I think the bowl is always going to be a more powerful hit. But, I agree. If stuff is fire I always prefer a jurnt. It's more mellow and my old lungs don't handle the power of a hit from a bowl like they used to. I also have smoked cigs for probably more than 30 years. Anyway. Jurnts are my fav. But, amongst people I know that are not used to dank, they like to use the bowls. I keep a bowl tho. In case I run out of papers. Smoking from a home made drink can crack pipes like thing sux. I used to vape too. But, I found myself setting it on the highest temp. Like 500 so I get the most out of the herb. I like it all. Not just the THC. Vaping kief is where it's at tho homie. Anyway, after years my vape died so it's like 99.9% jurnts. And I get so high I'm like on a different planet. Just realized. I ain't hit a jurnt today. First buzz. Oh yeah baby.
