running wires for recessed
I am wondering what the best/easiest/most effecient way of running the wires for a recessed install would be. I would have to go through 4, maybe 5, joists. Does anybody have any experience with those long flexible drill bits and if so, do they work well? Or would I be better off taking a channel out of the ceiling and patching it when I'm done? I consider myself pretty handy, so patching a few holes isn't a problem. Any input is appreciated. Thanks.

The long flex bits can work. You risk hitting any wires or pipes that may be in the way between the two endpoints.
I almost drilled through the floor above when the bit went high. Only saw it when I got to the other end.
