In cannabis culture, a dugout pipe refers to a small, discreet smoking device designed for portability and stealth.
Dugouts combine storage for ground flowers with a small built-in one-hitter bat.
Their low profile and simplicity make them ideal for travel and quick sessions.
What is a Dugout?
A dugout consists of a slim rectangular wooden or aluminum box measuring roughly 2 x 4 inches. Inside, one compartment holds a small metal smoking bat or chillum.
The other larger compartment stores ground cannabis ready for smoking.
To use, simply pack flowers from the storage chamber into the bat, light up, and enjoy a quick hit.
The tight seal created allows for excellent discreetness with little smell or smoke leakage. Dugout boxes are made to look innocuous from the outside. Most hold up to an eighth of ground bud.
How to Use a Dugout?
Using a dugout involves these easy steps:
- Grind a small amount of flowers and pack it into the storage compartment.
- When ready to smoke, load material into the metal one-hitter bat.
- Find a discreet spot, light the packed end, and inhale slowly.
- Blow out the ash and residue to prepare for the next use.
- Refill the bat as needed for quick, stealthy sessions on the go.
With their simplicity and stealth, dugouts remain the go-to devices for discreet cannabis enjoyment almost 50 years after being introduced.
