Be careful what you wish for.

A recent December storm that caused more than $100 Million in damage (not to mention the $9700 inflicted on my car when I was sideswiped on the freeway) had me pulling out that beautiful jacket every day, for what seems like a week.

Before I start the review, let me preface it by saying I don't know the marketing names of all of the features. If I look at the website or printed literature first, it makes me lose focus on what I really like about the product. Also, the "swing factor" of this jacket was already proven to me before the rains started - I played golf one cool morning and it kept me warm without restricting my swing. So before I talk about how it performs in the rain, I'll discuss the general performance features I really like.

The Lining: Inside the jacket is a really supple lining that provides some warmth beyond a shell. I also like the soft lined pockets; they double as hand warmers (or dryers).

The Cinch-Strap and Elastic Waistband: No, I'm not describing a pair of underwear. This is a feature found on most golf jackets, which some of you may use and others may hate. I always like to tighten them up a bit, but the usual location, at the bottom cuff of the jacket, is illogical. The jacket tends to puff and bunch up. On the FootJoy jacket, the locking straps are inside the pockets. And on top of that, they don't just control a thin bungee cord; they pull on a 2" band made of elastic that is neatly tucked inside the liner. It works like a charm and is built to last.

The Outer Shell: This may be the only marketing term I get right, without looking. The shell on this jacket is extremely waterproof without being shiny, so when playing on a cool day it doesn't look like you're wearing a rain jacket. A nice feature from the cosmetic standpoint to be sure, but it also means there is low noise and brushing when swinging the club.

Now on to the rainwear aspects of this jacket.

Does it Pass the "Pineapple Express" Rainstorm Test? (No, we're not talking about the movie. The huge rainstorm I described is a result of a huge plume of water that hit California from Hawaii.) I have spent over $200 on a golf rain jacket in the past, and for that price one expects quality and the garment to be waterproof. This one beads the water so well that you have to shake it off like a dog before heading indoors. I have put it through a machine washing and it came out perfect, continuing to perform it's rain duties.

The ultimate test is that since I have acquired the FootJoy jacket, I haven't reached for my "other" go-to raincoat, and my only question is, when can I get the matching rain paints?

How did I do on describing the features without looking? Not bad, as it turns out. Here are a few notes:

The cinch system I described is called "It's a Cinch." The lining is simply described as a "Smooth Lining" and the pockets are said to provide for "hand comfort and warmth."

Things I missed:

The scorecard pocket. I have been using the lower side pockets which actually have plenty of room for a card, but I'm going to start using the chest pocket since that's what it's meant for. The velcro closures, which I didn't mention, at the bottom of each sleeve are convenient and highly functional. I also missed the fact that the zippers are waterproof and the seams are sealed and that's likely why FootJoy warrants the piece to be waterproof in normal conditions for two years, (USA).

FootJoy 30th Anniversary DryJoys Tour Shoe Revealed

300 special limited-edition 30th Anniversary DryJoys Tour shoes have been released to the public

• Sign up to Golf Monthly Newsletter Newsletter

FootJoy has revealed a special shoe to mark the 30th anniversary of the famous DryJoys franchise.

300 of the new DryJoys Tour 30th Anniversary shoes have been made available, celebrating the longest running performance golf shoe franchise in the world.

The DryJoys line was first launched in 1989. A waterproof shoe was something the entire golf shoe industry was looking for at the time, and the DryJoys from FootJoy turned out to be the answer.

30 years on, the franchise still flourishes and maintains that classic style in a market featuring plenty of new looks.

“In recent years we have seen a shift away from the traditional looking shoe in the general golf shoe industry," FootJoy's European Marketing Manager Paul O'Hagan said.

"However, the trust and support for the DryJoys franchise hasn’t wavered. To make it to thirty years, and still remain one of the most popular shoes is a testament to the quality and style.”

The original DryJoys used a Sympatex membrane to ensure waterproof performance, but through close collaboration and significant R&D efforts with Pittards of England, the 90’s saw the introduction of ECL - Extreme Comfort Leather.

The significance of this breakthrough was that FJ was able to remove the membrane, but through a special tanning process the waterproof characteristics of the product could still be maintained.

Removing the membrane made the shoe lighter, more breathable and more comfortable, without giving up anything in return.

As well as the developments in the leather, the outsole has seen several improvements over the years, from DryJoys, to DryJoys GX, DryJoys Pro, DryJoys PODS and later to DryJoys Tour.

The shoe has been heavily represented on global tours since its inception, with Zach Johnson notably trusting DryJoys for both Major wins, eight years apart at the 2007 Masters and the 2015 Open.

FootJoys say that the 'DryJoys Tour remains a seamless blend of traditional styling with cutting edge technology to enhance platform stability for the classically styled golfer'.

“While the style and design of the DryJoys has remained constant over the past thirty years each new introduction has delivered additional comfort, stability and traction with advancements in technology. This is proven by the significant number of Tour professionals who have put their faith in the DryJoys name over the past three decades," FootJoy Director of Product Management for Footwear, Richard Fryer, said.

“Looking forward, we’re constantly evolving the look and feel of the DryJoys brand. I can’t divulge too much information, but rest assured the renowned qualities of a DryJoys - comfortable, stylish, waterproof performance footwear - will be subtly enhanced, safely housed in a fresh, relevant and iconic silhouette.”

The limited- edition 30th anniversary edition is an iconic plain toe saddle style in a white/grey croc colourway, featuring a unique white midsole.

To celebrate, each pair will also feature commemorative FitBeds and will come with a shoe bag with the 30th Anniversary logo.

The 30th anniversary edition DryJoys Tour is available to purchase now for £150.

Savvino-storozhevsky monastery and museum.

Zvenigorod's most famous sight is the Savvino-Storozhevsky Monastery, which was founded in 1398 by the monk Savva from the Troitse-Sergieva Lavra, at the invitation and with the support of Prince Yury Dmitrievich of Zvenigorod. Savva was later canonised as St Sabbas (Savva) of Storozhev. The monastery late flourished under the reign of Tsar Alexis, who chose the monastery as his family church and often went on pilgrimage there and made lots of donations to it. Most of the monastery’s buildings date from this time. The monastery is heavily fortified with thick walls and six towers, the most impressive of which is the Krasny Tower which also serves as the eastern entrance. The monastery was closed in 1918 and only reopened in 1995. In 1998 Patriarch Alexius II took part in a service to return the relics of St Sabbas to the monastery. Today the monastery has the status of a stauropegic monastery, which is second in status to a lavra. In addition to being a working monastery, it also holds the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum.

Belfry and Neighbouring Churches

Located near the main entrance is the monastery's belfry which is perhaps the calling card of the monastery due to its uniqueness. It was built in the 1650s and the St Sergius of Radonezh’s Church was opened on the middle tier in the mid-17th century, although it was originally dedicated to the Trinity. The belfry's 35-tonne Great Bladgovestny Bell fell in 1941 and was only restored and returned in 2003. Attached to the belfry is a large refectory and the Transfiguration Church, both of which were built on the orders of Tsar Alexis in the 1650s.  

To the left of the belfry is another, smaller, refectory which is attached to the Trinity Gate-Church, which was also constructed in the 1650s on the orders of Tsar Alexis who made it his own family church. The church is elaborately decorated with colourful trims and underneath the archway is a beautiful 19th century fresco.

Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is the oldest building in the monastery and among the oldest buildings in the Moscow Region. It was built between 1404 and 1405 during the lifetime of St Sabbas and using the funds of Prince Yury of Zvenigorod. The white-stone cathedral is a standard four-pillar design with a single golden dome. After the death of St Sabbas he was interred in the cathedral and a new altar dedicated to him was added.

Under the reign of Tsar Alexis the cathedral was decorated with frescoes by Stepan Ryazanets, some of which remain today. Tsar Alexis also presented the cathedral with a five-tier iconostasis, the top row of icons have been preserved.

Tsaritsa's Chambers

The Nativity of Virgin Mary Cathedral is located between the Tsaritsa's Chambers of the left and the Palace of Tsar Alexis on the right. The Tsaritsa's Chambers were built in the mid-17th century for the wife of Tsar Alexey - Tsaritsa Maria Ilinichna Miloskavskaya. The design of the building is influenced by the ancient Russian architectural style. Is prettier than the Tsar's chambers opposite, being red in colour with elaborately decorated window frames and entrance.

At present the Tsaritsa's Chambers houses the Zvenigorod Historical, Architectural and Art Museum. Among its displays is an accurate recreation of the interior of a noble lady's chambers including furniture, decorations and a decorated tiled oven, and an exhibition on the history of Zvenigorod and the monastery.

Palace of Tsar Alexis

The Palace of Tsar Alexis was built in the 1650s and is now one of the best surviving examples of non-religious architecture of that era. It was built especially for Tsar Alexis who often visited the monastery on religious pilgrimages. Its most striking feature is its pretty row of nine chimney spouts which resemble towers.
