FJ three quarter length windbreaker/rain jacket and whatever pants I'm wearing
Played in a tropical storm coming ashore in Myrtle Beach.  Ridiculous amount of wind and rain.  A true Caddyshack moment.

Toss up between the Old Course for 4 holes where you couldn't even tee it up because the wind would blow the ball off the tee and a steady heavy rain at Old Waverly in West Point, MS during a singles Ryder Cup style match.

Nike Hypershield

Well, considering I live in Seattle, I golf often in rain. The worst is in the winter when it’s high 30 air temps and the rain makes it much colder. Golfed in a couple downpours like that

Under Armor Rain Suit

played in 35* rain/sleet at Bethpage in March one year. Was blowing 20mph...and was walking. Starting getting bad at the turn, and was only one on the course. So...just okayed my way in. Miserable...but golf none the less.

Just purchased a Galvin Green rain jacket. 
Worst rain I've played in are the random spots of torrential downpour DC gets in the summertime.  Otherwise the rain usually doesn't bother me, especially if I have my Clicgear with its umbrella stand.  I will, however, love to walk out with just some great rain gear!

Played up in Canada, rained all day and actually won the tournament back in the days when rain gear pretty much didn't exist to the likes of what they are today.  I think all I had was an umbrella.

Current rain gear   FJ pullover and mix rain paints all in sad need of replacement.
Worst rain you've ever played in:  Talega Golf Club (San Clemente CA). Rain was puddling on the greens...only made it through 14 holes before some of cart paths were unpassable and golf ball rooster tails on the greens looked like a hydroplaning speed boat...

Heidelberg, Germany, rained so hard that my bag was practically full of water!  At the time, I was living over there and I played for a German club.

We were on the NW side of a tropical storm that was not supposed to have any effect on us. We found out differently on the 4th hole when the light rain turned into something much different. We made it to the turn & our bags, clubs, etc. dried out three days later.

Don from Pittsburgh

I currently use a LL Bean rain jacket and it is a bit bulky.  I live in rainy Pittsburgh and would be glad to test either in the rain, snow, sleet or hail.  Always wanted to try this brand.  I would be a hard core perfect tester.
