Depends, if i got a whole bud, i break it up into like 4's then place it like puzzle pieces into my bowl(sometimes less pieces cuz smaller bowl) if its shake+bud, i put a tiny nug to fill the hole at the bottom, then load all the shake on top. I sometimes load normal bowls like that. Put one at the bottom to cover the hole, then just load it on top(this makes it harder to hit tho)
