How Many (curiosity question)

[Springsman]

How many do you smoke in a day?
and/or
Do you smoke everyday?

[Emjaysmash]

winter time: once or twice a month (not including herfs)
Summer time: usually once a day

[massphatness]

I don't smoke.

Smoking is bad for you.

[htown]

I smoke one to two a week.

[Springsman]

I don't know if I'll ever get to be an every day kind of guy...so far i've crept up from 1 a month to 3-4 a week...I'm a newb, and was just looking at the poll thread of how many some people have...I know that's different than how many you smoke, but sheesh...if ya got a 100K sticks...I can't see you NOT smoking 3-4 or more a day... so just wonderin'.

[Ashcan Bill]

Most of the year when the weather's nice, one a day (occasionally a couple).

When the weather's cold or rainy, I generally take a pass. It's been unseasonably cold here the last two weeks, so I've only smoked a couple, total.

I guess that makes me a fair weather smoker? :D

[CigarNut]

This depends upon a lot of things... during normal periods right now I smoke 5-15 per week (down from 2-5 per day). I smoke less during the winter.

On vacation I smoke 5+ per day.

[Wanger]

Well...haven't had one in the last 3 weeks (busy, and recommendation from the oral surgeon after I had my wisdom teeth out).

In the summer, it's about 4-5 a week. In the winter, 1-3/week. On vacation...depends on where (Averaged about 6/day while in Greece with SmokeyNL).

[hscmit]

all warm months 1 a day
cold months 1-2 a week

[Conch Republican]

Depends on what I am doing! Nice weather - at work - maybe 2/day
Poor (snow) weather maybe 1/day
Fishing/golfing/working outside...I have had 8-10 in a day (Great day fishing!!) :r

[hammondc]

1-2 a week on average.

[Salvelinus]

I smoke 1 or 2 a week during the summer, and very rarely during the winter.

[bobarian]

2-3 a day. Herf days, 7-8

[Ogre]

I average one a day. Somedays I don't get one, on others I may do 2 or 3

[bishjd123]

5-10 a week. I've got a garage and a space heater that will get me through the winter.

[lbowles2]

Typically one a day but the winter really hurts that average so I have to smoke more during the spring and fall to make up for it :D

[ylo2na]

2 to 5 per day... but, mostly 2 a day recently!

[CRIMPS]

3 or 4 a week. Im having to work at it with the cool weather, though.

[Bear]

2-3 a day. Herf days, 7-8

Just wondering how you can really truly enjoy a cigar if you are smoking 5-10 in a single day. I know that I have taken 2 hours to enjoy a cigar that I found to be very tasty.

On a herf day the key is pacing and knowing the flavor/strength profile of your sticks. Typical herf runs from noonish until 9-10 at night, sometimes much later. I will always start with milder Cuban sticks like a ERDM or Por Larranaga, move to more medium and finally to a full flavored smoke. Then I usually progress to NC"s sticking with mostly med/full and full bodied smokes. End the night with something more mild of a CC nature like a RyJ or JLP. Many of these will be smaller smokes like a PC or corona. Maybe one or two churchill/pirimide size.

The key is pacing and hydration. I try to keep my sugar levels up to help counteract the nicotine.

Pacing is even more important when at one of the big herfs(SoCal, Shack) that can last 3-4 days. :banger

[Volusianator]

Days that I work at the lounge, 3-5 a day, days that I don't, sometimes 0, sometimes 2.

[Smokin Gator]

2-3 a day. Herf days, 7-8

+2 pretty much exactly

I usually have one in the morning, one right after lunch and one after dinner. Sometimes I will miss the morning smoke but not very often.

[jkim05]

I have one cigar. Once I smoke that one, I'll buy another...

In all seriousness, I am probably one of the lightest smokers on the board at maybe 2-3 a month, but I try to get to herfs at least a couple times a year and I'll smoke a bunch then. I'll get up to a couple times a week some months, but then it'll dwindle down to maybe 0 in a month so my average is pretty low.

[BigFrank]

On average:
maybe 1 - 2 cigars a month.
4+ a week for the pipe per week.

[SNKBYT]

Disabled Veteran/semi-retired = 3to7 a day

[coach33]

Guys who live up north I strongly recommend that you purchase a small propane heater about 3ft tall from walmart, lowes, home depot. great for the garage.

But to answer the question summer 1-2 a day; winter 0-1 a day.

[icehog3]

I would say I average 8-10 a week. Obviously many more on a herf week.

[longknocker]

1-4/Week.

[SNKBYT]

I would say I average 8-10 a week. Obviously many more on a herf week.

goes w/o saying...........3 day herf = 2.5+ boxes of cigars :ss

....and a boatload of alcohol to wash it down. ;)

[Bill86]

I smoke one a day, sometimes 2. Never been to a herf but with that kind of time probably 4-5. Temperature doesn't matter, wind and rain meh I won't waste my sticks.

[druturn]

It changes semester to semester with me. I used to have a tradition with a friend to smoke once a week in our local shop, but since the past few semesters have been absolutely nuts, we no longer do that. So, now I typically smoke about 2-3 times a month. When I am on breaks I smoke much more, typically 1-3 a week.
