Another World shearing record attempt has been given the all-clear to go ahead in Southland today with Leon Samuels tackling a record of 603 strongwool ewes in eight hours. The green-light was given at a late-Sunday pre-record wool-weigh where the wool from 10 sample sheep shorn under the supervision of World Sheep Shearing Records Society judges weighed 33kg, comfortably over the minimum average of 3kg per sheep.
