I did a quick check on FPO coverage last year, and GK was averaging about 20k for final-round coverage. Those videos are 9 months old. FPO on Jomez this year is already close to double that, with over 40k for Jonesboro, which is only a few days old. I think just the exposure of being on Jomez is helping.
The writing was on the wall for Jonez, I'm glad they worked out a deal to stay in the game. Disc Golf network does a good job of bringing in people who helped pave the way. Jeff spring starting to sound like a big business CEO already
How do you think this will effect media professionals trying to get a job in disc golf? Will it bring more opportunities or do you think DGPT could be "overstaffed"?
The disc golf market peaked during covid and theres going to be a serious pull back in sales. I think innova saw this coming when they let ricky go, people were paying people too much or expecting the growth to continue at a rate that wasnt sustainable. Unfortunately in the case of jomez, this will probably lead to more consolidation and monetization of pro coverage.
