1.)Put it in with one hand.I find that the worst part about putting in a chew, is having to do it with two hands. If you can do it with one hand(hold the chew in two fingers, and push your lip out as far as you can, put it in, and pack it with your tounge)you get Steve's thumb's up.
2.)Hide your chew/spit.There are many ways to hide your chew or spit bottle. Here are some of them:1st, move your chew around in your mouth. Everyone has a favorite spot, but move it around to concele it.
3.)Pack your entire lip right across with tiny dips, so you have a small buldge along the bottom. This takes time, but its worth not getting caught.
4.)An Iced Tea bottle with a litte left up to the lable, makes the perfect spitoon. You can spit in it all you want, and it looks like iced tea.
5.)Learn how to swallow. You can't have a bottle everywhere, so learn. It may taste gross no matter how times you do it, but learn.
6.)Don't Let Anyone Smack Your Can!!! When somebody asks to smack your can, don't let them, unless you trust them. I have two friends:Rob, I don't care if he smacks it, but Andre' gives me goosebumps.
7.)One can at a time. Make sure that you don't open more than one can at a time. I am extremely guilty of this and in result I end up with a lot of dry chew that I find laying under the seat of my car, or in the basement by the washing machine. I guess the only tip I can give you on this is to know where your tin is at all times. It is your life source.
8.)Learn not to produce saliva. I can't really explain how to do this. It's just something I taught myself so that when I go into a store with a dip in my mouth doesn't fill up with chew spit. That can be a pretty shitty thing when you have to answer a clerk's question about a shoe size or something to do with why your credit card won't go through. I have this art down to a form. In fact, I can sleep for a couple hours without spitting or having to swallow. Pretty nifty eh?
9.)Learn how to spit out of a moving car. Alot of dippers I've seen aren't very good at this. They either spit, and get it all back in their face, or it coats the side of the car. Producing the non-factory issued "Texas Pin Striping." Aim for the front corner of the window, get your face close to the window, and give it one good straight stream of spit. This may sound petty, but when your riding in your mom's brand new car, or getting a ride home from someone you barely know, this is a polite thing to know how to do.
10.)Learn how to eat and drink while dipping. This is hard. Learning to drink while dipping is quite simple actually. Just tighten your lip over your dip and let the beer, pop, water, etc. go over your lip and you'lle have it down. Eating is another story. All I can really say about this is that it's like juggling. You have to make sure that the two items (Dip and Food) are in their own respective areas of your mouth. You have to teach your dip to share with the second most important thing to you, your food.
