Abstract: The present invention is directed to devices for securely holding elongated objects, such as cigars, above the ground. Generally, a device in accordance with the present invention includes an elongated shaft with ground-piercing means, and a cradle which resembles a golf club head coupled to the upper end of the elongated shaft. The cradle's two interior surfaces define a cavity capable of securely retaining objects such as cigars, cigarettes, sunglasses, and other items needing to be stowed by a golfer on a golf course.
