When the heavens open, having one of the best golf umbrellas at your disposal is essential. And nowadays, there is a fantastic amount of choices on the market to suit both your wallet and taste. You should see this as an investment for the next decade, one which is relatively small given how much rain most of us play golf in. The best golf accessories make life easier and, when the weather goes south, is there anything more important than a brolly?
So what do the best models do? Well the most important factor is protection from the rain (and sun) and we have found good models give a large canopy of cover. Additionally they should help when the wind picks up and should be strong enough to deal with gusts as well so there are no comedy scenes of your umbrella doing tricks on the course.
Additionally top models fold down easily, conveniently, and be simple to store on the bag as well. And we all like some colour options to choose from.
Alternatively, if you need more rainproof gear, then be sure to check out our guides on the best golf waterproofs, the best waterproof golf shoes and the best waterproof golf bags too.
