Default hot melt glue?

I've seen lots of references to using hot melt glue (HMG) to stick scrap
blocks to bowl blanks.

Is there a "preferred" formulation of HMG (are there different
formulations?)

What about quantity of HMG used (a few blobs vs "smear it everywhere you
can think of")?

It just seems to me that most of the HMG that I've seen barely holds 2
pieces of paper together, let alone a large hunk of wood spinning at
several hundreds of RPMs.

TIA,
Bruce
