Sheep shearing in Central Hawke's Bay
Brandon Coombe-Gray's crew shears for farms around Waipawa, Waipukurau and the rest of Central Hawke's Bay. Keeping it clean, local and affordable.


- Clean
- Clean shearing and a tidy board. Fleeces are picked up and skirted as they come off, and the shed gets swept before we pack up.
- Local
- Home base is Waipawa, and the crew works the sheds of Central Hawke's Bay. Brandon answers the phone himself.
- Affordable
- Ring Brandon with your sheep numbers and timing, and he'll give you a straight price before the crew turns up.
What we do
Shearing
Mainshear, second shear, ewes, lambs and rams.
Crutching and dagging
Between shears, whenever the flock needs it.
Shed hands
Woolhandlers on the board and at the table, so every fleece is picked up, skirted and sorted.
The whole crew
Shearers and shed hands together. One call to Brandon books the lot.

Where we shear
Most of the work is in Central Hawke's Bay, an easy drive from Waipawa. The crew also takes on sheds around Hastings and Dannevirke.

On the job















Book a shear
Tell Brandon where the farm is, roughly how many sheep, and when you want them shorn. He'll come back to you to sort a date and a price. Shearers and shed hands after a spot in the crew can get in touch the same way.
