TESTERS ANNOUNCED: Galway Bay Rain Gear

The full announcement is found later in this thread.

(4) TESTERS WANTED!!

Galway Bay Rain Gear

 

Looked kinda cold and wet out there at Pebble over the weekend, didn't it?

I'd guess staying warm and dry as a spectator would be pretty important, wouldn't you? And never mind the players!

I'd guess a lot of folks tripled up on pants at Pebble - some long johns, regular pants and them some pull-on rain pants. That's three pair of pants (if you count the long johns). Would just one pair of warm, waterproof pants be a better way to go?

That's what Galway Bay thinks, and they say their pants are just the ticket. 

TESTERS WANTED!

Galway Bay came out of nowhere to tie for top honors in MyGolfSpy's Best Rain Gear testing last year. Our testers loved the fact the rain pants were actual pants, with belt loops, pockets, a zipper -  you know, pants - that were also waterproof. the rain jacket was a top performer as well, with plenty of ease of movement, lightweight and snazzy looking. 

That's what our testers thought, but we want to know what YOU think. That's why we're looking for FOUR of you to test, review and keep a set of Galway Bay rain gear - fitted, waterproof slacks and a rain jacket (valued at a over $470).

This review opportunity is open to any avid golfer in the US or Canada who's not averse to playing in a little rain.

HOW TO APPLY:

As you know, we take our Forum Member testing VERY seriously here at MyGolfSpy, so please read this instructions VERY carefully and apply ONLY in this thread (applying in the Comments section of the blog, while a nice gesture, doesn't count).

To apply, please tell us the following: 

1. First name/home state or province
2. Current rain gear 
3. Worst rain you've ever played in

 

We'll be announcing our testers in this thread next week, so make sure to check back to see if you've been selected. 

Good luck!

Awesome looking kit... Unfortunately here it's not so much rain but snow and stupid cold weather for the next couple months. Good luck to all those that apply! I'll be eagerly watching for the reviews!

[perseveringgolfer]

Good luck fellow spies. These new waterproofs do look very good indeed. Look forward to hearing the reviews.

no rain gear currently/ just an umbrella

Heavy rain storms passed through last May during a round. Heavy wind and rains. Didn't make it back to the clubhouse but passed quickly and the course was clear afterwords.

Funny how these items pop up. Almost bought a rainjacket yesterday but held off; maybe karma.

Just a rain jacket I bought recently but going to Bandon Dunes in April and I have to believe that would be a perfect testing location.
