The Ridgway Advance Stud is owned and managed by David & Karen Ridgway trading as 'The Ridge-Stock Trust'

Their Dedication and Commitment to the Merino Industry combined with a progressive vision and hands on approach has seen the Stud create its own geno-type.

The home base of David & Karen Ridgway is in the Senior area 32 km north of Bordertown in South Australia's South East, with other holdings 15km & 20 km north of Bordertown, north west of Lameroo in the Murray Mallee and at Wrattonbully, south-east of Naracoorte (near the Victorian Border).

Philosophy of the Stud principals has always been to combine frame, constitution and elite wool fibre, not compromising carcass attributes or wool cut.
 The Ridgway Advance sheep are plain, long and heavy bodied, producing soft, free growing wool with exceptional staple length, capable of thriving in a broad range of climatic conditions.

The uniformed genetic makeup of the Modern Merino within the Advance flock offers a Complete, Predictable Merino Package for all clientele.
