    Hi guys and girls,

    Just looking for your advice in relation to best type of raingear to buy for golf.

    I'm new to golf so im looking for advice on the best wetgear (jacket and trousers) Budget would be around €200 maximum if you can actually get some for that price.

    Thanks

    cutter&buck suit 3 yr warranty around €160 cant beat it for value. Its breathable unlike some cheaper suits which is very important

    Exactly, and the more he spends the longer it will be until it rains so dig deep into your pockets OP.
