Demonstrations
For the Woodchopping and
other Demonstrations times, see the Seminar page.
Sheep Shearing and Dog Trials will be occurring regularly
throughout both days.
Other demonstrations of all
sorts will also be occurring throughout the event. Some include Blacksmith, Wool spinning, Wood
splitting, Wood Turning, etc.
Laurence O'Toole will
be demonstrating his axemanship throughout Go Country! He was
born with logging in his blood and is a 3rd generation World
Champion Axeman. He has participated in logging sports for the
past 15 years. Currently, he holds 14 Australian titles and 4
word titles.
The Sunday morning ritual of World of
Sport, where they gained extensive fame on the blocks, is
now television history. He had to chop a log on Australia's
Got Talent. A flirty Dannii Minogue was more impressed with
his upper torso than his technique, her eyelashes fluttering as
he looked on knowingly.
Although he is virtually unknown here
outside woodchopping circles, he is a star in the Basque country
of Spain, where woodchopping is a popular sport. He also
features on US cable television, where woodchopping competitions
are televised, under the moniker The Chisel.
