Rainkiller
How often do we have issues with wet clubs and therefore wet grips when playing in the Great British weather? It turns out it’s more often than not! Especially in certain parts of the nation! Rainkiller is a Danish innovation that aims to deal with the problem.

A golf club drying device that sits in the top of your golf bag.
How it works
A missile-shaped Rainkiller device sits in your bag alongside your clubs.
It generates hot air to dry your clubs and ensure you will never have wet slippery grips when golfing again!
The air holes on the Rainkiller device ensure that warm air is blown to the very bottom of your golf bag slowly so no scalding clubs.
