Shearing the right shoulder10. Right shoulder: Pull the sheep up and press the jaw backward. While holding the head back with the knees, push the right leg out of the way with your free hand to make the first stroke down the neck toward the brisket. Hold the front leg flat and straight on the sheep’s body, and continue with the strokes to clear the shoulder and top of the right leg.
