Clutter Reduction

**immts007** · February 10, 2008

I've built up quite a huge stack(s) of Golf Tips, Golf Digest, and Golf Magazine - I'd love to toss them in recycling and reduce some clutter in the house but there are lot's of great articles and tips etc, that I don't want to lose.

Does anyone know if there is anyway to obtain/purchase an electronic archive on DVD or back issues in PDF format?

I too had a lot of magazines that I had retained just for one relevant article. It was getting ridiculous. This is what I did. First I clipped all of the relevant articles from each magazine. I could then toss the magazines. I then just put the articles in a file and would refer to them when I needed them. About a year ago, I purchased an all-in-one printer/fax/copy/scanner. This allowed me to scan all of my articles and store them in PDF format. It works great.

Also, you will find that many of the major magazines now have the same content on their websites. You can simply bookmark the link to the page or you can actually save the webpage to you hard drive.

yeah, clipping and saving or scanning is something I've already considered, but would rather avoid the work if possible

Thanks for idea about locating the articles online - I'll try that for sure.

DVD or CD archives would be a really nice service to offer subscribers though, don't you think?

Yeah, that would be great, but you would have to search through a bunch of junk on the CD/DVD as well. Most of the magazines are loaded with so many tips, a lot of it contradictory, that usually only a few really apply to my swing. I now just cut out what is relevant and toss the magazine each month. True initially setting it up may take some time, but it beats having to sort through a bunch of old magazines to find something. Golf.Com has stuff out there from 2005 so you might already have articles out there.
