Wearing a golf shirt

Argyle golf shirts may get a bad wrap off the course. In fact, most golf fashion will evoke stares and sour looks if you step off the links and dare to wander into the real world with it still on your back. Knickers, beanies, sweater vests these clothes have a certain nineteenth century charm to them, sure, but this is after all the twenty-first century.

One friend of mine makes it his duty to inform you whether or not you re wearing appropriate attire off the course. Dare to wear a collared polo shirt in front of him in a public place, plaid, argyle, or plain colored, and he will promptly let you know that you are wearing a golf shirt. He doesn t say it in a nice way either. It s as if he wants you to change right then and there. The funny thing is, he is a golf course design architect. The man s whole wardrobe consists of golf shirts and sweater vests.

The progress of Bass Proshop

Bass Proshop started on a simple premise. They saw a need in the fishing market, and decided that if no one else was going to satisfy this need, well, heck, they sure would do it. More than 30 years later, the business is an empire. Its stores are across the country. Its products are used in streams, lakes, and oceans across the world. And it s logo is practically as household as the golden arches or the red can of cola.

But back in 1971, no such business existed. The world s best fishermen were left to scrape together gear. In many cases, they were forced to compete with a motley mix of subpar gear. Their choices for rods, reels, and tackle were just not consistent, nor were they specialized enough to match their top-notch skills. Then came Bass. Started in Springfield, Missouri in a store that could hardly be called that it had just eight feet of space to it Bass Proshop began. Their first set of wares included equipment that would find on the tournament circuit that year.

Since then, the company has built its reputation only providing the best equipment that you ll find on the bass fishing tournament tours. They are masters of innovations, whether it be on their equipment, their boats, or even their stores.
