Rain jacket, which one?

[Smoothie]

I'm looking for a new wind/rain jacket. I don't play much in the rain, yes I'm a wimp, so the jacket is more for some warmth, block the wind, and play in spring showers and light rain.

Anyone have a Storm jacket? Here's the link from the GT site.

I'd like to get the FJ Dryjoy, but $300 for a jacket doesn't do it for me.

Thoughts?
Thanks!!

I have a Storm vest wich i use with a sweather( well actually a couple of sweaters, got to keep the old bones warm) and for what i paid for it !0 bucks it has been very good in the rain and wind.Never got wet and very light.

what size are you? I have a M/L Stormtech jacket and pants for sale. All black (check the classifieds - other golf stuff). It's as good as the storm line. I bought one of the Sunice Goretex rain suits - there is no substitute but it cost me a small fortune.

Three years ago my wife bought me a short sleeve Second Skin rain jacket for summer use. It is a great rain jacket, keeps me warm and dry. The nice thing was the cost was only $40 + taxes at the time. By far the cheapest rain jacket on the market then. Check them out, you can find Second Skin on the net.

Custom fitted to your size and made right here in Ontario ... hfs

My son has a full set of basically everything except the rain vest.

I bought the Misty Mountain jacket at Le Baron, here in Montreal. I think there's one in Ottawa too. Works for me, but I'm not too fussy. Best thing about it is I paid $30 and it sells for $50 at Golf Town. Just goes to show what the mark-up is on clothes at GT.

i golfed in the fall in the rain - it was a tournament otherwise I wouldn't have played. I got soaked so enough was enough, I found a Goretex sunice jacket at GT for 50% off after christmas. Now i have no worries about rain.

And the January 6th round you played, was in a tournament?
I know - the fact it was January 6th was reason to play ALL by itself.
I know cus I was there in the rain too. Thats where those Sun Mountain push carts come in handy - with the umbrella holder on them. Stay dryer longer!

Ditto what jeffc says. If you really want to stay dry Gore-Tex is the only way to go.

I've played in downpours with mine. Once you are dry, which you are with Gore-Tex, playing in the rain is actually kind of nice.

ya well, that was a different story

your cart rocked in the rain with that umbrella set-up. it was the only time I've ever wanted a push cart.

I bought a Callaway rain jacket off Ebay last year and I'm really happy with it. I used it last Fall when it was just above zero to golf in, so it's good for warmth too. The nice thing about it is that all the zippers and seasm are sealed with rubber, so it's pretty waterproof.

I guess it depends what you need. Obviouly can't wear a warm one like your's during a summer rainstorm - u'll die from the heat - lol. So if we sit here long enough we can probably justify reasons to buy 5 or 6 different rain jackets - LOL.

You'd probably get a lot of different opinions. Mine breaths enough to wear in the summer, but I'd rather wear the short sleeved ones. Don't forget, it's not hot and humid when it rains here like it is in Ottawa.

actually, that's the beauty of Gore-Tex. It breathes and let's the moisture out while keeping the rain out as well...

I have a number of Sunice jackets that were left over from a tournament last year. They are about 1/3 retail. What size are you and I will send you information.
