In honor of the recently released Country Strong this post is an ode to the American values that Tim McGraw—with the help of his gritty beard—stands for. From his tender ballad about his father, to his portrayal of reliable and manly family figures, Tim McGraw defines true down-home, country standards. Tim McGraw’s beard embodies the reliability, genuineness, and honest to goodness ruggedness we all desire in a man. If Tim McGraw’s facial hair doesn’t do it for you, there’s no need to worry—this movie offers Garrett Hedlund as Beau Hutton and features yet another rustic beard.
