Craig 'Wiggy' Wiggins joined REX host Dominic George live at Fieldays and told him this year's fencing competitions are fiercely contested.
"The cadets are putting up a 2-wire electric fence over 30 meters, in the Bill Schuler competition they are putting up 40 meters of 3-wire electric fence," he said.
"Heaps of new competitors turned up for the heats and this year in the Silver Spades doubles competition there's a team flown out from England to have a go."
This is the first time that Fieldays has seen any international team come out and compete in any event.
"We are going to send a team over to England for their big competition from the winners of this."
Wiggins was also very impressed to see a number of young women competing at Fieldays.
He told George is something he hasn't seen in such strong numbers before and is amazing to see.
"That's a newbie for me to see them here, there are quite a lot of women that fence around the country and it's good to see some girls cracking in at an early age, awesome."
"There are a couple of young ladies in the fencing competition too. "
'Whatever with Wiggy' is a charity Wiggins set up to facilitate mental health support for Kiwis that is also keeping him plenty busy off the farm.
