Padilla Cazadores. One of the pitfalls of a budget cuban sandwich cigar. Wonky burns, and a hot and spongy smoke. The blend isnt bad, but I won't buy these again

24 Degrees in Nashville, after 7” of snow and the duck blind heater ain’t cutting it on the porch. So it’s time for a Camacho in the GMC! Man’s got to improvise!
 
Going to a friends wedding this afternoon, gotta bring a few wingmen along.

Anybody else notice that Uncle Mort kinda has a Cigar smoking Santa Claus vibe going on?...LOL.

I have never had tobacco smoke at home, although my father was a heavy smoker from a young age. He quit smoking in an anecdotal way: during the war, the regiment commander (air defense fighter regiment) decided to quit smoking, and forbade all staff officers to smoke so that he would not be tempted. But he couldn't resist smoking again two weeks later. The offended officers, including the father (the guidance officer), organized a conspiracy, and agreed - no one should smoke! The commander smoked and suffered because of his weakness.

In general, I did not get involved in this business, but already at the age I sometimes allowed myself a good cigar in a company in which I occasionally do tourism. And it so happened that in my travel bag sometimes there is a handful of cigars for the whole company.
At the beginning of November, our club went to the moose. It takes a weekend, plus two days on the road. Luck is not guaranteed, sometimes you have to spend both Saturday and Sunday (daylight is only 7 hours) and not close the license. But this time, half an hour after the placement on the shooting positions - a shot, then a second - and the cry "ready!". A great big bull, 4 years old, with horns. And we suddenly had 2 free days. And most importantly: it was the last day of the year with good weather, with the sun, and a few degrees warmer than usual. And that's how we managed to spontaneously spend the day not indoors, but outdoors - thank God, with a supply of red wine, a Jagermeister - and "Romeo and Juliet". There is no smoking room in the hotel, and you can't smoke indoors at all; there is also no special place to relax outside (it's cold there during the hunting season) - but there is a place for braais. And that's enough.

Excellent background story @Vashper. And now days, a cigar smoker will pretty much make do with any place where he can imbibe and enjoy!

Hunting, photographic safaris and unforgettable African experiences
Francois R wrote on Lance Hopper's profile.
Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
