Hi guys I'm after a layer to wear over the top of my under armour coldgear baselayer. I'm wanting a fleece type jacket ideally. Anyone help please? Cheers

I got a merino wool Polo Golf wind sweater for Christmas and the thing is awesome. It's lined to protect against wind and is not bulky at all. I usually wear it over just a short sleeve golf shirt and it keeps me warm to about 40 degrees. If it's colder than that I will put an Under Armour long sleeve compression coldgear shirt under the polo and then put the sweater on top. It works really well even in pretty cold temps.

A few different companies make versions of these lined wind sweaters. I know that FJ, Nike, and Under Armour all make them and I'm sure other companies do as well.

honestly, nothing seems to beat my Foot Joy rain suit jacket for keeping the warm inside.  The FJ jacket is the most wind-proof (which leads to me being cold!) clothing item I own.  Plus, it zips up to my chin, has velcro on arms to close that area off to wind and it's pretty lightweight and baggy enough to not restrict swinging while wearing.

Other than that, I have a couple of Nike quarter-zip mock neck shirts that are pretty thick.  I'm pretty sure they are the 'heat-gear' type material as well.  They also zip up to my chin.  So I'll wear an Under Armor heat-gear long-sleeved shirt, a Nike quarter zip (not fleece ... don't like it!) shirt zipped up over the Under Armor then my FJ rain jacket.  That usually keeps me pretty warm curing the early season cold months.

Got an LL Bean waterfowler's sweater for Christmas.   It's 100% wool and though it's thicker than most of the cold weather golf gear you will see in golf stores, it doesn't impair my swing.   Our course won't open if the temps aren't at least 32*.   With that sweater, if our course is open, I can play golf and be warm.

@Golfingdad might have some good input on sweaters... especially purple ones.

Being Scottish we are a decent reference point for sweaters! I have a really good Callaway half zipper that is really warm, comfortable and moves freely. If buying on line, bear in mind that Callaway seem to make their clothing a size too big! Agree with the poster mentioning Galvin Green, but Mizuno for me also manufacture some top quality outerwear. Try it on first though. I also have a DryJoys rainsuit that has served me very well. Worth remembering too that you do get what you pay for.

Check out the galvin green layering concept on their website! I play in anything from 30* to 50* in the winter, and I can't recommend their range highly enough! It does come at a price but quality usually does, and their waterproof range has a lifetime garauntee! Which says a lot!

      Favorite Las Vegas Course

      By Maroon88 ·

      I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

      Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
