I think this is an art more than a science. Learning to pack just rite according to the type of tobacco you are using. I never did get it down when I smoked.

Hah!!! The two finger puff worked great for me. I appreciate any tips I can get.

Before I resort to a relight, instead of the two finger technique, I usually try holding one side of the pipe with my palm, and the other side with my finger tips, so that the bowl is covered by my hand. When I first started smoking, I used the lighter to cover up the bowl if it was going out.

I'll have to give both of the tips you explained a try. Thanks for sharing.
