If that stuff is as high priced as the honors program it will not work in this area. Many people are not feeding honors anymore because of the price. $23/bag does not work in this area. In the parts of the US where jackpots are all over the place, I then can see paying for that stuff. It is good feed, but is cost prohibitive in this area.

I dont think it makes a difference how many jackpots there are in your area? Gas, entry fees, and feed still cost the same. Even if you win a show all it pays for is gas and entry fees. Has nothing to do with it.
I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.
