Respect the Course Rules

Few things frustrate cigar enthusiasts more than being told they can’t light up outdoors. Before pulling out your cutter and lighter, check the course's smoking policy. While most public and private golf courses allow cigar smoking, some have restrictions — especially if they’re eco-conscious or located in areas with strict fire codes. It's always best to confirm ahead of time and avoid lighting up in areas where it's not allowed, such as near the clubhouse or on practice greens. While most golf courses are generally cigar-friendly, it’s best to double-check the policy before sparking up a premium Padron 1926 40th Anniversary—just in case someone decides to raise a fuss.

Choose the Right Cigar for the Game

Golf rounds can last four to five hours, making it important to pick a cigar that matches your pace. Here are a few tips:

• - Size Matters: Go for a robusto, toro, or Churchill depending on how long you plan to smoke during your round. Shop all large cigars.
  
  
• - Flavor Profile: Milder to medium-bodied cigars tend to be better suited for extended enjoyment outdoors without overwhelming your palate.
• - Construction Counts: A well-constructed cigar with a good draw and consistent burn will hold up better against wind, movement, and pauses between shots.

Bring Extra Cigars to Share

Picture this: you’re on the course for hours, and someone next to you is enjoying a great-smelling cigar—but you didn’t bring one. Don’t be that person. Pack enough cigars for your playing partners, and maybe a few extras just in case. A bundle of budget-friendly smokes like Cohiba Blue Robusto is perfect for sharing if more folks show up than expected. SHOP ALL BUNDLES and GET UP to 70% OFF!

Use the Right Gear

Having the proper cigar accessories on the course makes a big difference:

• - Windproof Lighter: A torch lighter is essential for outdoor smoking, especially when there's a breeze.
• - Cigar Holder or Clip: Avoid placing your cigar on the ground or golf cart dashboard. A cigar clip attaches to your cart and keeps your smoke safe from damage or contamination.
• - Portable Ashtray: Don’t leave ashes or cigar butts behind. A travel ashtray or a metal container with a lid helps you stay tidy and respectful to the course and fellow golfers.
• - The DIV Pro 6-in-1 Golf/Cigar Tool is a compact, pocket-sized kit combining a golf ball marker, divot tool, cigar holder, club head cleaner, grip saver, and shotgun can opener—perfect for golfers who want multifunctional convenience on the course.

Be Courteous to Others

Not everyone on the course may be a cigar fan, so be mindful of where and when you light up. If you’re golfing with others, especially strangers, ask if they’re comfortable with cigar smoke before lighting up. Avoid blowing smoke in someone’s direction, and keep your ashes and butt disposal clean and controlled.

Pace Yourself

Golf is a game of rhythm, and so is cigar smoking. Don’t rush your cigar or chain-smoke through a round. Light up on the back nine, or during a particularly beautiful stretch of the course. Let the smoke be part of the experience — not a distraction from it.

Smoking a cigar on the golf course can elevate your round into something truly memorable — a blend of sport, leisure, and luxury. As long as you choose the right cigar, follow course rules, and show respect to the game and fellow players, you’ll find that cigar and golf culture go hand in hand.

So next time you hit the fairway, bring a few sticks along, and savor every swing, puff, and moment.
