In what context? Some people clip at Christmas for summer shows, and others clip twice per year for longwool breeds. And it's certainly better than flystrike.

Sheep were sheared by hand in April due to an issue with fly, what do you feel about them being sheared again now. They are looking a bit scruffy because they were hand sheared as we had no electricity on the field at the time.

If it's just for aesthetics I wouldn't do it now as it just means adding unnecessary stress.

Wouldn't they get cold over winter without their wool?
