I’m from Australia and grew up on a dairy and sheep farm. People always wonder why shearing is so hard on your body. Apart from the constant bending and vibration in your hand and arm, you also have to wrestle and move them around. I have nothing but praise and admiration for people who shear for a living.
All I could think while watching is - this is a job that takes tremendous agility and strength. Looks like many ways to get injured - the most obvious is taking a kick from these deceptively strong animals.
I've never sheared a sheep or anything else all my life but I find your videos simultaneously fascinating and satisfying to watch. All that squirm and struggle and not a single nick and the fleece is in one piece. Well done, sir.
I love your videos. My grandfather did this for a living. Every day that he got home he was so tired. Much respect for everyone that does this for a living.
Amazing job again, Cammy! I loved the running commentary about what you were doing. I guess the ram felt calmer just knowing that you actually had a plan! Beautiful! Love to you all.❤
Reminds me of one of my moms head strong rams, he unfortunately learned with our old shearer that if he just fought hard an long enough the guy would give up so he became so difficult to care shear. The shearer said that he would have to be "restrained and stretched" and it was awful, he ended up hurting him badly. We fired him and got this other shearer that herd of our plight and literally he worked with him for six minutes and he stopped fighting completely! It was amazing.
I live in the city. I have never owned a sheep. Just fascinates me how you all do this. Just. Terrific job. Not just with the sheering, but the information is so interesting. Thank y’all so much.
You truly are professional, you make that shearing look easier than it is! I have sheared my 4 and 2 horned Jacob sheep and that isn’t as easy as you make that look. Thank you for filming this video 🙏🏼😊
Wondering not only what a big ram like that weighs, but what the fleece might weigh as well. Laughed when you said "at home Lizzie's the alpha male" and then "get a little off the cheek here." That was pretty cheeky of you... the first comment😊. Really instructive video. I thought of how much potential there is for harm to both shearer and sheep - those sharp clippers going so fast could inflict some 'shearious' damage. Well done Cammy
I am greatly impressed! I've never seen a pro sheer a sheep before, although i've watched people with a few sheep attempting to sheer them. Cammy did a difficult job with great efficiency. My back hurts just thinking about sheering one sheep and these guys do it all day long in the summer heat. Bravo!
"Ramscaping." 🤣😂🤣 I really thought he was going to take out your knee (or worse) with those kicks... what a feisty guy! Why do they always seem to become so docile the moment you get them on their bums?
Great job keeping your chill in a tense situation. It must be your police training kicking in to assist with your naughty suspect! Lol thanks for sharing your deescalation techniques.
Every man to his trade Cammy you definitely know yours just flipping LOVE your videos big congratulations at not being kicked to death with this ram you showed him who’s the BOSS . EVA from West Lothian xxxxx
It is nice that once you get them sitting on their tail and leaning back slightly, 98% of sheep will immediately relax and let you do your job. That feature was likely intentionally breaded into them. Sheep have been domesticated for thousands of years, and over that time, we have kept the best and eaten the rest.
What an imposing fellow that ram was, and kudos in establishing yourself as the boss. Laughed out loud at the “usually when I’m at home Lizzie is the alpha male, so that’s quite nice!” Love the videos, as always 😊
Look like you got him on his butt really quick. I wonder if being on his back triggers his fear reflex. It was really nice to actually see somebody kind of go with the flow instead of just knocking it out. I've often wondered if sheep would calm down immensely if they were handled differently
After the first struggle, Eric didn't misbehave AT ALL for a ram having sharp things nibbling at his jewels... 😅 Very cooperative. He felt your calm energy. Stick to telling your woolly customers a nice shear time story while working on them, and they are sure going to doze off through the process 😴😇

This work demands a lot from the spine too.
Sheep make milk?
@@datman2433 Girl sheep. -
@@danielbernardespereira That makes sense - didn't think about that. 👍

Holy Wooly that first ram was determined to be the boss 😂
I love your videos. My grandfather did this for a living. Every day that he got home he was so tired. Much respect for everyone that does this for a living.
Sheep are born with a true passion for passive resistance. They actually gloat when a shearer falls down. Extra points you know. 😂
By the time you're done, He's half the ram he was!
Amazing job again, Cammy! I loved the running commentary about what you were doing. I guess the ram felt calmer just knowing that you actually had a plan! Beautiful! Love to you all.❤
Sheep psychiatrist Dr. Cammy "Sheep Freud" Wilson talks down Eric "The Woolly Scottish Menace" for a friendly "dewoolling" 🥰😂😂
🤣🤣
This comment needs way more appreciation!
I liked the props to the Aussie shearers, who, he says, really know how to shear! Surprisingly entertaining but thanks so much for the subtitles.

They must feel so much better afterwards. ❤❤❤
Thank you for talking us through that one 👍
Most excellent Cammy, I think your calm , calmed him. Aye well Lizzy is some lass

It was a close shave, But he might have liked you. 🙂🤣😇🥰 You met the beast and won. 🤭😉
"Ramscaping!" 😂😂😂 Golden!!
First time i have seen a shearer taken down by a sheep! That was hilarious, hope he wasnt hurt.
That's a professional right there, fantastic job.

Nice work Cammy, when they're that big you don't mess about.

Held my breath the whole way through that one 😮. Well done Cammy, and all bits intact 😅
Big Beautiful Hampshire Rams! My favorite breed! 😊
When we had sheep I learned that if it worked once, they will try it again!!
I love your kindness with the sheep, some shearers are very rough!
I think it's your timber and confidence that the ram tunes into and relinquishes unto to you and your shears. Love watching you shear.
Excellent presentation and video!!! That RAM was as big as you are!! Thanks for sharing! Love from the USA!
Actually bigger.
That ram will weigh 120kg, Cammy about 80kg.
I am greatly impressed! I've never seen a pro sheer a sheep before, although i've watched people with a few sheep attempting to sheer them. Cammy did a difficult job with great efficiency.

That is a lot of ram in one place. Glad you won the battle. No wonder you have a hernia 👍😊👍
It is always fascinating to watch the fleece simply fall away from the body like melted butter.
Great job keeping your chill in a tense situation. It must be your police training kicking in to assist with your naughty suspect! Lol thanks for sharing your deescalation techniques.
I think that was a win-win for both ram and man
American here, looks like an amazing close and steady shear. Outstanding.
Every man to his trade Cammy you definitely know yours just flipping LOVE your videos big congratulations at not being kicked to death with this ram you showed him who’s the BOSS .

All his friends checking right away if he's okay, haha commiserating about another startling event.
Wow! Cammy makes it look so much easier than it is! I'd love a referral for a faire isles design undyed jumper.
Excellent shearing Cammy
You always do such a neat and tidy job shearing. Love watching the process ❤
Looks like Eric finally figured out that you weren't the bad guy...good job
Sheepscaped by Cammy😂
What an imposing fellow that ram was, and kudos in establishing yourself as the boss. Laughed out loud at the “usually when I’m at home Lizzie is the alpha male, so that’s quite nice!” Love the videos, as always 😊
Fun, fun, fun Cammy. Thank you❤️🇦🇺🏴
ram is saying not ewe again great vid cammy
Y'all all Sheep HEROS BIG JOG MAKING THEM SO EQUEST ELEGENT BEAUTIFUL ❤️.
Holy SHYTE, Cammy! That ram damned near took out your goolies! Poor Lizzie would have been a little upset.
Not half as much as Cammy!
"Only sheearers were harmed in the making of this video"
That should be your disclairmer at the beginning of all your shearing videos!!
You made that look too easy! Your poor back and hernia!!!
You were amazing very good job loved watching you work 👏🍾🍾
looks like you need a cup of tea after that one cammy
All I can say is Wow. Well done! Trimming my cat’s nails is nothing, now! 😀
That was a huge ram, made you work for your money.
Cami you are a very shearer from what i can see and you have a lot of patience
He’s another Bonny boy.
Does the board have to be slippery to help you or could you put some rubber matting on it ?
It has to be slippery so u can spin the sheep and twist your feet easily without destroying ur knee joint 👍
@@shearingseason4965 Ah I see. Thanks for that Cammy. ☺️❤️
Brilliant job, I’m so impressed with that I was on the edge of my seat watching.
You made that look easy and I know it’s not! Great job. Ramscaping 😂 😂
It looks so nice, thank you for the tutorial
Ram wrestling keeps you lean! Nice video.
That did look ticklish but you supported the weight well!
How much does ANGRY ERIC weigh after the haircut?
He looks to be ALL muscle.
お疲れ様😆🎵🎵でした❤
Absolutely brilliant work
That ram should take up judo, he's a natural!
Good job 👏🏾 👍🏽
my goodness you got to be in good shape for that job,
You are all soo cute🥰 humans and animals 💜
¡Hermoso vellón!
that ram was doing king fu!
Strong work! At least I don't have to turn my horse upside down to body clip him. 😁
Poor little guy walking along minding his business next thing he's returning to his flock with a Brazilian.
Look like you got him on his butt really quick. I wonder if being on his back triggers his fear reflex. It was really nice to actually see somebody kind of go with the flow instead of just knocking it out. I've often wondered if sheep would calm down immensely if they were handled differently
Masterfully done, Cammy!
They must feel so much better after the shearing.
Super well done! 😊
Im not missing this episode!...Gooooo Get-em..hahaha
Angry Eric..Awesome. lol
"ramscaping" 🐑 😆 You make it look much easier than it likely is.
Cammie you certainly make shearing entertaining!
Nice job 🐏 👍
Well done!
Awesome job 👍✌️🇺🇸
A sheep's kick can cause serious injury, break fingers, fracture shins.
At the start of the shear that sheep looked like he was showing you were too stick the mint sauce.
That is my dream job !!! 😀🥰😍😍😍
That was impressive!❤
That must be such a relief
Отлично спасибо большое за информацию. Красиво стрижешь приятно смотреть.👏👏👏👏👏😀👍
I love these clips, ( no pun intended)
Nice job
Saubere Arbeit! Nicht unnötig grob.
I wonder which is more taxing/risky, shearing or working as a farrier.
Well done.
Great video Cammy no bother to you lad 💪👌
The old meat and two veg must feel a bit chilly after the big trim.
I love your work
How much do you charge for one sheep?
Nice job! But his right front foot was bleeding a little innit? There seems to be al small crack in the wall there. You can see it at 6:11.
Angry Eric didn't seem angry this year. Might have gotten some new ewes in the flock. He almost seemed to be enjoying himself!

Do these characters bite? In all the shearing videos I've watched (they're strangely satisfying), I've never seen a bite.
Have you sheared much with a 7-tooth (snow comb)?
