This all depends on what you want to show, or what is most popularly shown in the ring, such as Shorthorn, Angus, Simmental, etc. Any breed is good, but you really got to know what to look for in order to win. You need to have a breed that has good growth, trimness, is structurally sound (feet, legs, topline, head, neck, etc.), good body capacity (deep chest and belly for feed intake), adequate frame size, must weigh at least 550 lbs at weaning (205 days of age), make an ADG of 3.0 lb per day from weaning to slaughter, have a feed efficiency of 6.0 lb of feed per pound of gain, weigh over 950 lb at 12 months, etc. Finding the perfect steer is much harder than having the judge look at your animal when you are showing him.
