Golfing Cigar Recommendation

[motownflip]

What are your thoughts?  I'd prefer corona or corona extra.  Does anyone golf and smoke a cigar here?

I am usually more focused on my game and enjoying the company I'm golfing with.

When I've taken cigars to share with the group it has been C&C usually of a PC size, (Boli or perhaps a Partagas PCE).

Funny just noticed we joined FOH the same week, keep it in the fairway.

Whatever your preference is really.  Cant go wrong with either that you mentioned but it depends on how long you want to be smoking it for.  Are you walking or riding in a cart? How hot is it going to be outside and what flavors would you like from it? 

I'll smoke what you mentioned, pyramide, corona gorda, robusto extra, double corona, whatever.  For me, I personally love smoking something mild to medium in body but god flavor. If I do smoke on the course, it'll usually be one on the front and one on the back.  Connie A, Dip 2, Monte 1 are all favorites for the course for me. 

All depends on your price point and how much attention you want to pay to the cigar also.

Riding always.  It's hot right now.  So hot.  Mild to medium is good.

I can't imagine trying to keep that cigar going in the heat and humidity I'm in.

HDM Epi Especial or Epi 1, HU Connie 1 or A, HU Mag 46 & 50, Monte 1, 2, 3. R&J Short or Wide Churchill.  Some that could be good in my opinion but everyone is different here.

Depends. Is it just for you or to share with your playing partners?

If it is just for you, smoke whatever you like. If it is for your playing partners, give them the strongest cigars you have. That way they will be too buzzed from the nicotine hit to concentrate on their game!

Funny, the RAG is my golfing cigar.  It lasts for 12 or 13 holes.

[leafdream54]

I like the Hoyo DC.  It's fairly mild and flavorful and like @SigmundChurchill mentions, it lasts for the majority of a round.  If I don't smoke the Hoyo DC, I usually go with a NC as I find they tend stay lit a lot better.

[motownflip]

Great feedback.  Thank you.  Great idea also for the buzz.  I always play with others so I'll keep that in my back pocket

Isn't this what the Monte Open series was created for!?

I agree with a lot of what’s said. Hard to focus on the cigar. Also, wind, etc seems to take away from it.

[NicPac]

When I smoke cigars and play golf it’s always when I’m riding or every once in awhile at a place that I’m taking a caddy. I tend to smoke my normal everyday cigars (RASS, BRC, Shorts, BPC) because I’m not able to focus on the stick as much as I’d like to. If I’m playing well or somewhere that I want to play well I definitely don’t smoke. I mostly smoke cigars at my home club when I’m just out playing with my buddies. 

[Elgallo55]

Usually smoke about 3 cigars while golfing, most of the time is usually a churchill or bigger, than the rest are either robusto, corona or petit robusto.

[BigGuns]

My go tos have always been Lusi or Hoyo DC (sadly, the latter has been incredibly scarce lately). I’ve always started the round with one of these and had backup (usually a robusto of some sort) for the final holes, if I want to spark another.

I got golf lessons for my birthday and hit my first ever golf ball at the end of June. I reckon a 50 cab of Lusitanias should get me through a round!

[MoneyPit]

Before the crumbsnatchers came along an HU Conn #1 on the back nine always helped me finish up with a great score!

[Chas.Alpha]

I bring one petit corona for the front, and a robusto for the back. That’s just me... ?

[NSXCIGAR]

Monte Eagle. Best of the Opens, big, simple but present Cuban flavors and if you drop it or crush it who cares.

Quintero Tubulares are another good one. 

[Edward7]

I just walked 18 with friends in the heat while drinking beer, white claws and cognac with a Rio seco. Worked out nicely. 
 

I usually like the Churchill. It’s light, long, And not too special that I want to focus on it.

[Smatthews607]

Love to play golf and obviously love CCs. But I do not smoke during the round because I hate to have to have to relight the cigar when I get to focused on the round and neglect the stick. I prefer to wait until after the round and dinner. Follow up with a Connie 1 or Monte something.

[nubase]

I nearly always walk the course and between the Arizona heat, trying to stay hydrated, and trying to play a halfway decent round I don't see how I could enjoy a cigar with my game. I see that others enjoy it though so kudos to you all!

[motownflip]

Never had a Monte Open.  Researching now!  I The Connie A was a great recommendation.   Thank you all for the great responses!

[boopdeep]

I’ve always enjoyed Juan Lopez No. 2 while golfing.

Do you give your cigar to caddy when you are hitting the ball?
