Cant smoke at work, so I usually have a bowl on the way home and then 3-4 before days end. On the weekend I get up with a bowl and go to bed with a bowl so not sure on the weekends.

I mostly smoke 3/4 filled group 3's or MM Pride's which lasts for 20-30 min so its fairly small bowls.

Usually around 10 bowls or so a day. I smoke small pipes, so it comes out to about 4 ounces a week.

Depends on the size of the bowl. Smoking a large bowl requires more time than I have, so I either relight a partially smoked bowl later, or do partial fills. Either way, from 2 to 5 large bowls most days. Then I'll take a break from smoking for several days every few weeks to give my mouth tissue a break.
I gave up cigs in 1983. Went from two packs a day to zero with a snap of the fingers. I was leaving the lot and finishing the last cigarette in the pack as I walked out the gate and thought to myself, "Don't think I'll buy another pack until I really want one." 31 years later I still don't want one.
I didn't smoke anything for close to a decade before taking up the pipe again.

1-3 per day. Rarely do I go a day without, but usually it's just one or two. Sometimes 3. I think I've had 4 in a day maybe twice in the last few years.

As of now, about 2 or 3 bowls. 4 if you count the bowl of Cheerios I have each morning.

5-6 bowls a day Mon-Fri and 6-8 a day on weekends. About 1/3 of them small bowls on the walk to/from the office and when I'm buzzing around in the car. English outside, Dunhill DNR/Escudo/Directors Cut around the house.

I usually only smoke twice a week. A couple of bowls on Monday, and a few on Friday when our club meets. Sometimes I'll smoke something somewhat heavy in a big bowl and nurse it for a couple of hours and that's all ill have that day... That being said, I have totally had weeks when I smoke all day 4 or 5 days a week!

I find it amazing how some people smoke more than 4 bowls per day. I just don't have that much spare time, as I don't smoke in my car or my house, and in NJ you really are vilified for smoking anything but medical marijuana. I wish I had 4-5 hours to kill for smoking. Congrats to those that get to enjoy that many bowls per day, I am truly envious.

I'm with you, yaz. Average size bowl lasts 1-1.5 hours so getting in 2 per day is about it for me. Much of my work can be done on iPad so I'm able to sit out on patio and work when necessary. But I prefer to spend the time quietly thinking or chatting with my wife.

Usually one a day and 2-3 on special occasions. Most I've ever done in a day was 5 and that almost ruined me. Right now, I'm at less than 1 per week until we sell the house.

Weekdays: 4 to 6. One with a coffee as soon as I get up. Normally another one on the way to work, though I often don't get to finish it. One at lunch. One straight after work. One or two in the evening.

Weekend days: 6 to 8.
Today: 5 so far. I was about to have my sixth pipe of the day when my girlfriend actually complained that I smoke too much.

Unprecedented! It's a fair comment though so as a sign of respect I waited half an hour before starting it.

I also do not smoke cigs and I can be seen at almost any time of day with a pipe hanging out of my mug, just ask my wife. That being said, I generally smoke 3-4 bowls a day with exceptions. If it's an incredibly long day where I'm up very early and stay up very late, 5 bowls. I suppose my smoking style is like a good BBQ, low and slow:)
