Guest Pen: Eero Nopsa Kaunisto - Sawo Disc Golf Wanted Stylish Team Apparel

Sawo Disc Golf ry is a disc golf club operating in the Savo region, founded in the year of our Lord 2023.

The club’s main goals are organizing competitions, promoting and developing awareness of disc golf, and encouraging the practice of disc golf in the club’s hometown and more broadly in the South and North Savo regions.

The club was born from the thoughts of five friends who wanted to establish a club focused almost exclusively on competitions and their organization. Not just in their hometown, but more broadly on courses throughout the Savo region. The aim is to satisfy as many disc golf enthusiasts as possible. During the summer, the club also plans to organize extensive junior activities and some playful competitions.

Since the goal was to operate more broadly, strong club cooperation had to be included in the priorities. Why not, since all disc golfers share the same enthusiasm and love for the sport.

On social media, I came across a few Fuzzy Eagle ads, which I initially didn’t associate with disc golf apparel due to the sheer number of Facebook ads. It wasn’t until later that this connection became clear. Some time later, the gentlemen at PowerGrip gave a hint in their newsletter, announcing they were discontinuing their team apparel service.

Disc golfers love beautiful things, so stylish team apparel fits the club’s image perfectly… And boy, when I finally explored Fuzzy’s clothing offerings, they were indeed beautiful! Without further ado and with fewer thoughts, I requested a call, and the next day Mr. Fuzzy called me.

Our wishes for the collection were that we wanted the color scheme to reflect the Savo coat of arms: gray, a touch of black, and a pinch of yellow mixed together somehow. It took some time to exchange and comment on plans and an endless number of messages internally within the club (thanks to Fuzzy for their patience) that I circulated among the club’s board members. Everyone had opinions and wishes on what the apparel should look like, but without much bloodshed, we finally reached a conclusion that met everyone’s desires.

The design process for the clothing collection on Fuzzy Eagle’s side was astonishingly fast, to the point where the rapid pace was almost frightening. The first draft came very quickly, and we wanted some small changes. Version 2.0 came quickly, less than two hours later, and still on a sunny Sunday. This version was excellent and quickly received approval from everyone. The final creation of the entire clothing collection took a bit longer, but in reality, it was only about three days. Amazingly fast work all around.

Despite the fast pace, which Sawo DG’s slow brains couldn’t quite process, the experience and cooperation were very pleasant. And most pleasantly, in addition to the apparel, we developed a small-scale collaboration for future competitions!

I can warmly recommend Fuzzy Eagle to all disc golf clubs and individuals. They are professionals and wizards in their field, and they seem to be very nice people as well.

Peace & Love, Eero Nopsa Kaunisto - Sawo Disc Golf ry
