Shorthair Journal
The Shorthair Journal is a print magazine that is published 6 times a year for all the members of the German Shorthaired Pointer Club of America. It is a professionally produced magazine that averages approximately 80+ pages per issue.
The Shorthair Journal is an interesting mix of articles on Health & Welfare of GSPs, training tips on our versatile breed, club events, as well as advertising. It can connect you to local and regional GSP Clubs, breeders, officers and committee members as well as to other members. Additionally, it includes articles on Field Trial events, Specialty Conformation Shows, and information of interest to our 1,500+ members.
GSPCA members will have each issue emailed or mailed to the address provided on their membership application. As a bonus, each issue of the Shorthair Journal will be emailed to 350 AKC GSP breed judges. If reaching this client group is an integral part of your show plans, and you want to “thank” those judges who have rewarded your GSP with placements and points, the Shorthair Journal gives you the most “Bang For Your Advertising Buck” when compared to other print media.
