Looking for a cigar holder for the golf course

This is absolutely the NEXT thing I am purchasing. This is exactly what I need. Great suggestion! FYI, the plastic version is much cheaper, around 3 bucks. The aluminum ones are in the 12 dollar range... I cannot wait to use this.

I use this, it's called the cigar minder and they work great until you leave them on the cart. The nub can be a problem, but then it's time to light the next cigar.

Glad to hear it...you can also find different versions by simply typing "Little Judy" into Google. But I'm glad I could help. Hopefully the greens in Ohio aren't quite as wet as they are here in Oregon.

These are pretty good. I've had one for years. I only have two complaints:

1. You have to stoop over constantly to pick it up and put it down.
2. The little "posts" on the side of the platform limit the RG of cigars you can put on this. It takes a good size cigar to overload the LJ, but I don't like that limitation.

Last year, I bought a "tee gar" like device on c-bid. It was made by Wilson. It was a decent design but the quality of the plastic and durability was awful.

I agree with you on the stooping over part for sure. At the very least, it forces us to want to take lesser strokes I guess. But I've heard very similar reports on the Wilson piece. You would think a major manufacturer like a Wilson would make a better product. Too bad though.

I know, I know...it's more of a habit now then anything else.

I like that REALLY tall Tee-gar from the video, but I think if I ever used it all my golf buddies would laugh me off the course.

I've been smoking and golfing for over 10 years. Had all the gadgets, lost all the gadgets. Now, if I am smoking while golfing, I just rest the cigar on top of my golf bag, nestled in amongst the clubs. If I'm riding, I use the black rubber windshield bump-stop thingy (when windshield is down) or just the put it on the console where the cup holders are.

This summer I balanced my cigar on the edge of the "basket" behind the seat of the golf cart. Needless to say it rolled off and got caught between the cart and my bag. It made quite a few burn marks on the strap of my golf bag.

How about the Hole-In-One?

My only concern with that one would be . . . will larger RG cigars fit through the hole?

Looks like up to 54 RG from the site.

We've all been there before. Show me a golfer that smokes without burn marks on their bag, and I'll show you someone who either doesn't golf enough or doesn't smoke enough.
