If you frequent courses in the Northeast or Southeast, you've no doubt experienced rainy days. Lots of rainy days. And if you're like me, you don't let that get you down!
The good news for us weather never-minding golf fanatics is that there any products available to keep our heads dry and our swing unencumbered. The bad news is it can be quite expensive to shop for, if one is unwary. Worry not, though! Golf Guru Guy is on the job, and I've got quite the selection for you in our rain gear section.
Rain Gear Essentials include your bag, hat, gloves and umbrella. That's all most players would probably think they need when braving the rains. A good jacket and hat are essential (And can be quite pricey, though we've found some great jackets for less than $150), but let the veterans of the golf rounds in monsoon season suggest a few more pieces of equipment to gird yourself with.
Rain-proof Bags: A bag that keeps your clubs dry, but what is even better is a bag that keeps everything dry, from your wallet to your blackberry, to the mini-bar and TV Al Czervik from Caddy Shack sported. Invest in a bag with water-proof pockets. After all, no one likes rain in their mint julep mix
Fancy Globes for Fancy Men! Those leather gloves of yours may be fine dandy when its dry, Mr. Fancy Pant, but in the rain they become a liability. Once soaked, your grip will be ruined. To prevent you from sending your sand wedge out of the trap with the ball (Just wanted to make sure the ball didnt get any ideas! Right), a pair of rain gloves will go a long way. They grip better the more waterlogged they are, so youll be praying for a monsoon!
Shoes: Be sure to use waterproof golf shoes and if they get wet, most of them are guaranteed, so hold onto to that receipt and warranty paperwork because if they are still within the warranty period " Free Pair!!!! It's also a good idea to bring another pair of shoes to rotate amongst and allow proper drying between rounds. And lastly, extra socks in the golf bag never hurt.
Umbrella: The quality construction of the Golf Club Umbrella ensures it will be around for many a rainy round. A good golf umbrella is a no brainer for the hardened golfer who braves the rain and the wind. Be sure to buy a proper golf umbrella as they have "wind flaps" that stop the umbrella from collapsing or exploding outwards.
Well, you can go nuts, but these are the essentials you need to keep that great round going, no matter what Mother Nature has in store for your round Decent golf rain gear is essential if like me, youre mad for golf and play all year round. - 17944
