On the course/at home

Recommended Posts

I just ordered some cigars from CI. I grabbed 50 Oro Cubanos for 59.99. I like these for the course. Just over $1 a stick they taste like they should be a 3-4 a stick cigar. Nice for the course this is my third round of 50 over the last two years. My friends like them and so do I.

 

For home I nailed 10 La Gloria's series N for 39.99 because... Come on 3.99 a stick for those? On the back porch? On a Friday night? You can't beat that.

It's our offseason so auditioning candidates - looking for that right mix of low spin long, more spin around the greens - TBD

good stuff!!

I've been smoking through my sampler packs (I like to mix it up and have a hard time committing to one stick unless it's something I'm in love with)

Which reminds me, I should start prepping my wife for my next cigar order (she does better with a heads up vs. when I spring it on here that I just ordered 100 cigars.)

Ditto, I usually start two weeks in advance. We had our weekly budget meeting yesterday and sure enough cigars were a funded line item. I also like that Bayou is now on the sheet that prints out rather than hand written on. :)

A couple weeks ago I dropped buy a cigar shop in Chesapeake, Va on my way to the Outter Banks (OBX).  I picked up a Camacho CLE and nearly burned that thing to the cap.  Great Stick......

They make them, cigar holders. I just set mine on the ground but more and moreI keep it in my mouth US Grant style when putting. Now that I'm at a place where if I forget it will be returned I'm thinking I'll go with the cart clip.

 

Great question!

My on course and home cigars are 1 in the same.  The first morning cigar of the day, I like the Acid Toast Maduro.  To follow that up and what I'll occasionally smoke at home is the Acid Kuba Kuba.  Those are by far my 2 favorites.  I'll try others, but I always revert back to these as they're such a smooth smoke.

Have a ton of back-ups in all categories, but there are always 14 clubs in the bag that differ depending on the course and set-up. Bomb and gouge. Yes, I'm a club gigolo.

if you have a scotty divot tool,  flip it, fork side up, and use it as a holder  OR just balance it on the Tee box marker......

I generally smoke cigarettes that I blend and stuff myself, but also enjoy the Acid line of cigars that Rookie mentioned.

My Father was always seen (in his younger days) walking around the movie theater that he managed with a cigar in his mouth.   To my knowledge, he never lit one, just sorta chewed/sucked on it all day.

My buddy's dad does the same thing. He never lights a cigar, just chews on it all day.

Just ordered 20 really good cigars from CI. 

 

5 macanudo hyde parks

5 Man of War Virtues

5 Hoyo Excaliburs

5 5 Vegas Golds

 

 

I still have 30 or so of the Oro Cubano's and 2 Series N's in my humidor so these will give me some additional options for the evening.  My next order will be mid-December so that I have a nice stash to take to the Time Share on the beach after Christmas.  My new club is exactly half way between my house and that condo - perfect!

So ie been labor ing the past two weeks over the budget. Revenue is off 120k due to a lower than anticipated school census. That's 21/12 employees. 1/2 or 30k was not hired and we went line item by line item and have found the othe 90k.

 

I like saving jobs and so am enjoying a la Gloria cubano series N and a glass of scotch.

Don't mean to res an old post, but I thought it would be better than creating a whole new one.

 

What cigars do you all recommend for on the course? I tend to like a mild/medium smoke ( macanudo, Oliva, even a Punch). I would like to branch out and see what other sticks are out there to enhance golf game.

I am a big Fan of Arturo Fuente.. Just about any of them. Really like the Hemingway series.. Between $6-10 depending on which one and where you buy them.. Also try a arturo "Curly head" they are cheaper at $3-5, also a really nice smoke..

I love the Hemmingway Series particularly the short story for at home.  On the course I really enjoy the La Perla Habana Morado.  Very inexpensive when you order a box and 93 rated.  Great value.  I will be having one today.

Have not smoked a short story in years, I think I have a box of maduro's in one of my humi's, got it years ago.  I use to be a collector of the Between the Lines series as well.

The Garcia family cigars (My Father, Flor de las Antillas, Don Peppin, etc.) are fairly inexpensive fantastic cigars.  Can't go wrong with Fuente.  I always have a stash of Prensados in the humidor.  But I burn Drew Estates more than anything.  Im a big fan of the Norteno, Nica Rustica, and on special occasions the Liga 9 and T52.  On the course I opt for the Undercrown gordo.  Burns slow and stays lit, which is impotant when you hit the ball as often as I do  :unsure:
