Wet Weather jackets....recommendations

[Slothman]

Right, so after my stellar couple of weeks I have $250 built up at the local pro shop and over $350 in drummond golf vouchers.

With the Wet Weather season fast approaching and Albany looking like it might get real wet for the first time in several years, figured I can get something decent.

I don't use anything at the moment as everything I have tried is very tight around the shoulders, and that just annoys the bejeazus out of me.

Anyone have anything they can recommend for a "rather large ugly bastad" with good shoulder movement. Not too worried about the pants at this point as local pro shop doing Mizunos for $99...reckon I might jump on that...or just take a tea spoon of cement and wear shorts.

Sunice gore-tex
Check eBay and Ozsale
I've got 3, in fact got one on now for work it's been raining all morning I'm dry as toast.
If I could I'd track down some cheap pants as well....

I'll second that. Don't bother with golfy brand names, just get something with gore-tex or a similar waterproof/breathable membrane type fabric (eVent, NeoShell, H2No are a couple that are talked about).

Sloth...don't go past Stay-Dri.

Lightweight, packs up really small and fully breathable. Full waterproof and you don't get encumbered by any multi layered materials.

Just wear some normal warm clothes underneath.

I bought a sporte leisure extreme. They are @250 rrp. Very good for the less svelte amongst us.

Buy an umbrella, if you need any more than that, retire to the clubhouse for beers.

[Icestorm959]

Mountain Design Goretex.

If you play golf anywhere near the coast Umbrellas are useless.

Bugger that, drinking beer would be more fun.
