Our property is “Yass Plains”; it's where we run the Woolaroo
Merino Stud. My father, Peter Walker, my brothers, Charlie and Jack,
and I work as a team classing, selecting, preparing, showing, shearing
and selling our Merinos. Progressively my brothers and I have taken
over the responsibilities of Stud Classer from Dad. Today we boys
class the stud and our clients' sheep whether they're at Yass, Young,
Goulburn, Bathurst, Temora, or in Victoria. We also have John Williams
of Cooma as an adviser.
Classing our clients' sheep allows us to determine what each client
needs in the way of rams. This feedback helps us to keep breeders'
individual needs in mind when we class our own sheep. And to that
end we have developed two Woolaroo families, Ringmasters, and The
Purples which complement each other. The Purples give us the wool
cut and size, while Ringmasters give us low micron and softness.
