There was a pretty good article about our local club in the Summer 2012 issue. I even got my picture in there too, lol. That said, I think that's the only issue I've ever looked at cover to cover.
I sure don't see everyone being a fan, but random comments like "is nothing more than a ego trip for board members", seems to miss the mark for me. Especially from such a fan of the ego driven, pro player, Youtube content. Maybe you are part of the inner board circle, leaving me without your insight?
I don't agree with the "everything has to be electronic" crowd. I don't own a cell phone and strive to spend as little time in front of a computer as I can. (says the guy replying on a laptop, on a disc golf site). I enjoy magazines. I still get Men Health, Rolling Stone, Sports Illustrated. *Thanks to my Mom for the Christmas gifts, of the above.
Here's one reason the printed version of the magazine will likely stick around. There's credibility for the sport among the outside media and especially the decision makers at park depts, manufacturers, entrepreneurs, who aren't keeping up with the steady barrage of opinions and information from social media and the internet, that can't be discounted as contributing towards continued growth of the sport.
80% of PDGA Am members could say and have said the same thing about their subsidization of pros plus half of the pros about subsidizing the elite pro tour.If ads + subscription revenue isn't covering the mag's expenses then there shouldn't be a mag.

It's obviously not dead, just less prominent.Nonsense. Print media is dead. Nobody cares. Magazine is a huge waste of money.
