As our three readers arrived at Forest of Arden, the skies were dull and threatening.
You wouldn’t have taken the chance that it wasn’t going to chuck it down.
As it happened, the rain stayed away.
We’d already worn the new Ping Tour Eye suit in heavy rain so could vouch for its performance in extreme conditions.

So would wearing the suit for the entire 18 holes hamper our trio?
We’ll let them speak for themselves but it proved a waterproof suit doesn’t need to be packed away when the rain stops.
And you can even keep it on for a pint in the clubhouse afterwards.

Handicap: 7
Club: Manchester GC
First impressions: It had a really nice soft and lightweight feel. It struck me as something that could be worn in windy conditions as well as when was raining because it was so light and flexible.
Performance: I really liked the draw string on the actual jacket itself which wasn’t flapping about at all and you could have it as tight of as loose as you need it. I was especially impressed with the long zip on the bottom of the trousers. It was really handy as you didn’t struggle at all to get your foot through which is the last thing you need when it starts raining on the golf course.
