Early May up in Treetops in a mid 40’s degree temps in a downpour. In hindsight a little too early of a golf season in upper Michigan, but it was a buddies trip and toughed it out.

Well, I'm sure the sea was angry that day, but I was a hundred miles west of it. You may have seen standing water on greens; that day we had running water on the greens. On the plus side, you didn't need to imagine how water drains off the green to read it, you could just see it. Looking back, I'm not really sure why they let me out.

BAM BAM 0 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Dan from British Columbia. Currently wear long thermal underwear under my golf pants. For my body, I usually wear a New Balance or Columbia rain jacket. On Vancouver Island, where I'm from, we can usually golf all year round considering we are in a temperate rainforest. Played in a storm with 60km winds in 25-30mm of rain. Link to post Share on other sites

IndianaBoyle 0 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Jason/Indiana Nike Storm pants and Sun Mountain 1/4 zip We were playing a local 9 hole Muni course. Started raining hard after 4 holes. I was -2, best start of my life. I forced my group to keep playing. I rooster tailed it through a puddle to save par on the Par 5 fifth just before the Pro made us quit. It’s been 3 years and I’ve never started that hot since. “To find a man’s true character, play golf with him.†– P.G. Wodehouse Link to post Share on other sites
