearl's pretty competitive, haha!
I wish I had the talent that you have. I made a cane about 2 years ago with a vine going up it, with butterflies, a lizard, and a hawk. People stop me everywhere to get a look at it. I keep suggesting them to see your video's if they want to see a real artist.
Thanks for sharing
Thank you very much, David! That sounds like a really nice stick you made!
This man is the happiest man in the world. Just him. His passion... the wood.. the nature... no wife to shout all the day! What a life ! 👍
Keep up the great work on carving these masterpiece
Simply beautiful the amount of time and effort put into these is amazing
I get such peace and serenity from watching you put your heart and soul into these projects. You really breathe life into these dead trees. I would really appreciate more frequent projects from you. Because your skill in mimicking and carving the structure of your subjects. Meaning the snakes ofcourse and birds and lizards are so real and life like. Could you please do another story cane. With 3 or 4 different critters on one walking stick . Something out of this world like only you can😊. Thanks
true art transforms the material, the artist and the spectator, you inspired sir, thank you.
Mike, I just love how you freehand every piece ❤. HEY👋Miss Pearl, don't eat too many huckleberries.
God Bless my friend! ~Jay~
Thank you Jay!
Magnificent achievement, as always ...
and I am delighted to see that the Covid has not affected you ..
take good care of you and yours.
Thank you very much Marc!
Just listening to and watching this amazing artist soothes my soul. The mellow music, deep laid back voice, nature and the cutest little dog is all very relaxing and entertaining.
Definitely enjoyed watching Mike. And to see your precious furchild. As always, that was lovely. Take care
Thank you, Val! I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
Mr. Stinnett: Always take your survival knife with you.
Me: Yes, Sir... even though I don't have one.
I like to suggest the Leatherman wave + ,had it for years it's a handy thing to own.
Brilliant work as always. Three weeks, thought it would take longer with the detail you put into them but then you do have a lot of experience:)
Thank you William!
I must say what a wounderful peiece .
Looks so real.
I'm just starting to carve wood myself .
I'd like to thank you for your videos which help me as I teach myself.
Love these videos! Thank you.
Hello from Russia. Like.
An old Eskimo Artist told my father that the way to carve a walrus out of a tusk was to cut away everything that didn’t look like a walrus. It’s obvious that here is another artist that knows and uses that same philosophy with equally amazing results. Not many have the knack of being able to see the finished product in a dead tree standing beside a trail, waiting to be revealed.
Holy wow! Excellent work Mr. Stinnett! We're happy to see y'all are doing fine! Thank you for showing us your exquisite work with all of us! We pray for you and your family and little Pearl! God bless and we're looking forward to your next project! You guys are awesome!
Thank you very much! I appreciate your prayers. God bless you and your family too!
When pearl is picking berries, it's the best. Soooooo damn cute. I wanna squish her with hugs.
Amazing work as always! I would love to have one of your walking canes.
Привет Майк. Отличная работа. Привет Жемчужине.
Thank you Lerych! Hello from both of us!
Лерыч сдраствуйте. Вот откуда у него столько терпения?
@@user-sp8wp4js8s это мастер.
Таллантливый и терпеливый
Wow Sttinnet, it's amazing how you transform some random looking piece of wood, a dead tree into an amazing, looking live, walking stick. Fantastic job on that sir! I really enjoyed watching your video! Picking the berries brings memories of my own. Thank you.
My jaw hits the floor everytime I watch your work! I I've literally told all my friends about you! Absolutely stunning work BRAVO 👍😁
You're a rare breed, thank you for inspiring the next generation of creators!
It is a great pleasure to watch your works. Thank you very much for your sharing. Greetings.
Thank you too!
As usual mike your workmanship and your attention to detail is awesome. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
You’re such a wholesome man. Thank you for this content
Mike, your very professionally crafted videos and your breathtaking artwork featured in them are eagerly anticipated and thoroughly enjoyed. This episode's copperhead is so lifelike that I'd be extremely hesitant to touch it. Pearl is quite the huckleberry picker, and fortunately the berries were growing at her height.
Thank you, Noah! Pearl really enjoyed those berries, haha!
WoW amazing and that from a tree branch so good 👍👍👍👍👍
Yes, I really enjoyed watching it. Near the end of the video, the way you were showing the underside of the copperhead, it actually looked like you were holding a real snake. True artistry! Thank you for another amazing video!
What a fantastic idea using the shell casing as a marker for the eyes!!! Beautiful
One the most PATIENT people on the planet :-) LOVE YOUR VIDEOS.......Its SO relaxing In a world of caos, AI-technology and bad music :-)
Dad Gum Mike......another killer stick. You are the master of wood taxidermy!!!! Careful not to get bit!
You are extraordinarily skilled and talented, but the place you call home wins the prize. Great video
Excellent work as always Mike! I always love watching your adventures with Pearl too! Hope you're keeping safe!
I was just thinking, its about time Mike uploaded a new video and this one is every bit as good as your others, especially as you had your constant companion with you fetching wood and collecting and eating those luscious Huckleberries, Pearl obviously loves them and was a good competitor in the race to get them. The snake fabulous, as always, I knew it would be, but then you NEVER disappoint, Mike please stay safe and healthy and your wonderful family, you are the best.
Thank you, John! Yes, pearl and I had a good contest going on, haha! She's a good little pup, and is constantly trying to help me in everything I'm doing, haha! It's always good to hear from you my friend! Take care, and I'll see you on the next one!
It's always the best part of my day when I can watch Mike wield his magic carving one of his incredible walking sticks! Also, get a kick out of that little Pearl & her antics...👍❤❤😉
Thank you Steve! Pearl does something to make me laugh every day, haha!
Great video enjoyed the scenery and your dog eating berries and your snake cane I suffered a Brain injury and caused me post concussion syndrome CTE and central Vestibular disorder and have to walk with a cane all the time nd with my weight I bend and have broken metal ones when balancing I have a wood cane but nothing as fancy and masterful as the ones you make GOD you and pearl watch your video fifty times I enjoy it every time I suffer from short term memory so I miss a lot of stuff so I watch it again and again and there’s always something new just like watching Bob Ross you feel peace so I thank you 🙏🏾❤️🐍
Hello my friend !!!! Pearl is a pretty good tree spotter !! Cane just as beautifully done as ever ! I miss see your video's mike ! Make more !! I know your busy ! I just miss Pearl !!!!!.😕 😊 🐕
Hey my Irish friend from Arkansas! How have you been? It's been hard for me to put out more videos since it takes me so long to finish a project. I should just film Pearl since she is what most people are interested in watching, Haha! Take care!
Just as the rest of your videos, they are relaxing and the work is museum quality. You also qualify for a spinoff beard channel.
Love it!! Hope you and Pearl have a wonderful, safe and blessed weekend! Peace & Blessings!
I just skinned out a 3' copper head lol. When I was a teen I had a bland Katawna, so I peeled a chicken snake and slipped it over the sheath. That was over 15 years ago, and it still looks awesome! Your carvings just brought all that back. Im about to binge watch a few hours worth. 😁
Fascinating. Peaceful. Beautifully filmed. Perfectly edited. Pearl, the huckleberry hound, is a joy to watch. *And* almost as an afterthought, that was yet another beautiful walking stick. I got the feeling that if you dropped it, it would have slithered away...
Thank you very much Colin! I'm really glad you enjoyed watching the video!
You are like the bob Ross off Wood . You are relaxing and interesting to watch
Amazing video, you always bring me peace. Thank you!
The amount of detail you just casually put into one of these pieces in spectacular always enjoyed watching. And I would poo my self if I saw this casually laying around.
Beautiful work like always, thanks for this relaxing video, i wish you and your family without forgetting little Pearl a great life , stay safe out there.
Thank you very much, William!
I think the only possible reason anyone could dislike one of these videos is because they’re scared of snakes! Wonderful work as always, Mr. Stinnett!
Aw, sweet Pearl. Our little poodle, Teddy, loved huckleberries. Blossom (our current doxie dog) likes watermelon. Good seeing you again, love the cane.
Another fantastic project it looks so life like. You are a true master of the heart of carving. Thank you for the enjoyment of watching you at work 👏👏👏👏
Another great one, Mike. You do it every time. I usually have to race my dog for strawberries. Take care. Bill
Thank you, Bill!
This is the most soothing thing to watch. Beautiful work! 💜
Craftsmen like these are slowing going extinct. I loved your video and loved your work. Great cane Sir 👏
U are a walking piece of art. Your sticks are the best in the world in my opinion.
Very nice, and the trip into the countryside was a bonus. Love your little buddy.
Thanks for sharing pure beauty nice to see Pearl enjoying her self 👍
Glad you enjoyed it, Tony! Thanks for you comment!
I will say it again, what a truly amazing talent to have. I love venomous snakes, and am a combat USMC Vet, one of these days, I will have a cane ir waking stick that represents both: my love of snakes and my love Of Our Country And My Combat History. Thank you so much for sharing another wonderful video.
You're very welcome my friend. Thank you for your kind comment! Semper Fi!
Hello, Mike,
So, today you showed us the "Hershey Kisses" snake. That's how I recognise Copperheads. The pattern on them reminds me of Hershey Kisses. Anyway, the stick you just made is gorgeous and I loved watching you and Pearl go out to collect wood to make more. It seems as though she really does enjoy eating those Huckleberries. The look on her face was priceless.
I hope you are coping well with all the nonsense that is going on in our country these days.
The weekend will be here by tomorrow and I hope you have a lovely one.
May God continue to bless you and protect you in these times.
Kind regards.
Liz.
I hadn't heard them described as "Hershey Kisses Snakes" before, Liz! That's a good one! Thank you very much for your kind words! We all just have a great time out in the country with whatever we're doing! I'm coping well with all this nonsense because, as much as possible, I've been ignoring it and just enjoying the life that God has given us. It is certainly crazy times we're in, but keep looking up! May the Lord bless and keep you through all this!
patricia here--- PEARL-- bring hooman to make holes!!! stunning work mr Mike!!! never fail to amaze us
Yes I did enjoy watching it Mr Stinnett. Pearl was so keen on the Huckleberries i wonder if she was so keen the next morning. 👍🏻🇦🇺
I'm really glad you enjoyed it Kevin! Pearl really did like those berries! She had no regrets, haha!
Amazing work as always!! You should carve Pearl, she seems like the sweetest little companion
Thank you Christi! I'll have to do that someday!
Pearl did a great job supervising you taking the tree from the ground. She taught you well
Haha! She's always close by, supervising!
So beautiful. And Pearl loves to help.
The depth of Art is commendable. God bless u. Love to pearl.
Absolutely incredible sculpting as always and I love how well you treat your dog! Great work!
Thank you!
Hey Mike and Pearl....thank you for my dose of therapeutic nature goodness today. Sending love from FL. God Bless!!
You're very welcome, Robina! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video! God bless you too!
Another beautiful job. Such a pleasure to watch you and Pearl.
Thank you very much, Karla!
Pearl is so beautiful... Wish i had a little friend like her.
I could swear you had a real live snake in your hands. absolutely superb artform
Another fantastic carve! I gotta say you do get excellent help from Pearl! She’s a cutie! I will start to worry though if you toss that on the ground and it starts to moving. 😎 Looking forward to your next project.
Glad to see you still kickin I love your work. I just wish I could afford it. So until then I'll enjoy your process. Thank you good sir for giving a little peace and calm in a crazy world.
You're welcome, and thank you for watching!
You never fail to amaze with your talent. Pearl is the perfect little companion never seen a dog gobble berries before.
Thank you! Pearls a lot of fun!

You are so relaxing to watch. Amazed by your talent.
Watching you do your thing is really relaxing and helps take my mind off of stuff..
Thanks for sharing the great work and your method to find your wood. Oh Pearl eating Huckleberries was amazing
Wow another fantastic looking cane. I really love your work. Thanks
If you ever made a full length movie that hit theaters, that theater would win the lottery off of me for the number of times I would go to see it....Keep em' comin'!!
Haha! Thank you, Nathan!
Beautiful, as always! :)
Another great cane and video. My favorite part of your videos is you and pearl out exploring the mountains. GOD bless😊
Thank you very much! We have a lot of fun out there! God bless both you and your wife!
Thank you🙏
Absolutely beautiful.Pearl is one heck of a berry picker.lol.
