I like them every once in a while, when I have 2 hours or more to kill.

Once in a while a 60 ring is a nice change of pace when you have a 2-3 hours to do nothing else but smoke the cigar, but I usually prefer the 44-52 gauges. Even if you have the 2-3 hours, the smaller ones are easier to manage if your multitasking while enjoying your smoke.

Don't enjoy the 60RG sticks at all...just doesn't feel right. :2

I thought I liked this size a few months ago, but now find them a bit too big, and takes too long to smoke. I have settled on robustos as the ideal size for me.

I do tend to gravitate toward 60 rg cigars more than any other size, though length is not that important. Don't know why, I just like 'em.

I smoke A LOT of the El Baton Double Toros. A LOT of them. Actually, I really like the whole El Baton line, and the robustos are just as good; oddly (to me), the robustos seem to have more of a nicotine kick to them, so being a lightweight I tend to stick to the double toros.

I prefer not to smoke anything smaller than 80 RG.

i imagine that the majority of sales are cigar novices looking for the best bang for their buck

Once in awhile I will go for a larger RG cigar, but it is a rare thing with me these days.

I take into consideration the size of a cigar when weighing the option of whether it's worth it or not.

IMPO ( And I'd be open to constructive criticism as to whether or not this is bad cigar smoker thinking ) I do not think a manufacturer should charge as much for a 4 X 40 petite corona as they do for a 7 X 48 churchill, a 6 1/2 X 54 torpedo or a 6 x 52 toro. Yet I see it all the time.

There aren't too many 60rg cigars I have found to like. The one I do like alot is the UZI, but the Baitfish is alot better IMO. I think the larger RG on most blends tends to dull out the flavors to me. I'll be glad when a PC or Lancero fad comes.

Too big in my opinion. Hard to get going, don't create a lot of smoke, and most of them seem to have burn issues.

I feel like I have to pull hard on the draw to get the same amount of smoke on a corona or robusto. Too much work to be truly enjoyable from my personal experiences.

I'll smoke a 60rg on a nice long summer night on the back deck. I enjoy the Tat Gran Cojonu, but that's about the only one I'll go out of my way to find.
