“Redneck 24/7 hat”At the beginning of the day, Redneck 24/7 Hat looked like he was an inexperienced golfer. He powered through his swings at the driving range. He threw more power into his swing than Rocky hitting frozen slabs of meat. While most Marines and sailors sported semi-casual golf attire, Redneck 24/7 Hat wore cargo shorts, Nike running shoes with an orange sole and a grey polo.Unlike most others golfing, he had his pocket knife tucked into his left pocket. Who knows why. Maybe he felt like cutting a few blades of grass away from his golf ball while he was in the rough, who knows.He actually played pretty well. It goes to show you can’t really tell a golfer by the way he dresses himself. Though, in most cases, you can. - “Redneck 24/7 hat”At the beginning of the day, Redneck 24/7 Hat looked like he was an inexperienced golfer. He powered through his swings at the driving range.
