    Chewing tobacco
    Just started dipping again. Redman longcut straight

    This stuff is hard to kick when all you can do is work and play golf. I'm in Savannah GA right now of all places

    Favorite brand, and stuff?

      Back when I used smokeless tobacco, my preferences were:

      Snuff - Copenhagen

      Chew - Red Man

                Skoal pouches (whatever flavor). Yeh pouches are pussy, but ten times easier to deal with.

                  Skoal straight, mostly due to it its convenience.

                  Redman if I am fishing, but I haven't been able to go much over the past year.

                      Used to dip mint skoal. Kicked it. Don't know if I'll be able to stay off it during baseball and golf season though. I'll do my best.

                              Dip I prefer Skoal mint, and chew I prefer Redman. Don't really do either as much as I used to, but agree its hard not to on the golf course or playing baseball or softball.

                                    Kodiak, FTW!

                                    I dipped that stuff for 8 years after smoking for ten. And I don't live in a place nor engage in a profession where there's a lot of people walking around with big honking lippers in their mouths. That might be one of the reasons I liked it so much. Quitting was one of the most difficult things I've done. And indeed I do still miss it sometimes. But that shit is disgusting and unhealthy. It has the benefit of not being aggressively anti-social as smoking, but it's still ******* gross. And, truthfully, strikes me as fairly juvenile now. Still....I do feel the urge now and again. But I'm three 1/2 years out so that's all in the rear view.

                                    But If you want to quit, you can.

                                        I used to only dip when I was playing baseball. Now its just about everyday. Its a hard habbit to kick.
                                        i prefer grizzly wintergreen Long cut.

                                          Indeed I did.

                                          It was a couple of months before my wedding and I was at the funeral of the step-mother of my wife-to-be and I hated the fact that all i could think about was how I could sneak a lipper. Also I really didn't want to be married (to a doctor!) and still dipping. So I decided that I wasn't going to get married as an addict. And I didn't!

                                                    Nah...getting married isn't as bad as some make it out to be.

                                                        Smoke/chew on cigars. Better for you than dipping.

                                                          i dipped skoal straight and smoked......doctor offered me chantix, i didn't have any intentions of quitting, and once i started the pills it was over that easy no withdrawals........

                                                          but the medicine has some serious side affects

                                                              I dipped for around 7 years in high school and all through college... quit cold turkey on the millenium.

                                                              Didn't have a single dip for 10 years and last summer went camping and bought a fuking tin of my old pal Skoal Mint.

                                                              I honestly told myself it was only for the trip and that was it... yeah right. It took about a month before I was at 2 lippers a day.

                                                              During this stint, my whole thought process was that I was going to quit again this past new years... I did, and have not had one since.

                                                              No joke, about 2 hours ago, before seeing this thread I just told my wife that I was craving a dip more than I have since I quit.

                                                              BTW, the reason I quit the first time was because my roomate at school had a fukin huge growth on the inside of his lip that had to be cut out... at 22 years old and he dipped like a champ.
