OK, I get it about P-lips. I own several. I like 'em. Not love 'em, like 'em.

The POTY is a gorgeous pipe. I'm afraid I'm already hooked.

Put a fork in me. I'm done!

Petes just don't look "Pete" enough without p-lips to me. Am not a clencher. So, it's just an aesthetic thing for me. Only 2 of my Petersons have fishtails and those models were never offered with p-lip. Whenever there is a choice, I always go with the p-lip. As I understand it, that pipe will only be offered with a p-lip.

This is going to be sold out in 5 minutes.
They're certainly nice, but I wouldn't go that far. You can still find 2017s without too much trouble. I do believe the first delivery of them might go pretty quick. The shape is something that many fans of the old bull moose Petersons are going to be excited about.

Big Congrats , Yer a brave Dude, remember the Alamo as they say,and I do know this was rather a spendy Item,
It was about 50 dollars less than what they were showing on Laudisi.com prior to release. I was actually thinking I wouldn't be able to get one until later, but I had enough extra set back, so it worked out :D

Congrats Anthony. If I wasn't very lucky to already own an old John Bull I'd bought off a member at another pipe forum years ago, this would be a very tempting pipe for me. While I do like the look of the current 999, I always thought it wasn't big and beefy enough for me to consider seriously. With the new Peterson rustication, I love the rusticated finish of the 2019 POTY. I really think they ought to permanently replace the 999 with this.

Agreed. And give the current 999 it's old number back, 998. I mean, what was the point in the number change to begin with? That's akin, for example, to getting rid of the 106 and then calling the 105 a 106. I see no point.
Edit to add: hypothetically of course

Snagged a 999 blast. And I can hardly wait to fire that baby up. It is my first POTY from Peterson and first John Bull Rodi.
