V-cut almost exclusively. I'll v-cut anything! (usually in a X pattern). I have cutters of all shapes and sizes and this is where I've landed over time. Xikar VX or a VX2 - depending on which I grab first.

I take a yearly golf trip with another 20 or so guys and its coming up (I leave wednesday). From Wednesday -> Sunday I generally smoke 25-30 cigars. By the end of the weekend its possible that I can't taste anything anymore It generally works out like this: - Wednesday is a 6-8 hour drive (depending on how far we decide to drive that day) the drive usually includes one or two cigars and maybe a stop for some golf (9-holes - so one cigar here too) - this year we're meeting one of the attendees at his lake house so there'll be a few cigars in the evening as well - Thursday is usually nine holes first thing in the AM - so another cigar. Then we finish the trip to where we're meeting everyone (not usually long enough to get a cigar in). Then we play 18 after arrival (2-3 cigars) and then there's 1-2 cigars after dinner - Friday is 36 holes of golf. Generally 4-6 cigars (depending on cigar size and round speed). Then dinner and cigars afterwards (another 1-2) - Saturday is a repeat of Friday - Sunday is 18 holes first thing in the morning (2-3 cigars) and then we do the full 9-ish hour drive home all one shot. So we'll get through 2-3 cigars just depending Anyone else do something like this on a regular basis? Doesn't have to be a golf trip. Maybe a weekend with buddies where cigars and booze are on hand?

Had a bunch of back and forth with Dan regarding shaft selection. I have a very high ball flight with my DG S300s and was looking for a way to drive that down some. Problem is the S300s are low flight already. After some conversation I may try C-Taper Xs soft stepped when I finally jump in.

That's my intention at some point!

wait ... " a call " ... im not familiar with this terminology
-
My biggest concern is shaft selection. I don't have a great chance here to test shafts and if I did it wouldn't be with the Sub70 stuff. I currently run DG S300s - I'll likely go with those but we'll see. I might move to something graphite too.

Finally jumped on the demo bandwagon. I play Titleist AP2s currently (with a few AP1s at the top end of the set). So I started with the 639 MBs because why not. After a round I like them but dont LIKE them. So the 639 CBs just arrived - waiting on the label to send the MBs back. If the CBs are better than the MBs it'll be a no brainer and likely to be a 639 combo set. We will see though!

Cigar collection (AKA what do you like to smoke)

I'm never a fan of sticks like that that are gimmicky IMO. But I have a local guy here who's been smoking longer than many of us have been alive. His palate is fairly amazing. He's a BT fan too. So he went into it with some skepticism. But he ended up really enjoying them. It gets me interested enough. I'll try them at some point for sure -
Hah not mine. That's the BILs caddy. Mine has a few Dunbarton and a local shop sticker on it I think. Been soooo hot. Smoked a few Cubans on the course Sunday. Forgot pictures as usual

The T wasn't great. I have another so I'll give it another chance. The aquitaine was I believe a "sabretooth". That was a good cigar. For my palate cigars are basically just "good, ok, not good". The T fell into just OK. The Roma was good

Had a few this weekend while golfing. There were others, im just bad at picture taking

I'd love to increase my storage but I'm not looking for more tupperdors/coolers/etc. I'm probably going to move to a cabinet at some point. nothing huge but something that'll hold all my sticks with a little extra room. it's just a matter of deciding on what then spending the money on it (this hobby is almost worse than golf!)
