That time of year is on the way, or already here in Arizona last week, that you have to have rain gear in your golf bag just in case the skys open up when you least expect it.
I know that to buy good rain apparel to stuff in your golf bag can be expensive, upwards of 100 dollars, but if you do not have compact rain apparel how do you carry it.

gear is a good way to tolerate the damp or wet conditions you may encounter. These consist of a long sleeved jacket and drawstring pants that have a zipper at the bottom of the pant leg so that you can put them on without taking off your shoes. This type of apparel can be put on in less than a minute, which is good if you are caught in a sudden downpour.
The more expensive golf rain suits are not only waterproof on the outside but on the inside as well. Also important if you live where it can be hot and rainy is to have rain apparel that breathes. this will prevent condensation from building up and making you hot and uncomfortable.
When you put on rain gear over your other clothes you now have another layer to restrict your swing movements. That is why you want a lightweight thin suit. If you have tried a poncho for golf then you know what i am taking about.
Get your golf apparel, put it in your bag and then you to can golf on threatening days without worry.
A Rainy Day, Still Golf?
In the fall in northern Wisconsin it can be very rainy or just on and off all day. If you do not want to be stuck in the house all day doing the honey do list then you better have some golf apparel. With the weather so unpredictable, a sunny morning turning into a cloudy, drizzly afternoon you have to be prepared. If a short shower pops up an umbrella will work to keep you from getting wet and then cold for the rest of the round. Or worse yet making you call it quits.
The best way to stay dry and comfortable on a foggy damp day on a persistent on and off rain is to have good rain gear. There are plenty of choices of good rain gear that is designed to wear and still let you swing your club without restrictions. some of them breathe and some of them pack up very nice so you can always have them in your bag ready to go.
