1st Issue of Magazine is Complete!

Attention all readers! Ever since early June there's been serious talk of a free online wiffleball magazine starting up and now it's a reality. When I first started this blog, I originally wanted to do a magazine with the same name. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all the writers who contributed articles to the 1st issue and Mason Everett for formatting this first issue. Without their assistance this idea would have remained just that...an idea. A project like this is simply too vast for only one person to achieve. Having said that, if you are interested in writing articles for future issues email us! Also, the magazine in .jpg form is in a little less quality and if you want it in it's full quality email us at wifflerdigest@gmail.com and you'll receive an attached .pdf file of the magazine. This will be your way of "subscribing" to the Wiffler's Digest Magazine and whenever the magazine is done it will be sent directly to you via-email.

Also, I know this first issue is only 19 pages but when you consider the fact that there is only one ad in this issue you should understand that it's acceptable for it being this short. Flip through any magazine and it's nearly 50% ads unless it's a fashion magazine...then it's more like 75-80% advertisements. Let us know how you like the 1st issue and if you have any comments or questions feel free to do so on this post, on our facebook page, or by email. Golden Stick readers may find the Performance Enhancing Bats article slightly offensive but if you have a rebuttal put it in article form and submit it to us and your side of the argument will be submitted. We want the magazine to be as diverse as possible and are not out to represent just one side of an argument or represent only one kind of league.

  1. When I was in little league, my bat could only be a certain size. Then in high school/college, the barrel got bigger, up to a certain size.

    When the level of wiffle goes up, so does the bat. Same idea. If your wiffle league has guys throwing 80+, the original yellow just doesn't cut it.

    this game is ruled by pitchers.

  2. This is a point I've heard from others when this argument has come up time and time again. This point alone is the most convincing, I think.
