[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 31677"] Tapered bowls concentrate and intensify the nic hit of the tobaccos smoked in them as you reach the bottom. Virginia flakes do best in shorter, 13/16" (interior) diameter bowls. Second choice would be 3/4" rather than 7/8." Bent bulldogs, authors, princes &c. are your best point of departure for these. For English & similarly cut mixtures, 7/8" -- 15/16" is reasonable. Billiard, Dublin, whatever. Avoid getting anything big at first -- after a while it may not get smoked that often. Straight and nearly straight pipes, generically, smoke drier than bents do. [/QUOTE]
