Hi all
I have just recently started smoking. Problem is I suffer from a bit of sensitive gag reflex. Simply put when I have the stem clenched between my teeth and let go of the pipe with my hand it tends to set my reflex off.
I have a few different pipes they include a Savinelli church warden 601, a large bent meerschaum, a bent corncob, a bent apple and a small Butz Choquin mini church warden.
All these pipes seem to trigger it to different degrees.
I would like to know if any body has the same problem and if so is their a specific type of pipe or stem, that will help me? Is it just something that I have to deal with or will it get better with time like holding a respirator in your mouth while scuba diving.
