- Godfrey_Bowen abstract "Walter Godfrey Bowen (13 February 1922 – 2 January 1994) was a New Zealand farmer and world acclaimed sheep shearer. With his brother Ivan, he developed the Bowen Technique which involved the shearer using his spare hand to stretch the sheep's skin, which improved the quality of the shorn fleece. They also introduced the idea of shearing sheep twice a year, which is now the usual practice in New Zealand.Bowen set a world record in 1953 by shearing 456 sheep in nine hours.Bowen, along with George Harford set up the Agrodome in Rotorua, which is still a popular tourist spot to this day. Tourists get to see a variety of sheep on display, see a sheep shorn and go on a tour of the farm. He died in Rotorua of a heart attack, leaving his wife and 4 children.".
