I do both to be honest. Depends on flavors and what I'm using to vape. Mostly do a mouth hit then drag to lung hit, my preferred hit method.
Man, I've been vaping about four years, always doing deep mouth to lung inhales. I had tried direct lung hits from time to time but never got the hang of it. Finally a fellow vaper educated me on direct lung inhales. Damn, what a revelation. It took a few days of practice, but now I don't think I could ever go back. Much better taste, more vapor, and a better nic hit. I love the feeling in my chest as I breathe in. I'd def give direct lung inhales a try.

I think it boils down to airflow with me. If there is a ridiculous amount of airflow, I lung inhale without even thinking about it. If the airflow is restricted, I first puff and then draw the vape into my mouth before inhaling.

I restrict the airflow significantly on my Erlkonigin (RTA) so I can mouth inhale which is both more comfortable and tasty for me. If I open up the airflow control, I have to lung inhale since it's too much mouth acrobatics for a large draw. Mouth inhales usually give me TH after collecting it in my mouth and doing the final inhalation into my lungs. Lung inhales give me no TH until I exhale, and then the TH is a little harsher feeling. I general like mouth inhales and setup my RTA for those.
Mtl as a smoker
Mtl for four and a half years vaping on Joye 306s
Lung hitter since I got a Subtank Mini, which totally changed how I vape and there's no going back for me. Vaping is better for me now than it's ever been.
Mrs. Dr. still vapes mtl. Do what works for you and enjoy being able to breathe, smell and taste.

always been a mouth inhaler, but it's interesting to hear about other people's methods
I can totally get this as I'm coming off the cigs too. When I'm in a rush (work usually) and/or really craving nicotine I've developed a different method of inhale/exhale from my normal MTL. First I French inhale (which, according to YouTube, is evidently a cool vape trick, so yea! I rock.) and then I exhale through the nose as well. This serves the same purpose of giving me more nicotine absorption quicker.
Good topic. I had to figure this out on my own though I probably just didn't see where it's already been posted here.
I smoked cigs up until 6 months ago and only mouth inhaled. On my first couple vape setups I continued the mouth inhale. Now on a rebuildable I can get much better flavor, more intense anyway, with lung inhales.
Normally I do mouth hits. I can do lung hits for the cloud chasing. Anyone nose hits?
So let us in on your method? I also agree. I started with mouth to lung until I got used to it and was off the analogues for awhile. Now I virtually ONLY do lung inhales as it staves off the nicotine craving, gives me that throat AND lung it I used to get from analogues, and the flavour is better.
If I really want to savour the taste of a new juice I do repetitive mouth to lung, mouth to nose, lung to nose inhalations. Sort of breathe it out slowly so it rises up to your nose and suck it in from there as well as mouth and throat. That way I can REALLY taste all the juices nuances using both taste AND smell! I use a Nautilus with an eLeaf iStick 50W. (Actually I use my iStick 50W for everything it is so versatile).
I do all three. Mouth to lung, lung, mouth to nose, exhale using both mouth and nose and sorta use all my air intake holes to taste AND smell the juice. You don't eat sumptuos food with your nose closed do you? Smell to me is an adjunct to taste and both go hand in hand. Well that's IMO anyway!
I used to do mouth-to-lung inhales when I smoked my ryo tobacco. I don't think I've ever seen any smoker take direct-lung hits. But I'll pay more attention from now on... Now that I vape, I've tried various methods (also thanks to this thread 
). I prefer mouth-to-lung, sometimes exhaling through my nose. Direct lung-hits mute the flavour and make me cough. The clouds are nice though, but I don't use this method much.
Direct exhales through my nose (without inhaling first) are rough! It tingles my nose, but if I really need a nic-hit, that's how I do it. For throathit, I like to draw vapour into my mouth, then a quick and shallow inhale, followed by a slow exhale through my nose. This technique gives a lot of flavour as well.
The technique described by Taowulf was new to me, so I tried it. I have to agree, the flavour is great that way. But the throathit is too much, even for me (I use 12mg / ml). Perhaps I may have finally found a way to reduce my nic, I will experiment further. But, thank you Taowulf! You taught a vaper of 16 months something new

I use to mouth to lung hit the analogs, but prefer lung hit with rta's. Tanks I use both methods.
OK, so I've been trying lung hits this afternoon using the technique where you barely touch your lips to the drip tip and you inhale. Holy c**p! I definitely feel the vapor going into my lungs and I have noticed that the vapor production increases by at least 50-75% as opposed to doing a mouth to lung hit. Not what I expected at all. I can begin to really like this.
I got a subtank mini just to try lung hits, even though I'm a mouth to lunger, but 18 mg juice, which is what I use normally, is way too strong to lung hit for me. Guess I'll try the tank again when I get some 3 or 6 mg juice.
