Ian Lucas
Ian has been contracting for the last 20 years and has also travelled to New Zealand shearing.
As well as a shearing run of approximately 50,000 sheep, Ian also has his own flock of 300 ewes and buys in store lambs.
It was 20 years ago Ian’s interest in shearing started, initially by shearing his own sheep and some local farms. As the demand for shearing increased, so did his client list which resulted in employing an additional shearer and by now Ian employs 4-5 shearers every season. Over the years, Ian has been on several shearing courses, achieving the highest British Wool accreditation of a Gold Seal.
