My rain gear kicks @$$. Starting at the bottom I wear the Oboz Firebrand shoes, expensive but durable, waterproof, and great for disc golf, next is waterproof gaiters, water proof and breathable pants - legs sweat has to escape, a waterproof and breathable jacket that is just a shell because I am a sweater - snug but not too tight and definitely not too loose with velcro/elastic cuffs so the don't slip over my hands, and HUGE umbrella. My golf umbrella is what I go to first to keep me dry and if it's miserable then I will layer up. I get ALL of my rain gear at REI. Their return policy alone is worth any extra cost - perhaps I did not get my umbrella there though. I think my rain jacket is Mountain Hardwear or along those lines and it has its own stuff sack that I can cram into/or clip to my bag if I no longer need the jacket. Raingear is a must.
