KILMACRENNAN man Ivan Scott has set a new lamb shearing world record and claimed another world championship in New Zealand.
On Monday he shore 744 lambs in eight hours, beating by two sheep the previous world record.
Ivan was brought up on a farm but had little shearing experience, however, that all changed when he travelled to the other side of the world.
Since his move he has been shearing full-time, mostly near Christchurch and for the past four years he has also been shearing the summer season in Rotorua.
