'UP ON THE SHOULDER' - THE AUSTRALIAN STOCKMAN'S SPORT OF CAMPDRAFT
** Now available in both PAL (Australia) and NTSC (North America/Canada) formats.
A sport that has its origins in the life and work of the stockmen of the 1800s, a sport that is unique to Australia – that’s Campdraft. Life in the bush has changed in the last 150 years but the enduring sense of mateship, a love of the land, and the Aussie spirit of ‘having a go’ has made Campdraft a National sport. It’s part skill and finesse, part adrenalin pumping contact sport. 'Up on the Shoulder' takes a look at how the skills of the Australian Stockman are being preserved through competitions like Campdraft and the King of the Ranges.
Meet some Campdraft champions and characters of the bush. See some of Australia’s Top Stockmen and women compete in an event honouring Archie ‘Bung’ McInnes, regarded by many as one of the most accomplished bushmen of his time and known as the “King of the Ranges.” It’s a gruelling competition testing bushman’s skills of brumby catching, bronc riding, packhorse, whip cracking, roping and cross country – there’s even a billy boiling race! True Aussie sports at their best!
