    Unhappy Throat burning issue

    Hey guys,
    I was hoping someone could give me some advice. Lately I've just been completely turned off toking, and I'm not sure what to do. I used to toke from a spoon and occasionally joints, back in my younger years but believe it or not I never hit a bong until about 5 or so years after.
    I just bought my first bong, and it's all new and exciting to me. But the last few times I've tried it, I've burnt my throat pretty bad (looking in the mirror, I could see it was very red/irritated). The funny thing is I never experienced this with my small spoon and Js. So am I doing something wrong? Why is my throat getting burned on something that is supposed to filter smoke better?
    I always fill my bong with ice cold water, and place ice cubes in the chamber. Am I taking way too big of rips or something? I don't really know how to judge bong rips, slightly embarrassing...
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks guys!

    I definitely take much bigger hits when I use a water filter. The colder the water, the more chambers, the more I take in before I know what I'm chewing on.

    heh same here man, smoking for ages... got my first bong like 4 weeks ago....

    -

    As u say, the hits are huge.... so what i do is, i can fill it to my expected level, then i pull out that thing u put weed in, and put it back in to fill the bong up again, that way i dont cough my brains out ^^

    but i dont like bongs, a joint is 10x better for chilling, but with friends 2 bong hits are good

    Yeah like someone said just fill up the chamber a little and then clear it, and if you have more lung space keep doing it until you're full or right before your throat starts to hurt.
    One good thing about music is when it hits, you feel no pain.

    The great blessing of mankind are within us and within our reach; but we shut our eyes, and like people in the dark, we fall foul upon the very thing we search for, without finding it.
