Are you a fair weather golfer, only duffing on sunny days? Or, are you willing to brave a few meager raindrops in order to whack the ball around? Or, it could be you just occasionally get caught in a fast moving storm. No matter what the reason, if you are on the golf course in the rain, remember this; where there's rain, there could be lightning and guess what? You're a moving target! Standing under a tree, an umbrella or sitting in a golf cart will greatly increase your odds of staying dry… and getting toasted by lightning. But not to fear, my dear, Lightning Ribbons, suitable for both carts and umbrellas, are designed to allow you to stay dry and keep your eyeballs from lighting up.
When rain approaches, just reach for the top of your cart or umbrella and unfurl the electrically conductive ribbons. The ribbons hang to the ground, so when lightning strikes, all of the dangerous electricity is directed safely around you, back to Mother Earth. So far, so good. But here's the rub; where there's rain, there's usually wind, and we're not so sure that one of those ribbons won't blow up into your lap, just as Zeus decides to toss another one. Now that's gotta hurt.
