Looking at getting a new waterproof jacket for the winter.

Does anyone have any recommendations on any to look at?

Willing to spend up to £100 so can hopefully pick up something decent for that price

Check out Affordable Golf or Function 18, they both often seem to have some good stuff at reduced prices. Maybe Clubhouse Golf as well.

I have a new Sunderland jacket that has a life-time guarantee. Cost close to £100 from pro. Probably able to pick one up for less on line.

I have a waterproof jacket with hood from a walking outlet. Certainly cheaper than the prices charged for golfing jackets.

Yeah, I got my 'golf waterproof' from TK Maxx, £25 for a water-resistant New Balance jacket with a hood. Does the job just fine in conjunction with my umbrella stand on the trolley and waterproof cap I just bought. I bought it in Small size so it wouldn't be baggy at all, and one of the things I like about it is the gathered elasticated cuffs on the sleeves, as I prefer to push them up slightly so my wrists are free.

Can't go wrong with Galvin Green. You can often pick up last year's models for around your budget if you shop about. It'll last you forever too!!

Oh yes you can! Their quality is definitely not what it used to be. I know a few people who have had issues with the products that are now made in China at ever increasing cost.

A good fitting breatheable one, as you'll no doubt be wearing it on warmer wet sessions too, so the breathing really helps.
I got an UA one and very pleased with it.
