How to play in the rain
Golf is a hard game. There's no denying it. But things get so much tougher when we hit this time of year and the elements are against us. So, how do you play your best in the rain?
Clothing & Footwear
When we play golf, we’re outdoors for hours on end, and the weather is often very changeable throughout the coming colder months.
Now that we’re entering the golden autumn season, we’ll be welcoming some morning chills and brilliant sunsets over the coming weeks. We’ll also be needing to prepare for the weather being rather harsh and changeable.
It can be frustrating warming up and taking layers off only for the weather to cool down to put a jacket back on, but the latest clothing from PING has been designed to keep you comfortable whether the day ahead if promising colder temperatures, a brisk breeze or a downpour of rain.
Many of us will already be missing the summer as the colder temperatures call for thicker layers, but the latest mid-layers and jackets from PING are warming, stretchy, lightweight, and sure to prevent you from being blown about by the wind.
Our first recommendation from PING is the Firth Jacket. This piece features quilted panels on the exterior, and on the inside, PING’s Sensorwarm fabric offers both thermal and stretch properties to keep you warm and flexible when playing golf. With a full-zip fastening, you can slip this piece on in a pinch.
The Astle mid-layer is another fantastic garment from PING. This piece similarly features PING’s Sensorwarm fabric for peak thermal comfort, and the two-colour contrast between the torso and sleeves looks stunning. You’ll both be warm and look great wearing this mid-layer!
A grey rainy day can make you want to stay inside at all costs, and it’s no fun getting soaking wet. However, activity in the rain can feel like a real triumph, and you’ll feel perfectly safe and focused when you head out on the course in one of the latest PING waterproofs
If you’re on the hunt for a solid waterproof, look no further. The Taran 3L waterproof jacket is your solution. This jacket has a 3-layer stretch waterproof fabric construction, and the seam-sealed design fully prevents moisture from seeping through to your clothing. With an adjustable shock cord hem and cuff tabs, you’ll always find your ideal fit each time you wear it.
If you’re on the hunt for new golf clothing or you’re not sure what kinds we have available, why not pop by the pro shop? We’d be more than happy to run you through what we have available.
