We have some competition shows around here and from what I've seen you have to be in the main click to win anything. I am only 21 so they kind of shun me but thats OK. I win stuff in the tractor rodeo every year. Those old guys can't keep up with a young buck. HA HA! I acually preffer shows that don't give awards. We have a show that gives you a dash plaque and a packet of show stuff and we are all happy. Everybody has a different level of craftsmanship and some are better than others, but some people spend alot of time on tractors. It takes me about a month to 2 months to fully restore a tractor providing I have all of the parts. Shows without awards don't make people mad because they didn't win anything. They usually have more stuff to do during the day anyhow. Even the tractor rodeo doesn't have awards, and there are more people in that rodeo just to have fun than there are at the one that gives awards. Also the shows without awards don't have to spend as much to put on a show so they can lower the gate fee or add something to the show to make it better. It is always a good feeling to get an award but the more people you get to talk to and admire your tractor and all it's glory is by far worth more than a ribbon.
