Thumbs up Recent Puffs

Weather has been amazing up here for the last week or so! Lots of time to enjoy some good puffs, golf, grilling! First round of golf was fun! Had only one good hole#18. Drove the green in 1 and putted for a Birdie! Hey even a blind squirrel gets the nut!

Thanks. How do you like the Papas Fritas? I have not had one yet or at least I don't remember ever having one. What are they similar to?

Haven't smoked any yet, just bought that tin 2 or 3 weeks ago. I'm going to let it settle since B&M's store their sticks at a higher RH. Supposed to be similar, if not the same profile as the Liga No.9 since the Papas Fritas uses scrap Liga No.9 fillers.

I'm going to hate myself for saying this but it smoked very nicely. It wasn't bursting with flavor but it did have great smoke output with some texture to it. Got a lot of creamy leather all throughout the stick with no roughness to it at all. If you come across it, I'd give it a shot, but I wouldn't pay more than $10 for one.

Looks like you cut off a good amount of the cap there C280, do you ever have problems with the wrapper unraveling at the shoulder/cap?

Epic line-up as usual, JR!

BTW, you should be here in SW Missouri this weekend...."Legends of Golf" tourney at Johnny Morris' (owner of Bass Pro Shops) 'Top of the Rock' Golf Course started yesterday. Guys like Nicklaus, Watson, et al are here playing a rather cool team tourney format. Very big event and the course is beautiful.

To be honest I tend to be a odd ball cigar puffer. I tend to cut off more then I should lol. Only cigars I have had trouble with the wrapper unraveling is the #9's and the T52's.

Jon, you have to link me your build thread on the SL! I have to see this beast! Such meticulous detail all throughout the build last time I checked.

When you're out west in LA, we should smoke some stogies and hit some *****!

Good afternoon fellas. I'm looking to treat myself to one of these Opus 22 6 pack samplers. My B&M has one in blue for $175 but it's going for $250 online. I wonder how it's selling cheaper at a B&M than online, but do you guys think it's a good deal?
