I have now given dripping 4 good honest tries, and I just can't get the hang of it. I seem to be getting all TH and vapor, no flavor, and even if I add one drop at a time I flood the atty. I'm wondering if it's the attys and not me...are the ones that come with the eGo kit not the best? I have the genuine Joye eGo, no idea on the resistance of the attys or anything. I have tried both of the ones that came with the kit and did not notice any difference between the two.

I had a hard time dripping at first as well. Not sure if it's the equipment or the juice but for whatever reason took me a while to get it to work for me. Now I use attys all the time w/ no problem.
Make sure you rule out the obvious and that you are shaking up the juice, putting about 3 drops on the atomizer and blowing out the atty before your first try. It takes me a few "practice puffs" before I inhale to break in a new atomizer.
Don't know if this helps but you never know. Keep trying - it'll work. Try different variables in equipment or juice until you find out what works.

If it is a regular 510 atty on your ego that they come with and it isn't the tank setup I find the 510s fairly easy to drip but it is tough to find that sweet spot and not have a little leakage.
I use 70/30 juice. You might want to try some low resistance atomizers if you are not getting much flavor.
As for dripping, if you blow the atomizer out through the drip tip and out the battery connection into a paper towel, make sure you blow it out completely. Then put about 4 - 6 drops of liquid in and let it sit for a little, maybe 30 seconds. Then add another two drops and you should be able to vape about 8 or more drags(this varies a lot on your juice, drag time and power levels) and if you notice flavor or vapor start to drop add two more drops.
Dry hits are the worse and after a couple of them you will deal with leakage before running the chance of taking a dry hit.

I didn't know how to drip either until my cousin showed me a joye306 LR atty and a Cannon drip tip. I bought one after that and got addicted to dripping.
That being said, I run a 510 atty now on my KGO and drip on that, and run a boge 3 ohm carto on my Provari
You'll get the hang of it, the information the others posted should get you more comfortable. It's easy, but sometimes a PITA. The flavor of dripping is better than anything else though IMO.

I think the hardest part with dripping is when you can't just drip and vape all that you dripped at one sitting and are constantly on the go or busy and have to take a hit here or there. Keeping track gets hard to do. Which is the boat I am in, I will drip, take a hit or two, have to do something, come back take another hit or so, do something and I start forgetting if I need to drip again or if I just did the last time.
With that said I can't vape any other way. I love to drip.
If you end up liking dripping, a drip shield can be your best friend. Especially if you are on the go.

I second the 306 LR atty and a flute type tip. Blow it out when you get it to remove the primer that the factory installs to prevent oxidation and then add 3 drops the first time, then 2 drops each time the vapor starts to get harsh. More than 2 drops and you will flood it. The 306 has a large mesh bridge and the cup is designed to hold the liquid and prevent leaks.
If you get tired of dripping, try Boge LR cartos. Fill them as shown in the video below. Once you fill a new one this way to saturate it, you can add a few drops each time the filler turns white.

Thank you all for your suggestions. I made sure to blow out the attys before I started, and it's not that I'm getting a bad flavor, just no flavor at all. I do have a couple drip tips now, I'll try a LR atty next time I order anything. Thanks!
