MGL-TV MOVES TO FOX SPORTS NET DETROIT
Previous

Michigan Golf Live – the State’s leading golf radio and tv programs – is going to a “big league” new home. The television version of the program, MGL-TV, will begin airing Saturday mornings at 11 a.m. on Fox Sports Net Detroit (FSN Detroit).

In addition, the half-hour show will be replayed Sundays at 9 a.m. and Thursdays at 12:30 p.m.


“This move to FSN Detroit allows us to shine the spotlight on our state's top golf destinations, reaching almost 4 million homes,” said Executive Producer and MGL host Bill Hobson. “We're excited to showcase the beauty and challenge of the top courses and resorts.”

MGL began as a syndicated golf radio show in April of 2000. Now in its seventh season, the show is broadcast live every Saturday morning from 8-10 a.m. and carried on 12 affiliates, covering every major metropolitan market in the state. The show is on location each week from the top golf destinations around the state and around the country.

FSN Detroit is carried on every cable and satellite affiliate, in more than 3.6 million homes in Michigan, Northern Ohio, and Northern Indiana.

“We are impressed with the production quality of the show along with the show's primary focus on Michigan courses. We're excited to bolster our line-up with a quality golf program that is reflective of our region,” said Lisa Giles, Program Director at FSN Detroit.

“Our goal at MGL is to grow and celebrate the game,” added Hobson. “Being a part of the FSN Detroit family allows us to reach out to golfers in three states and share the joy of America's best golf state!”

MGL-TV will debut on Saturday, June 3 with its show featuring Arcadia Bluffs.

MGL-TV can also be viewed online on the MGL-TV page.

Hosted by Hobson, Jon Bloom, and Todd Arner, Michigan Golf Live is a production of Hobson Media Enterprises, and is presented by the 2006 Buick Open and King Par Golf.
