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?

Don, Washington Currently wearing Nike storm rain pants and Ogio pull over rain jacket XXL so I can layer up and still move. Worst rain here is the norm sideways in 20+ mph wind. Most of the cups on the green were full of water. I live in the Pacific Northwest and my home course has just a handful of trees and the wind always blows so no umbrella use here. I played in a tournament superbowl Sunday, it started snowing with a 20mph northeast wind just as we teed off.. Link to post Share on other sites

Ascott320 4 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) Andy, Missouri Golf course superintendent in Kansas City. Plenty of wet weather and being out in the rain is NOT a choice. Plus, I worked at a course in Ireland called Galway Bay Golf Resort. Pick me! played in the remnants of a hurricane. 4” in 24 hours but was so hot and dry the weeks leading up that I never had the chance to play due to work. One of the most enjoyable rounds!

Cary Mathes lives in Marshalltown, Iowa (central part of the State for those wondering what part of the refrigerator I live in). I currently have a FootJoy pants/jacket combination. Where was Galway Bay when I needed them last year on our annual early Spring guy's golf trip to Osage Beach, Missouri? That was the worst weather I've probably played in, but it wasn't rain - it was snow blowing sideways with temperatures in the 30's. We Iowegians need more than "rain" wear. We need "rain/snow" wear. If I can figure it out, I will attempt to attach a short video documenting the debacle. Thanks!! IMG_4099.MOV Link to post Share on other sites

DaveP043 4,294 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 This is Dave, from Virginia. I currently have a Footjoy Hydrolite Rain Jacket, and ZR rain pants. The worst rain I ever played in was on my first trip to Ireland in September 2006. Two hurricanes had come up the east coast of the US, and continued across the Atlantic following the Gulf Stream to hammer the west coast of Ireland. We played 8 days of golf, heavy wind and at least SOME rain every day. Several days we had consistent steady rain, sideways, all day long. We did see a few patches of blue sky, but they were few and far between.

atkinsondavid 0 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 David Atkinson from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Mostly using Footjoy these days, but I've tried all the traditional makes. We play here (walking) 12 months of the year as most courses remain open. Usually 85 to 100 rounds per year. Frequent rain and 40F temps. Worst rain was in St. Andrews on the Old Course - horizontal (high winds). 3 layers that day! thanks for the opportunity. Link to post Share on other sites
