There’s nothing worse than getting caught on the course in the rain unprepared – or prepared, but with the wrong gear.

You must have a good raincoat (different than water-resistant items), and you’re golden. With the selections below – for men and women – in tow, you’ll never have to worry about getting cold and getting soaked on the 13th hole again.
