Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An accessory for securing a cigar or cigarette for a golfer during a golf game preventing the placement of the cigar on the ground or resting unsecured in a golf cart, said accessory comprising:
 a circular support ring defining an inner ring surface providing a hollow center and a lower section, an outer ring surface defining an upper spring shaft aperture traversing said support ring from said inner ring surface to said outer ring surface, said outer ring surface of said support ring further depending a lower spike;   an upper compression member defining an upper knob at a top of a spring shaft, with a bottom of said spring shaft connecting a compression bar; and   a compression spring placed upon said spring shaft between said compression bar and said inner ring surface, urging said compression bar away from said upper spring shaft aperture in said inner ring surface, wherein said accessory retains said cigar securely within said hollow center between said compression bar and said lower section of said inner ring surface, said upper compression member providing said compression spring in an extended position, when no said cigar is present or when said cigar is retained and retracted position, which is the position when a cigar is being inserted within said accessory.   
     
     
         2 . The accessory, as disclosed in  claim 1 , said accessory further comprising:
 said upper spring shaft aperture defining an inner spring recess, within which an upper portion of said compression spring is inserted and retained, with a lower portion of said compression spring extending beyond said inner ring surface, urged against an upper surface of said compression bar, said compression bar providing a lower surface contoured to and directed towards said cigar.   
     
     
         3 . The accessory, as disclosed in  claim 1 , said accessory further comprising:
 said hollow center is provided to accept a cigar having a ring size between 32 and 50, said compression spring contracting and expanding to retain said cigar of variable ring sizes in a secure manner.   
     
     
         4 . The accessory, as disclosed in  claim 1 , said accessory further comprising:
 said lower spike is alternatively inserted into the ground with said cigar oriented horizontal to the ground or placed in a tee holder provided within a golf cart or in another golf tee receiving receptacle formed within another golf accessory, whereby said cigar is elevated above the ground preventing said cigar from being placed on the ground, dropped or in the way of the golfers movement as the golfer takes his stroke during a golf game or while the golfer operates his golf cart when placed in said tee holder of said golf cart.   
     
     
         5 . The accessory, as disclosed in  claim 1 , further comprising any other element contained within the specification.
