Unfortunately, the end of summer is in sight and that means the golf season is drawing to a close for many of us. Fall brings cooler temperatures, varying weather and less predictable golf conditions.

This is where rain gear can become an essential part of your equipment. Thankfully, Galway Bay has a wide range of products to help golfers be prepared for any weather on the course. 

Galway Bay says: “We designed our Performance Outerwear to be versatile, comfortable and fashionable. Galway Bay provides protection from the wind and rain while still allowing players to take an unrestricted swing. So you can look and play great even when the weather isn’t.

“All Galway Bay jackets and pants are made from our proprietary fabric, Galway Bay Hydro-Flex 32. This breakthrough material is a three-layer fabric with double durable water repellent coating including Teflon that’s designed to not only keep water from getting in, but to allow sweat to get out.”

Sounds pretty good? I think so but we want four of you to test Galway Bay rain gear to see if these claims hold true.

A chip and run shot in golf is a short, low-trajectory shot that is used when you want to get the ball onto the green quickly and have it roll towards the hole. It's a handy shot to have in your golf arsenal, especially when you have a clear path to the green with no major obstacles in the way. Here's how to execute a chip and run shot effectively:

1. Club Selection: Choose a club with a lower loft, such as a pitching wedge, 9-iron, or even an 8-iron. The lower loft will help keep the ball low and rolling.

2. Ball Position: Position the golf ball slightly back in your stance, closer to the back foot. This setup encourages a downward strike on the ball, promoting a low trajectory.

3. Grip and Stance: Maintain your regular grip but favor a slightly open stance. An open stance means your front foot (left foot for right-handed golfers) is pulled back a bit compared to your back foot. This setup encourages a cleaner, descending strike on the ball.

4. Weight Distribution: Shift your weight slightly onto your front foot. This weight shift helps ensure a downward strike and prevents you from hitting the ball too high.
