Winter 2007 Disc Golf World

Great issue with great photography and stories.  The contest photography winners are especially sweet.  Nice work by Jon, getting credit for a number of nice photographs. Also a nice full page ad for the 2007 BG Am Championships.

I wish I would have paid attention to the contest. I have some really cute pictures of my then 2-year old putting a putter in the basket. Nice pics Jon.

My copy just arrived on Monday January 8.

I just got mine yesterday also

Thanks, I hope I get mine today; I'd like to see what pictures Lynne decided to use. Sometimes I'm a little dissapointed in their choices or how they decide to crop them, but usually I'm happy with what they've done with the pictures I give them.

Looking forward to seeing it! Speaking of Jon's pictures, did the shots from Channahon ever make it up anywhere?

The one thing I wish they did differently would be to shrink and rotate the photo credit 90 degrees. The number of times I've looked at a picture and said, "That girl is not Jon Brakel" only to then realize that the photo credit was not the caption.

No, they have not. It is on my list of things to do though.

I agree. However, I think the reason that they do that is because they don't, as far as I know, pay any of their photographers so they feature their name prominently to compensate.

I've done the same thing when some well known player like Gregg Hosfeld submits photos of some tournament he was at.  I'm looking forward to seeing the magazine also.  We always get ours last.  Usually I get spoiler e-mail about my girls being in the magazine.  NO SPOILER E-MAIL!   

Kira got her picture in the newsprint magazine this time, by the way.

I too have been waiting to see those pictures from Channahon
