I would LOVE to see a TGM magazine. I have tried to talk Brady from Golf Tips to include a TGM column by Yoda without success.
This is not easy. (read- money)
A magazine is a small corporation. There would be a question of financing the venture.
Who would be the advertisers that pays for each issue to be published? Every page in any newspaper or magazine is supported by advertisement. No ad- no page.
Who heads the subscription department, the marketing and promotion to get the magazine in the hands of golfers? Who will be the editor in chief? What do you pay for articles and pictures? Who shoots the cover? What is the lead story this month. A magazine is a whole lot of monkey to control.
I have tried to get the newspaper I work for to include a weekly Sunday golf lesson column featuring TGM. No was the answer, even if it was done by a local AI, let alone by Yoda.
The content you want to see in the magazine are excellent. Maybe they can be used as part this forum or an online ‘zine. Even a well written blog is far less expensive the even a single page of print.
If the new owners of TGM had any money or better yet, had someone else’s money, a quarterly or semi-annual magazine would be a dream come true for both of us, as well as many others that yearn for top notch, respected G.O.L.F. information.
