I love an Ashton. Nice and mild and cheap. I have to be in the mood though. I'll go for a pinch on the course any day though...

If I buy from the internet, it's from Cigars International (

Indeed. CI is a great resource, as is

J&R; Cigars . CI has the Vegas5 brand which does not let me down. The best cigar for me is the Hoyo de Montery Epicure #2, but I smoke as many as four cigars on a Saturday (27 holes) and these genuine Cubanos are too expensive. I get decent cigars from CI or J&R; for around $3-$4 a stick on average. Get your Cubans from Gérard Père et Fils or Pablamos . SubPar

Anybody ever placed an order from http://www.thecigarfo.com?

I was thinking about their "this is not a short story" but don't really want to be stuck with 25 if I don't care for them.

For whatever reason I almost never smoke the front 9. Back 9, I fire up.

Funny, I don't normally smoke on the front either. Might be because I like to tee off around 10 am and I don't normally smoke before lunch but even if I tee off after lunch I normally don't smoke on the front.

Hello all cigar smokers,

You may have already taken care of this, but I will go a head and respond for you and anyone else in the future. I would say first off be nice about it. Most of us cigar smokers are tired of being treated like we are doing something wrong. I cannot stand people that just stare at you and say nothing, or my favorite is the ones that will fake cough and then look at you. All we ask is that you come up to us and ask nicely to put out our cigars. Most of us will either put it out or just get up and move somwhere else or leave, simply becasue we do not want to put out our cigars. I am sure if you explain your situation to the people you are playing with they will not smoke around you.


I'll jump on the train here, I love the Punch cigars. But if I'm sharing a cart with someone I dont know, I'll ask first, and I wont bring it to the greens.

Agreed. I am the same way. Common courtesy comes before anything else.

I love to have a cigar when I play, but will go without one if anyone objects to smoking.

Without question, anyone with a respiratory problem gets all my consideration -- if you'r asthma or in this case CF, just be honest and say so. Anyone with a half a brain would understand!

Of course - I am not addicted to cigars. There are cigarette smokers who may find it harder to go without. And weird as it sounds, I can't stand the smell of cigarettes - and I used to smoke them a lonnng time ago! Now - can't stand 'em - thats just weird to me....

And I can;t stand the smell of cigarettes, either - and used to smoke them!

I smoked a very good cigar recently and enjoyed it very much. It was an Oliva Serie G Belicoso. It was a very nice smoke and not too expensive.

I picked up some of the "Not-A-Short-Story" from http://www.thecigarfo.com/

If I had some AF-SS bands to put on them I coulda fooled my buddies......they're that good.

I'm somewhat of a cigar nut, and I usually take an assortment. I have a 500ct humidor and a 28 bottle vinotemp wine fridge converted into a humidor.

Favorites lately: Anything by Don Pepin Garcia, especially the Black Label and the Cigars International Legends Series Yellow Label

A good yet cheap cigar for the golf course or yard is the Famous Smoke Nicaraguan 3000.

If you are interested in cigars, check out Club Stogie , a great resource!

I dont smoke on the course, I dont play as well when I do but I enjoy a smoke after the round. Thats always the best. Generally any tatuaje will do.

Yep another cigar smoker here. I seem to gravitate towards anything Padron (especially the 1926) or most Rocky Patel cigars.

As for smoking on the course. I generally do not, because I like to sit down and have a nice single malt scotch and enjoy the cigar. When on the course, I am there to golf.

But boy do I ever, love a good cigar!

    • True, true. I should do that. He really did go off during that run, I remember now. Appreciate the context. 
    • I am pretty sure it is this. Word probably got around. The reports coming out now is that he bombed some interviews, and when pressed about it during the interview just basically had a horrible response. His attitude is crap. There are stories about him throwing his players under the bus at Colorado. I get it, he's not playing behind the best O-Line or have the best weapons (outside of Travis Hunter). That is bad leadership, bad attitude.  Also, it could be his dad as well. Who would want Prime Time chattering.  Go watch the playoff run. Four top 10 teams. He was elite. The Penn State game happened with our starting left guard shifting to left tackle and going up against the 3rd pick in the NFL draft. He had two big mistakes early. The pick, which looked to be a defensive play call to trap that RPO quick out, and then the fumble off his knee. He won the game besides that.

    • Yea I admit too I had more of a 2nd round evaluation on him, where I wrote in my notes "Maybe Geno Smith" after watching a couple games. Too many screens, too many sacks, awkward throwing motion at times, low velocity at times. Too low. At other times though I thought he made some nice throws, hence why I thought he should've probably gone around round two. So to me the free fall is surprising to an extent, but of course, it all makes sense now that he's still sitting there. He probably bombed his interviews too, and I know almost nothing of his personality. I love sports betting, hence why I love following this stuff, but there's only so much I can know from the outside looking in. But yea, my 2nd round guess was smart to an extent, but also bad now that he's still on the board and it's pick 4.17 at the moment. I see. Thanks for the take, I know you watch every game of theirs.  I just watched some of the Penn State game and can see both the upside and why he's still available. But I can get on board as well that Howard has more upside than Sanders too. Tougher competition, showed some growth from K-State to Ohio State.  I guess the question marks with Howard are processing and accuracy. Yea especially for us as fans. We don't get to interview these guys or talk to their college coaches to get a better idea of what they'll be like to work with everyday. We don't know who will end up being more durable and whose body will just naturally break down over the next few years. Some guys are great talents who go to terrible situations too, who are poor system fits in failed regimes. Other guys hit the jackpot with the perfect role on a great team in a weak division. There are so many variables.
