When the rain comes...

Nothing, just get wet.

Need to get a bucket one.

Nice, I would wear it but it would make me look pail.

This bad boy:



I wore it 2 weekends ago in torrential conditions. For 15 holes it didn't miss a beat....and then suddenly for the final 3 I could feel the dampness. Not unhappy though as it was proper pouring down.

Oh and the answer is yes, I do look like a complete tool wearing it.

I wear a Lowe Alpine 'luggie' mountaineering cap.
You can shape the wired peak around your glasses and also keep your head warm.

I'm a fair weather golfer.

If it is raining that hard then I'm not out there!

Assume you don't wear glasses. Apologies if I'm wrong.

 

[StrangelyBrown]

Just wear nothing. Head gear not required!

Same here.

I find that the best thing to keep you dry is the roof of a pub and we're not allowed to wear hats in the bar anyway.

Another bucket hat wearer here.

I have a Footjoy bucket hat and it really keeps the rain off my glasses when playing. I use to use a perspex visor that I found in the small ads of a golf magazine. I still have it somewhere. That was really good as well, but it did get a few funny looks and comments from playing partners!!

Not to play golf no, I can see enough to get by without them. I would however use contacts if I needed them. I hate wearing glasses of any description for golf.

I wear a Nike Stormfit cap...not really had an issue with rain down the back of my neck, either that or I just dont notice.

Balls, nearly bought one of those yesterday but the label said it was only waterproof during light showers or something. May have to do a revisit.

What headgear do you wear?
I had a cap on last time and the water dripping from the peak which was a right nuisance, I'm sure it's why I missed so many putts that day :thup:

So what's the alternative to a cap which will stop the damn dripping?

Turn it backwards during a shot if it is dripping off the peak.

If you are concentrating on your golf properly you shouldn't even notice the rain. It's a mental thing.

Couldn't find any of my normal headgear today - so ended up wearing a combat-style camouflage 'baseball' cap. Was that OK to wear? - I got a feeling that a couple of my PPs thought it just stepped over the line.
