A better chance as opposed to what?
You can do either, but if you can't get PF jars right, you'll probably contaminate your casing soil.
By following the proper sterility, inoculation, colonization, and fruiting procedures for the species you wish to grow.
There you go.

what has me thinking about it is coast and work the coast is less for a one shot deal there is a lot less work using a bag than PF Tek most places that sell them say the shrooms can be fruited right from the bag

Less work, yes.
You could do the PF tek for less than 50 bucks if you're resourceful.
They can fruit from the bag.

from local sources (all but the spores)I got it down to $45.00 excluding the stuff I already have (like the stuff for making the glove box and fruiting chamber) I have found bags for about $20.00 this includes all but a PC the one I have is a 3quart bean cooker and I can't find jars that will fit in the bean cooker

i found a 3$ pot at a salvation army before i bought my pressure cooker, but i got a lot of contams. i would do pftek when starting out, but with a pressure cooker. not having the proper supplies is a bad idea, and a waste of time.
