1. Waterproof trousers and jackets. When the rain comes, waterproof gears protects your body from being wet, making sure they remain totally dry under trousers and jacket.
Goretex is the material used for such waterproof gears and the most effective and efficient waterproofing material available. It uses an absorbent film either between the layers of tissue or a sealing layer. The openings of the film are small enough to keep out water, but large enough to allow air and water vapor to flow and circulate. This is an advantage when playing in prolonged rainy periods.
When buying a waterproof jacket or pair of pants should seek outerwear that comes with a warranty. Leading manufacturers of waterproof gears offer a guarantee of three years and this may be worth the investment.
2. Rainproof golf gears. These gears are not made with Goretex but are usually made from Teflon treated fabric, which has the tendency to retain water to pass through only for a specified period, and allow air to pass through and may draw liquid through the tissue over the long exposure to rain.
Lightweight and not so expensive compared with waterproof gear, this is perfect when played in short rains.
3. A windproof. It’s built to stop the wind. This is an effective option when playing in windy climates. Some types of fishing gear are also Windproof Teflon treated offering a minor level of resistance to water, but are not intended to be used in rainy weather. Cheaper than waterproof raincoat or gear, which can be a hot choice for cold weather use?
