Striking the Correct BALANCE for Sustainable Profitability 

Poll Merinos that are Predictable, Uniform and most Importantly Profitable.  

At the Ridgway Advance Poll Merino Stud the core philosophy is to Strike the Correct Balance.

Managed by David and Devon Ridgway, the stud prioritizes a consistent genetic approach that coordinates high reproduction rates with maximum meat and quality fibre yields. This philosophy ensures the flock thrives across all environments while remaining highly competitive in commercial markets. 

Distinctive Sheep, Ridgway Advance Merinos are immediately recognizable by their deep, square, heavy frame with good bone and structure. They consistently produce top-tier wool that is soft, bright and deep-crimping. Beyond their visual traits, these sheep are renowned for their high fertility—achieving predictable, even progeny that consistently perform.
