In this week's feature segment, "Owen Brothers Logging," the Outgoing Mississippi Forestry Association "Outstanding Logger of the Year."
If you think having high production and multiple logging crews are a pre-requisite to winning this honor, think again.

Our story takes us to northern Hancock county, less than 30-miles from the Gulf of Mexico. Reporter:  Leighton Spann. (original broadcast September 25, 2009)
