Needless to say we get rained on more than average... I have rain gear but i'm looking for something better and suits me. I have a non-golf pancho and it has gotten me through the last year... haha i know its a funny story behind the pancho...
Lets just say that the pancho was pink and it has a duckies on it and i lost in a game that involved an ice luge...
Anyways I am looking for rain gear that's not too lose where it'll interfere with my swing and not so tight were it restricts it....
any suggestions are welcome (none that don't involve non-golf rain gear plz).

You will find lots of threads on here about rain gear if you do a search. Lots of people have Footjoy, Galvin Green, and Zero Restrictions.
Personally, I have the Zero Restrictions goretex pants, zip off sleeves jacket, and bucket hat. I have played in all day rain several times and have come out dry and comfortable. What I like most about the ZR brand is that the goretex fabrix doesn't look like rain gear - it looks like regular jacket material. So you can easily wear it on cold mornings or windy days, just as an extra layer, then peel it off as the day warms up. Very versatile. It is expensive but believe me well worth the money.
For all the gear, though, you really need to find a store and try on and see what you like about fit and fabric. Everyone has different preferences.
