Nerf
Last week Prodigy released these discs in partnership with Nerf(Hasbro).
The second these hit the shelf at Sprinkle, they became our best selling disc.
The reality is that Nerf/Hasbro as a company is worth more than the entire disc golf industry combined.
This is a pretty big deal.
Right now these Nerf discs appeal to the every day disc golfer. I think it’s natural to assume this initial hype will die down. Disc Golf has a very short attention span. We’re always on to the next new thing.
Long term though, this item is way easier to sell into non-disc golf stores.
If you go into Academy Sports and Outdoors, their buyer likely won’t know much about most disc golf brands. They do know the name Nerf.
Nerf is a name we all grew up with.
There is a public trust in the name.
We already know what it feels like before we touch it.
As a business move, I think it’s one of the best disc golfer innovations I’ve seen in a while.
