@PipeIT I like smoking a clay pipe because of English Civil War and Redcoat / Napoleonic era re-enactment.Ahhh this is why you puffing like a Train in your YouTube videos, I was like damm, why this guy puffing so fast. LOL ?
I always thought too, that Pipe Smoking Competitions, were to see who could make the bowl last the longest, not to see who can smoke the fastest. LOL
And I guess this is why you like smoking a Clay Pipe, because that is what the Competition will be using.
Good Luck! ?
I was puffing like a steam train in the original videos as I wasn't used to smoking a pipe and was worried about it going out. I would like to improve my slow smoking times as well!!!
Good Day Folks, home mix in a Rattray's.
Billy Budd in a no-name bent volcano
John Patton Moe's Confetti in a Boswell billiard. I'm surprised this doesn't get more mention from the burley/codger fans. Just slightly more aromatic than Carter Hall, but doesn't get rough in the middle of the bowl like some other blends. I would put the topping strength somewhere between Lane Ready Rubbed and Carter Hall.
Billy Budd Blonde in my at the office cob
Finishing two bowls from yesterday. Germains Special Latakia Flake in a Stanwell royal guard 207.Then I have the remains of a bowl of ten year old Capstan Blue in a Savinelli 614 waxed pipe all very tasty. Drinking hot Tea
Good Day Folks, Skiff mix in a Blakemar.

Good Day Folks, Squadron Leader in a Parker
Smoking D&R Picayune in a MM Hardwood. Diet Coke is my drink as I wait for the electrician. What a beautiful day it is here in Dixie.
Finishing up a bowl of Sutliff 515 RC-1 in an Altinay meer, drinking black coffee...the flavor train is a'rollin' 
Good day all. Just finishing some old (2005-06?) LJ Peretti Rum Flake in an Upshall sandblast Bulldog with hex shank and saddle stem size 4. Next up is some equally old LJ Peretti Tashkent in an Upshall smooth Bulldog with hex shank and saddle bit size 5.
