The Speed Shear
The Speed Shear started sometime after 6:00 pm and was held in the barn opposite the show field. It is becoming very popular as an event and this one was no exception. With the barn full, the shearing began. With over £1000 in cash prizes, the stakes were high. The way it seems to work is the novices go first, which you can tell from their times, around 1 minute or so per sheep, although it seems pretty fast to me! The higher prizes attract the faster shearers and I was amazed to see times of around 30 seconds or so. Congratulations to all who took part & to those who won prizes.
