I like the Romeo Y Julieta HAVOC Fat Churchill Habano.    I have to admit though, I also like Dutch Masters Corona Deluxe.  As a kid growing up, that is what my Great-Grandfather smoked.   Maybe it's the nostalgia of them but I honestly like them, even though they are cheap..

Razr Fit Xtreme 9.5* Matrix Black Tie shaft, Diablo Octane 3 wood 15*, Razr X Hybrid 21*, Razr X 4-SW, Forged Dark Chrome 60* lob wedge, Hex Chrome & Hex Black ball

Some so-and-so sold me a fake one of those a few years back. Tasted like a 5-year-old Dutch Master. I've been very distrustful ever since. I don't smoke cigars a lot, but when I do its usually

Ok, maybe you should take it up with them, and if they don't care, perhaps you should not play with them anymore.

I don't drink or smoke, but I don't mind the smell of cigar smoke. I play with a guy from time to time who does. He is always trying to get me to start. I tell him that maybe when I am 70 I will. :)

Good for you! I'm starting to lean that way as well lately too. I do drink occasionally, but get basically nothing out of it, so I'd just as soon stick to iced tea or diet soda. ;) Anyway, on topic ... Somehow I've made it to 40 years old and have never once smoked a cigar. I don't even know how! However, like Cipher, I do like the smell of them so I don't particularly mind at all when others smoke them near me. :)

Still a little new here.  Hope there's no issue reviving a thread that has been dormant for a few months.

I enjoy a cigar on the golf course.  I'm not an every day smoker and wouldn't smoke cigarettes if you paid me to.  Just don't like the taste or smell.

My go to cigars are:

Drew Estate Undercrown

Arturo Fuente Hemingway Signature

Natrual by Drew Estate

I smoke 2-3 cigars per week with 1-2 of them coming on the golf course and the other coming on the balcony of my apartment with a glass of Maker's Mark on the rocks.

I'm no cigar expert, but I certainly enjoy a good cigar when golfing (or any time, really). The last one I smoked was a CAO LX2 and it was quite tasty. They are great for keeping gnats away, too!

I had a Padron '64 maduro on my birthday a few days ago.

It was the first I'd had and it was great.

Nice, That's by far my favorite cigar especially in the torpedo.  When golfing  I go for a nice Padron 3000 or 6000 relatively cheap stick at 6-7 bucks.

My favorite, Romeo y Julieta, they are not too strong.

If you prefer good tasting/smelling cigars that aren't too strong... Def check out the H. Upmann Original

Agreed...., H. Upmann makes some very good sticks...., a bit on the pricey side but just like anything else, you get what you pay for.

Punch. Although it is extremely rare I would puff on one. I actually hate smoking all the way around. But if someone offers a Punch in a swanky club house with a nice single malt scotch... I give in.. Wedding.. New baby.. Bachelor party maybe...But again I rarely drink or almost never ever smoke.

I don't care for the large cigars because they take too long to smoke. I think I could enjoy a few Havana Ovals during a round, though.

      A Novice Journey to Building a Bag. (Help Appreciated)

      By retoid ·

      First off please forgive me if this is not a proper post or not in the proper location, still learning the ropes around here. Second, it's important that I mention I am very new to the game with only about 10 rounds of golf under my belt, most being 9 holes. Only this year have I started playing 18. That being said, I am hooked, love the game and am very eager to learn and improve. To give you an idea of my skill, the last 2 18 rounds I played were 110 and 105. Not great at all, however I am slowly improving as I learn. Had been having bad slicing issues with the driver and hybrids but after playing some more and hitting the range, I've been able to improve on that quite a bit and have been hitting more straight on average. Irons have always come easier to me as far as hitting straight for some reason. Wedges have needed a lot of improvement, but I practice chipping about 20-30 mins about 3-5 times a week and that's helped a lot. Today I went to the range and started to note down some distance data, mind you I am averaging the distances based off my best guess compared to the distance markers on the range. I do not currently own a range finder or tracker. From reading some similar posts I do understand that filling gaps is ideal, but I am having a some issues figuring out those gaps and understanding which clubs to keep and remove as some gaps are minimal between clubs. Below is an image of the chart I put together showing the clubs and average distances I've been hitting and power applied. For some reason I am hitting my hybrids around the same distances and I am not sure why. Wondering if one of them should be removed. I didn't notice a huge loft difference either. The irons I have are hand me downs from my grandfather and after playing with them a bit, I feel like they're just not giving me what could potentially be there. The feel is a bit hard/harsh and underwhelming if that makes sense and I can't seem to get decent distances from them. Wondering if I should be looking to invest in some more updated irons and if those should be muscle backs or cavity backs? My knowledge here is minimal. I have never played with modern fairway woods, only the classic clubs that are actually wood and much smaller than modern clubs. I recently removed the 4 and 5 woods from my bag as I was never using them and I don't hit them very well or very far. Wondering if I should look into some more modern fairway wood options? I appreciate any feedback or advice anyone is willing to give, please forgive my lack of knowledge. I am eager to learn! Thank you.

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By snapfade ·

      I would think that 3 in a row with the same players might get some behind the scenes examination from the SCGA if they were suspect.  Are there any clubs questioning the results?

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By iacas ·

      What simple fact? A golf match is not a coin flip — there is a fact for you. I'm trying to help you, and you're throwing out what could easily be called sour grapes. Come with FACTS, not weak analogies. Then you've got nothing. Hopefully they've done a better job of making their case. 😛

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By Big C ·

      It's pretty close. The odds of a 50/50 shot going your way 21 times are greater than 1 in a million!  I guess your point is, that simple fact is not enough to declare these guys dirty rotten sandbaggers. I disagree, but fair enough. I posted it here on the message board to get different perspectives, after all.  I probably won't be digging further into specific scores. I have no dog in this fight beyond a generalized contempt for sandbagging. With that said, it would not surprise if a lot of clubs shared my concern and were grousing about it to the SCGA.
