DG on TV in your town?

[Joe Wander]

The latest edition of Disc Golf Live video magazine is in the hands of our broadcast partners and uploaded to our file sharing system for broadcast at community and public access stations across the US. DGL offers great action for those of us who already know and love our favorite sport, but more importantly, DGL reaches thousands of potential new players from coast to coast as we work to grow participation and awareness of disc golf. If you've got community TV in your town, we're happy to set you up with FREE DVDs to submit locally, and that can most easily happen when a local resident like you gets involved and joins the station. Don't wait for DGL to do it, because we usually can't due to residency requirements.

Our featured event for episode 36 is the 2009 United States Disc Golf Championship, from Rock Hill, SC. We’ve got three tales from the demanding Winthrop Gold course, starting with a look at how players are tackling the ever-evolving fourth hole. We follow that up with an early round summary of the battle for the title, and finish up with a look at the final round, including coverage of the top few cards on some pivotal holes. And for those of us who miss the fairway now and then, we check in with Mike Randolph as he offers up a few techniques for helping folks get out of trouble. Thanks to Paper and Plastic Sports, Innova, Discraft, and the PDGA for supporting production of Disc Golf Live video magazine.

Two other points of interest. If you'd like to see your local scene represented on DGL, we welcome all sorts of stories to mix in with the ones we produce ourselves. Work with folks on your end to showcase some aspect of Disc Golf in your neck of the woods. Or the desert, or the plains. We'll help you spread the word. Finally, if you don't have a local access station but want to support our adventure, consider a subscription for our Home version, which is formatted for more convenient viewing. Details at http://www.discgolflive.com. Mention this site and we'll give you our PDGA rate of $36 for six one-hour episodes. We also offer tasty wholesale pricing for retail and players packages. Contact us about your ideas.

Take care,

Joe

Can you send me an information package to my E-mail

tru4real4444@yahoo.com

I have finally been in contact with the local access channel....

Actually randomly met them at hole 1 at Tully...they were interested in finding details on who to contact for a charity DG Event....strange how the World works..months of e-mails and then meet them on the course and they are asking for help....! So the DG Club now has a great inside contact and we are hosting several events for their causes.....

They are interested in doing an Event for local coverage..much like a local football/basketball game...and are also interested in the program PDGA offers...we hope to donate the $$$ from Club Funds and maybe have an Event to support local DG media.....this will only help a booming area grow to the next level......

Thank You

Episode 44 of Disc Golf Live video magazine has been uploaded to Youtube and is now available for viewing. This episode features footage from the Am Nationals, a tour of Renny Original (a Worlds 2012 course) provided by the Clash, featuring Michael Johansen. The Scandinavian Video Mafia checks in with some SDGO footage, and we also get a look at the Darkside course at the Blockhouse (formerly, "the Grange") in Spotsylvania, VA, another feature courtesy of the Clash. (This Clash battle pits Brian Skinner and Stan McDaniel vs. Brian Schweberger and Al Sugar Schack.)

Thanks to the Mafia and Clash for supporting our efforts to grow the game of disc golf by providing great footage. While we're glad disc golfers all over can catch our show on Youtube, we're really looking for broadcast opportunities on local and community access TV stations to expose newcomers to our favorite game. DGL is already broadcast on many stations, but we always welcome new outlets, big or small. If you have community TV in town, contact them and see what it takes to get a show on the air and then drop us a line. We always provide our broadcast DVDs for free and also underwrite free program downloads at pegmedia.org. Here are the two parts of this episode:
