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
It's far more than that
During the winter, we hardly leave home without looking out the window and checking the weather forecast first.
Getting caught in the cold rain when you nip down the shops can really dampen your mood, let alone when you’re midway through your round on the golf course.
However, poor weather is one of those things we’ve simply got to embrace in life, and let’s face it, it often looks much worse from the window. Playing through the rain and pulling off some great shots despite the harder conditions can feel incredibly rewarding.
It goes without saying that you need to be wearing clothing that’s up to the task of protecting you when you’re outdoors among the turbulent weather. So, what do you go for? Do you go for the standard raincoat you can find in any high street shop, or a quality waterproof purposefully built for golf?
In the pro shop, we stock stretchy waterproof golf jackets from PING in a variety of sizes for your convenience. These jackets are simply fantastic, but why should you choose a golf waterproof from PING over any other brand?
Why go with PING?
PING are renowned for their durable outerwear, and their jackets have been used by local golfers just starting out, right the way through to the best in the game. A still family-owned brand since 1959, PING is a leading figure across multiple product categories, from clubs to clothing, their gear is world-class.
Combining an effortlessly attractive blend of style and performance, PING’s apparel and outerwear will have you looking and feeling fantastic when you’re playing golf in the turbulent weather. Their phenomenal SensorDry tech keeps the wearer cool when working up a sweat and internally warm when faced with tough winds. The sealed seams also completely prevent moisture from seeping though.
These are exactly the kind of quality differences that makes going for a durable golf waterproof really worth it. If you head out on the course in a standard raincoat, you’ll feel the material feel uncomfortably restricting when turning through the ball, but a PING jacket feels superb with every shot.
One such PING golf waterproof you’ll no doubt find as comforting as it is practical is the Taran 3L Waterproof Jacket. Here’s why their latest outerwear is perfect for use on the golf course…
The PING Taran 3L Waterproof Jacket
The Taran 3L Waterproof Jacket is made from a fully waterproof polyester material, ensuring the fabric can effectively be pulled in any direction to ensure you don’t feel any restriction when you’re turning sharply through your golf swing.
You may well think that outerwear and protective clothing must be broad and bulky, but that simply isn’t the case with this jacket. The Taran 3L is lightweight and breathable, helping you feel nimble and ready for action from tee to green.
What really separates this from your everyday rain jacket is the sheer quality of the product’s design. PING’s 3-layer stretch fabric is durable while providing a snug fit over the torso and arms, and the adjustable shock cord on the hem and cuffs allows you to find your ideal fit each time you slip the piece on. The zip-sealed pockets also give you the peace of mind that your small valuables are safely stored away.
You can also get a matching pair of golf waterproof trousers to go alongside the Taran 3L Waterproof Jacket to keep your bottom half similarly protected. Wearing this whole outfit throughout the winter will have you embracing the conditions regardless of the weather forecast.
We stock all kinds of clothing and waterproofs in the pro shop, and if you’re considering getting yourself a dependable jacket for the coming winter, we’d be happy to help you find the right one in the pro shop.
