John Patton's Storm Front in my RDPipes Devil Anse. Custom made by our member of the BoB Ron Powell. I have accumulated many pipes over the past 48 years, this Devil Anse is one of my top 3 favorites. Not for its beauty and superb craftsmanship, but for the way it smokes.....OUTSTANDING!



KEEP ON PUFFING!!!
 
My simple anytime blend when aged for a minimum of 1 year happens too also be one of my top 10 favorites:

C&D Bayou Night 60% and Lane Burley & Black 40% aged just over 1 year. I smoke this like a FREIGHT TRAIN and absolutely NO bite. I pack the pipe firm 3/4 of the way and get close to a 60 minute very enjoyable smoke.

Pipe of choice: Savinelli Series III UNFINISHED BILLIARD pipe. Has 11 huge fills but it's a superb smoking pipe. I did finish the briar with Bee's wax and mineral oil mixture. I've smoked this pipe over 500 times and the briar now developed a dark chocolate color. But the fills still stand out.




KEEP ON PUFFING!!!

Just gave this fugly but great smoker an overhaul and waxing
All 11 fills still POP....lol.

Three Star Blue in my custom made Don Warren Morta Poker Pipe with a straight shank and ebonite stem. This pipe was made to my specifications, as far as the size of the bowl and chamber dimensions. Great smoker and very well crafted.

Man, it's another beautiful day in Pinehurst (kind of an inside joke round these parts, it's the greeting you get whenever you call most any of the Pinehurst resort #'s)

But, it truly is a beautiful day, hence my stepping out to the company lounge and enjoying a fantastic bowl of Dunhill MM 965 in my trusty ol Bent Bulldog (office pipe). All while sippin Arnold Palmer with bergs.
