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 Galvin Green 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 Galvin Green are warming, stretchy, lightweight, and sure to prevent you from being blown about by the wind.
Our first recommendation from Galvin Green is the Dion mid-layer. This piece features a quarter-zip that can be done up to the neck to prevent any cold winds from going through you. Featuring the brand’s INSULA fabric, this piece is light, breathable, and will certainly keep you warm.
Another fantastic piece from Galvin Green, the Drake sits close to the body and regulates your body temperature to keep your core warm. The piece also has quick dry properties that ensure you won’t feel damp for long should you be playing through a patch of rain.
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 Galvin Green waterproofs.
If you’re looking for a new waterproof for the season ahead, look no further, Galvin Green’s Ames Rain Jacket is built to keep you stable in the toughest of weather. The piece is fully waterproof and is highly breathable, and the 3-layer PERTEX fabric makes the Ames a joy to wear all day long.
