The only logging the brothers did on TV was for their own use to repair their porch. That said they had far more smarts and know how than most likely gave them credit for. Living off the land is not an easy life as one might think. But he got to live the life he enjoyed. Many don’t get the chance to be as free as the brother are.

Yeah, you've gotta love that floating hoist rig they used to lift the submerged cypress trunk. I lived down there and know those waters - some of those home-built pontoon rigs are three generations old.

no he is right. There was one show where they were dragging huge gigantic logs OUT OF THE SWAMP and saying the logs were worth $1000.
