It might not hurt to try it. I don' t think deer would associate cigar smoke with people, and they might not consider the smell dangerous. I know a guy that smokes a lot. I think he might even smoke in the woods, and he hunts from the ground a lot. He' s a very successful hunter. I' ve heard about people hanging their clothes in woodsmoke to cover up any human odors.
I don' t know for sure, but cigar smoke may not be such a terrible thing.
