Bindawarra Merino stud principals Steve and Lisa Harrison from Giffard West have won the Gippsland Sheep Breeders Association wether trial.
The trial completed its third year on Friday at the East Gippsland Field Days, Bairnsdale.
Second place went to John and Trevor Bennett of Everton.
Third place was won by Doug and Lou Pemberton of Nicholson.
For Bindawarra the win was a trifecta.
They have won three overall (three-year) trials in a row.
"It shows we're on the right track and that our sheep perform," Mr Harrison said.
