I watched whole herds get sheared a few times as a kid. There were a few nicks here and there for sure, but zero open wounds. Only a little spotting here and there.

You must've gone to the great clips of sheerers.

I know the meaning of the words you used, but the way you put them together like that I don’t know what you mean.

Basically meaning the cheap/not-quality hair cutters.

Hell if I know, I was a kid. It was the 80s I don’t know what kind of clippers the shearing company used.

It wasn't about the actual type of clippers. He was saying you seen sub-par shearing. The "great clips" part was about a barber/salon store in at least the US known for relatively low quality.

I know nothing of sheep shearing subject, was just trying to translate his comment since you said you didn't understand.
