breaking all the Snus rules...am I doomed to fail?

[Monkey]

Today I was with a big dipping crowd and wasn't about to pull out my Icetool and play 20 questions.

I pulled out my can of Gotland's Gul, packed it a few times and threw in a big old pinch back by my molars where I used to dip. It was delicious, did not make a mess and gave me a hell of a buzz (which was not expected or appreciated) After the initial giant pinch, I went for smaller pinches but kept it in the bottom all day. Worked like a charm. I didn't spit once and really didn't have much to "gut" (but i never did when I dipped in that spot either).

I'm confident any seasoned dipper who is accustomed to fine cut or snuff will have no problem controlling a coarser cut snus in the bottom. I'm sure I could do it fine with a cut like General's based on the way it handles in the top. The dip skills I already had definitely helped.

The only ones I will not attempt in the bottom are Roda and the Gotebourgs snuses but, after today, I think it kinda grew on me a little and I might just do this a little more often.

I had my (almost) 4 year old son with me and when I first did this he yelled, "Dad! Where's your snos?!?! Why do you have cockies in your mouth again?!?!" He stopped yelling when I showed him the tin.

lol i'm getting pumped up to give this a run!
i truely live in bumblefug norcal and no tobacco shops around so i'm at the mercy of northerner but it was all usa warehoused.
so hopefully it gets here soon, running a chain saw without a pinch of tobacco? jesus weeps.
the thought of american snuff, though, disgusts me

More specifically I work in Fire and Copenhagen is standard issue for most of my coworkers.
using that tool thingie, using a fancy pouch w/lid trashcan, spending ten minutes making a prilla...not gonna happen.
*sigh* i was afraid of your first paragraph...these rules are in place for a reason. Still gonna give it a try...I kinda baked regular fine cut dip in a smiliar fashion to the snus hillbilly style...played with it in the can molding it.
I'm gonna attempt that style with my order and hope for the best i want to be a snusser...but only if it works for me.

Check out the guy in this video at 1:24 - 1:40. I doubt if you use snus like this anyone would say anything..
