We are delighted to welcome 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐖𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐬 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐝, near Beragh, Co. Tyrone, as our Charolais judge at this year's Royal Highland Show.

A Charolais breeder since 1973, Will runs over 40 pedigree Charolais cows and is well known throughout the breed for producing powerful, stylish cattle with outstanding performance. His herd has enjoyed tremendous success in both the show ring and sale ring, including securing the 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐚𝐭 𝐁𝐚𝐥𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟕 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐖𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐋𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐞.

Will has sold numerous bulls through the premier sales at Stirling and Perth over the years, collecting many championships and sale honours along the way, including Junior Champion accolades at Perth. His breeding programme has also produced prize-winning bulls that have topped major sales and gone on to make their mark across the UK and Ireland.

When judging, Will says he will be looking for cattle with power, style, correctness and true breed character.
