russtopherb Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 I have Walter Hagen rain gear from DSG, it's not terribly expensive and gets the job done. No complaints from me. tony@CIC and Emag315 2 Quote In my Big Max hybrid bag: ST-X 10.5* Kai'li Blue R Flex ST-Z 15* Kai'li Blue R Flex ST-Z 4h Linq Blue R Flex Halo XL 5i-DW CBX 54* & 58* ER5 Tour S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC Golf Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 This is one area where I believe you get what you pay for. Cheap rain gear sounds like a good deal, but you are either sweating heavily in it or getting wet in a down pour. I always buy rain gear made out of Gore-Tex. I try to buy a rain jacket and pants at year end when it’s on sale. Best deal I found was in Vegas. Few people ever buy rain gear there. Good rain gear lasts at least 4-5 years if it’s well made. With a good cleats and an umbrella, you finish and a rainy round pretty dry. tony@CIC and Emag315 2 Quote TSR 3 9.0 Autoflex 405x - Official Tester 2024 TSi 3 15.0 GD Tour AD - DI 6S Stiff Utility 2 Iron 18.0 - Nippon NS Pro 650GH Stiff / TS3 21 Hybrid Tensei AV Blue 65 HY Stiff 4 - 9 101T Irons - KBS Tour Lite Stiff - Official Tester 2023 Vokey SM9 46 F - 10 BV105 Stiff Vokey SM9 52 F - 12 Nippon NS Pro 950 Stiff Vokey Forged (Japan) 56 M - 10 DG S200 MG3 60 - 12 - Nippon NS Modus3 Tour 105 Stiff Champions Choice Newport 2+ Button Back - 35” / Pistolini Plus Z-Star Diamond Players 4 bag Official Tester - 2021 & Current Club Sensor User Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GolfSpy_APH Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Galway Bay is another great company go look into! They did a member test a few years ago which was very well received. I checked them out this year and they have some good package deals and more.

With the amount of e-commerce I do as a club ho, I have the for the suit and a cardboard sword. In this case you'd pay zero and get a bunch of laughs.

Caddie1966 Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 I have an old jacket and pants from Snake-eyes. It’s sweaty. Like stated above by KCgolf, you get what you pay for. I don’t have to use mine often in Texas. I do use it in the winter for wind and cold layering. I would spend the $ on Goretex or Footjoy if I needed it often.

tony@CIC Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 I have FJ's rain gear - it's light and keeps the water out. I've only used it in light to med rain - since if it's a hard rain I'm not playing.

Golf2Much Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 I'm a fan of Zero Restriction rain wear. They have fold design near each shoulder that allows full range of motion. I've had a pair of their Gor-tex rain paints for probably 20 years and they still keep me dry. Zero Restriction tends to be on the expensive side, but if you look on eBay, I've gotten very nice used rain gear (pants, jacket and their rain hat is great) at a very reasonable price. sirchunksalot and tony@CIC 2 Quote Ping G430 Max driver 10.5 degrees with an Alta Quick45 gram senior shaft Callaway Epic 3 wood, Project X Evenflow Green 45 gram senior shaft Callaway GBB Epic Heavenwood, with a Mitsubishi Diamana 50 gram senior shaft Ping G 20.5 degree 7 wood, with a stock Alta 65 gram senior shaft Ping G 26 degree hybrid, stock Alta 65 gram senior shaft Callaway Paradym X irons, 7-AW with Aldila Ascent Blue 50 graphite shafts Edison wedges: 50, 55 and 60 degree, KBS Tour Graphite A flex shafts Putters: L.A.B.

Another Steve Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 I had a really nice FJ goreTex jacket that you could remove the sleeves to make it a short sleeve jacket or a sleeveless vest. It was light khaki and got accidentally washed with with a black sharpie and ruined. I have yet to replace it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So hopefully you will find a replacement in PA. Steez and Tees is selling leftover golf club branded clothing on Instagram. It’s hit or miss but you might find rain gear on it. I have seen some FJ non Goretex pullovers. Most of it is more shorts, shorts and half zips and it’s in the stories. Which means it’s not on an an online store. Sizes are limited. I picked up some great shorts from them. It’s legit, I got it delivered. Good luck with your search for rain gear.

Another Steve Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Whats even worse is that it was a prize at a golf outing so it didn’t cost me anything…… and it was a 3x so it actually fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
