First round I took this out was a wet one, and it wasn't forecast so I found myself playing without an umbrella, and yet still, my scorecard remained dry throughout. A little water does get inside the top cover and tends to pool in the pencil well, but usually it would get better protection from an umbrella, so I won't hold that against it. I also like the convenient draw to keep a couple of spare balls and tees. Much better than digging around in the bag when you need to hit that provisional. Only have it 4 stars for value though as I feel it's pretty expensive for what it is, but it does the job great.
