High country sheep farmers Will and Emily Murray have defended their title with a near perfect merino ram fleece at the Wanaka A&P Show.
The couple run about 11,000 merino sheep on Glenmore Station.
The 1900ha station runs from the shore of Lake Tekapo up to Aoraki/Mt Cook National Park, Mrs Murray said.
"It keeps us busy and out of trouble."
A ram merino fleece from the station won them the grand champion prize at the show on Friday.
