2021 Fire in the Hole

On July 17th 90 attendees, 70 golfers and four cigar exhibitors gathered for the third annual summer event, Fire in the Hole, hosted by Fools’ End Club. The event was held for the first time at Missoula Country Club. The staff and facilities were top notch! Thank you also to the volunteers from the Western Montana Shrine Cub. The day of golf, socializing and cigars went very well. The skies were filled with smoke, from forest fires, and supplemented with cigars smoke from Big Sky Cigars, Carolina Blue, and Juanito’s, as well as Out of the Box.

Partial funds from the event were used to fund the Western Montana Shrine Club as well as the Boy Scouts of America. Watch here for the announcement of the 2022 event, coming soon.

MARCH MADNESS 2021

We are ready to hold our annual March Madness event.  This is one of our more popular events.  It will be held on March 12, at 6pm at the club.

Here are the rules for this year.  We will be doing a blind draw for teams.  1st place gets half the cigars (32), second place gets a quarter (16) and third and fourth share a quarter (8 each).

Each draw for a team will cost you one premium cigar.  This year we are defining a premium cigar as one having a shelf price of $12 or more.  And here’s the most important part.  You must buy your cigar locally, from either The Belle, Worden’s, or Out of the Box.  No internet purchases.

Last year everyone was able to draw three teams (which would cost you three cigars).  If you want to participate and can not be there, send your cigars with a friend.  If you are like Truman and have no friends, get your cigars to one of the owners and we will draw for you.
Any questions, please reach out.
