Sheep Shearing

We are delighted to welcome back Lachlan Bryant who will demonstrate the art of blade shearing. Lachlan grew up on a farm in Rokewood in Western Victoria and began professional shearing in his mid 20’s. As he travelled around the district, he met other shearers who encouraged him to enter shearing competitions and this is where he learned the art of blade shearing. Lachie is proficient in both blade and mechanical shearing and has made the Victorian Sports Shear Association State Final. More recently, you may have seen him demonstrating his skills at the National Wool Museum in Geelong. Don’t miss this exciting display of skill and talent.
