Luko:Well for deer hunting, yeah, I'd agree to wait for a celebratory smoke. But I'm going on a pheasant hunt this weekend, and me and my buddies always stop by the shop in Gettysburg where we hunt and stock up. We smoke in the field...no problem other than trying to manipulate a shotgun and a cigar at the same time.

The Sniper:I think I would be a little upset if someone fired up a stogie in the woods. You dont beat a deer's eyes, ya gotta beat its nose... and the scent of a cigar tells a deer "Hmmmm, that smell shouldnt be here - I probably shouldnt be here either!"
Alex Svenson:Ahhhhh the only thing I like talking about even more than cigars..... Hunting. Love this topic and I hunt literally as much as I can. I sat in the stand a few days this week for archery in PA and headed out for Goose in Wisconsin this weekend, then to Texas for deer the weekend after that. I simply can't get enough of it. Nothing beats shooting a big trophy and field dressing the SOB with a celebratory cigar in my mouth. I find hunting and cigars are a lot alike as they bring guys together. Every so often I get over to Africa for a hunt and each time I have gone with friends and some cigar makers as well. While the hunting was always great, my most memorable moments were the days we sat around smoking before the hunt talking about how educated we are while puffing away. Also, the experience of coming back to the skinning shed at the end of each day to compare trophies with your buddies while smoking cigars and passing a bottle of whisky is an experience I will not soon forget and one I hope to get again soon.

Sorry about the back to back posts .... read original post and replied to that one first but then scrolled up and read this ..... My buddy's father is like a damn chimney in the woods with his nasty cigarettes and he bags at least 2 deer a year for the last ..... well I've known him for 7 years so at least 2 and 3 on a few occasions each year for the last 7 years................ I dont get it!
ar28662:a good smoke always goes good in the duck blind with a cup of hot coffee
PuroFreak:This thread is killing me... I haven't been hunting for so many years it's sad... I used to do a LOT of dove and quail hunting out in west TX. I hope to be able to go hunting again in the next couple years. I even have a great new bird gun I got 5 or 6 years ago that I haven't shot yet. Got a Browning Citori 12 ga. over and under that my grandfather bought brand new in 1976 and it has never been fired. He held onto if for years without shooting it and was planning on giving it to me for my 24th birthday. Well my birthday is in March and he passed away in the November before my 24th b-day. My grandmother gave me the gun and told me all about him saving it for me and how much cared for the gun for all those years and couldn't wait to go hunting with me after he gave it to me... Looking very forward to the day I get to make that first hunt! My grandfather also smoked cigars and I'll damn sure light one up for him when I go on my first hunt.
