I'm with you, man, I'd like to be able to do it but just can't manage. I did do it once by accident, though ... it was a huge ring that held it's shape for a really long time and expanded a-la-Gandolph, lol. It was sweet, but I haven't been able to replicate it.
I do it when I'm bored and by myself. Don't want to be "that guy."

i do. it's fun!
Or the name of his dog. :squinteye
Any who, I haven't done this in awhile but mostly because I fell out of the habit.
I do rings once in a while. All in good fun. My cousin gets frustrated because he can do it with pot smoke but not a cigar. LOL
now THAT is funny!!
Yup, I blow smoke rings.
What you need to remember to make good rings is that the ring is an effect that comes about when you start to blow smoke then stop, but fairly rapidly. You can see a shadow of a smoke ring every time you exhale while making that "oh" face... new smoke enters the center of the cloud while the old smoke curls to the outside.
Knowing this is how a ring forms was the ticket for me. Just make your "Oh" face before exhaling, and while exhaling start and stop very quickly. Some brothers make small coughing sounds as they work the back of their toung to start and stop the flow of smoke.
Once you start to see rings form as you "pulse" your smoke... you can start to experiment with one at a time, or different sizes.
The only other thing to remember is to be gentle, and not to try in the wind... you want the smoke to be "puffed" or "billowed" out of your mouth, not "blown" out.
don't know if that helps anyone with their quest...but i thought I'd toss out two pennies.
Good luck.

I love it when a cigar produces plenty of smoke and there's no wind outside, it's the perfect condition for blowing rings.
Tip: it's not so much blowing, as pushing smoke out with the back of your tongue.

I blow smoke rings when the air is still where I am. Its kind of habit at this point.
