What would you say is the most competitive Junior Market Beef show in the country? The "Superbowl" or the "Crowning Jewel" if you will. I know Houston is very tough.

If you take the respective Breed Nat'l Jr show out of the picture, then I would say NAILE.
Fort Worth, but only open to Texas families.
Kansas City, anyone can fit. Top 50% of each class are really good ones that most likely have hung multiple banners. Top 2 in each class get into the sale. Premium sale is solid.
Denver, but fitting is limited. Good numbers, lots of good steers, and Denver does have some mystique about it. Top 2 in each class make the sale. These things are mammoth haired and they all look like bad asses. Premium sale is strong.
NAILE, anyone can fit. They only sell 2 which I believe keeps some people away. Numbers aren't huge but quality is pretty good.
Aksarben was strong this year due to the pandemic and State Fair issues all over the midwest. That show went 5 deep in every class and 7 or 8 deep in the heater classes. I don't remember how many they sell but I believe it is 2 from each division. They don't bring stupid money but it is decent.
