Heat is the factor that changes cigar performance on a golf course more than most people account for. A cart parked in direct sun for even twenty minutes can push cigar and wrapper temperature up enough to loosen the roll slightly, which is why a cigar that drew perfectly on the first tee sometimes starts drawing too loose or too hot by the back nine, the cigar itself changed, not your technique.

Keeping cigars in a shaded pocket of the cart or a small travel case rather than loose on the dash or in a cup holder helps more than people expect, direct sun through a cart's windshield acts like a small greenhouse and heats up faster than the ambient temperature alone would suggest.

On pace: nine holes typically runs 90-120 minutes depending on the group and course, which comfortably covers a 60-70 minute cigar with room to spare, while a full 18 stretches closer to 4 hours, long enough that a single cigar from this collection may not last the entire round, worth knowing if you're planning for the full 18 rather than just the front or back nine.
