South West Progeny Show – Saturday 20th August, 2022
To commemorate our 60th Anniversary year the South West Club Members held a progeny show at Tavistock Market, which was very well supported from members showing both types.
In the Crossing section, Judge for the afternoon was Mr Michael James, Duhonw Flock based near Builth Wells.
Again with a good number of entries forward in this section the members did not make it easy for the Judge.
Taking the top honours in the Individual classes was an eye catching ewe lamb from the Yelland Flock of Peter Heard, this homebred ewe lamb which was female champion is sired by the 3565/N001 Steel which Peter bought out of Hawes in 2020 for £5,000, a tremendous investment for the flock who has certainly made his mark. Peter also took the reserve female champion with another ewe lamb also bred by the N001 Steel.
Taking the male championship was Adam Garthwaite from the Hill End Flock with his homebred ram lamb 4549/R001 sired by homebred Hill End P001 Hulk, out of L030 who stood 1st prize aged ewe at the 2022 Okehampton Show. Taking the reserve male championship was Richard Turner, Brindifield with his homebred ram Brindifield 3037/M001 sired by 790/L002 Yore House.
In the Progeny Section again taking top honours was Peter Heard, Yelland with a pair of ewe lambs by the N001 Steel , with reserve champion group going to Adam Garthwaite, Hill End with his pair of ram lambs by the same sire – Hill End Hulk 4549/P001.
In the Mule Classes with only a small show of Mules forward it was Peter heard, Yelland who took top honours in the single and group classes with ewe lambs all sired by the N001 Steel. The winning Mule Progeny Group were a group of 3 Mule Ewe Lambs ex Scotch Blackface shown with their Sire. Reserve Mule Progeny Group were a group of 3 Mule Ewe Lambs ex Swaledale shown with Sire.
A tremendous day was enjoyed by all who took part and congratulations to all members for putting out a tremendous show of sheep.
