Jack had his sights set on taking the Senior title this year. He flew through the county round of Dairy Stockjudging which was held in a farm in Mid Kerry.
On Thursday the 7th July Jack attended the National Finals in Bruree, Co Limerick. While Jack claims “there was tough competition”, he was successful again in bringing home the title.
Kerry County Chair Katie McCarthy said “This is a massive achievement and needs all the recognition as it is not every year a Macra member brings home 2 titles in 2 years.”
