punter
Fourth-down specialist
A punter is someone who punts—kicks a ball before it hits the ground, especially in American football, or propels a flat-bottomed boat with a pole.
In British slang, a punter is a gambler who bets on horses, or more broadly, any customer or ordinary person: The pub was full of punters watching the match.
In Australian slang, a punter can be a prostitute's client.
