Abstract:

A holder for a smoking article may be inserted into the ground or golf tee holder on a golf cart, or secured over and about the upper opening leading into a garment pocket or golf bag. The holder is used to protect the smoking article from exposure to poisons and injurious chemicals used in fertilizers, and weed and fungus killers, in addition to water, dirt and debris that also cause damage to a golfer's cigars or cigarettes. A golfer can place a cigar or cigarette between the jaws of the holder, and insert the shaft into the ground or golf tee holder, thereby allowing the golfer to easily insert a tee into the ground, remove a club from the golf bag, take a shot, or drive a cart without holding a cigar or cigarette in his/her hand or mouth, and without having to be concerned about the position or location of a lit cigar or cigarette, and preventing any water, grass, dirt, chemicals or debris from adhering to the smoking article.
