So you're saying boys aged 10-15 are going to play golf bc DP did trickshots at Augusta? I don't thnk thats happening. I also am plenty aware of the reach of DP. Do you think more kids playing other sports bc of DP?




No, I am saying your comment that all of Dude Perfect's viewers already know what the masters are is completely wrong. DP's viewers are more the 6-12 range than 10-15 and most of those kids don't have a clue what the masters is.

Their main demographic is 6-12 year old white middle class to upper class suburban dwellers

They all know what the freaking masters is

yeh, I’m sure a bunch of urban youth who don’t watch golf and all and don’t know the masters are huge dude perfect fans and now will take up golf

Really people? It’s a group of college graduate white guys called “dude perfect”. Their freaking base already knows golf and the masters This isn’t going to bring in a new wave of golf viewers

They have 57 million subscribers and 14 billion video views, compared the ~10 million Masters sunday viewers or ~25 million golfers in the US. There just might be a chance that they reach someone new who doesn't really know about the Masters or Augusta National. your life might be centered around the first week of April, but most people's isn't.

Nice strawman. It doesn’t “hurt” anything. What would it “hurt” to allow shorts at Augusta? What would it “hurt” to allow baba booray and mashed potatoes to be yelled at Augusta?

Simple answer is sometimes it’s kinda fun to keep old traditions and treated certain things as “above it” .

I was first aware of the Masters as a 10 year old when Fred Couples won. Honestly not that many kids have the ability to sit and watch golf on TV.

I don’t disagree. But dude perfect throwing footballs and hitting hockey pucks isn’t going to change that

It was a cheap gimmick by ANCC.
