CLASSER'S COMMENT FOR GUNALLO.

The ascendency of Gunallo in the last three years in particular, has been intriguing to witness.

Huge quality lift in part due to large A.I. programs utilising proven genetics from leading studs in Victoria and South Australia, have seen unprecedented gains within the stud.

A $10,000 sale at Adelaide Royal 2006 followed by the same at Hamilton SheepVention 2007 then equal top price poll at that dynamic Classings Classic 2007 at $8000, really cemented Gunallo as a popular choice for studs and commercial clients over three states.

Ray and Brad Schroeder's enthusiasm for this ever demanding, evolving and at times frustrating business (ie. Mulesing) is infectious and certainly a catalyst for Gunallo's success.

This year's Classings Classic, Adelaide Royal and Hamilton SheepVention ram sale teams, are a direct reflection of the Schroeder's efforts. They represent the ever increasing depth of quality arrived at due to the freeing up of the skin, lowering SD's, CV's and micron whilst maintaining production at all costs.
