Peter Millar Merge Hybrid Review
Outerwear · 12 rounds in my bag

9.6/ 10
The short version
Two holes in with the Peter Millar Merge Hybrid I knew: it blocks the wind without turning me into a bin bag over the ball. I played through steady drizzle for two hours and stayed dry and swinging freely. The catch: the hood is more decorative than useful in real wind.
How it played
Straight into the bag for 12 rounds with no easing-in period. What I keep coming back to is that it blocks the wind without turning me into a bin bag over the ball. Where it bit me: the hood is more decorative than useful in real wind — worth knowing before you spend the money.
How it looks
Quiet fabric and a cut that does not balloon in a breeze. I care less about that than how it feels, but it does not hurt.
What won me over
- fully waterproof through a long wet round
- it is silent through the swing
- the sleeves do not ride up on the backswing
Good to know before you buy
- the price is serious
- the hood is not much use in wind
My verdict
9.6/10 from me. If you play in weather other people cancel in, the Peter Millar Merge Hybrid earns its spot in the bag. If the price is serious is a dealbreaker for you, keep looking.
