What's in the Bag?

March 2008: I just bought a new bag, though it's not specifically for Disc Golf. I usually buy travel luggage or fishing "tackle" bags as they seem to have plenty of pockets and most are pretty waterproof. I have been playing since 1979, and have had only two or three smaller bags which were made for disc golf. All my old disc bags end up being carriers for extra discs.

This new bag is a "Reliance" fishing tackle bag (from K-Mart $29), very lightweight, easily holds 15+ discs with room for a towel, pockets for stuff like your wallet, pencils, and change. It has a water bottle holder and a small zippered pouch for your sunglasses on one side, and a larger zippered pocket on the other side. Each side also has a small mesh pocket - great for a cellphone! The top flap has a zippered vinyl "map" pocket. Built-in "D-Rings" allow easy hookup of backpack-style bag straps.

Oh, What's in the Bag?? Too many discs to throw in one round...don't forget the SanDisk M240 MP3 Player...

Bruce, I just hope your discs survived when you ran over it! Champion and Star discs probably held up, but those poor DX guys are gonna have a little more flavor!

I use a Plano brand fishing tackle bag for casual play. I like the small handles so you can carry it at your side. I've had it for four years. It is still in pretty good shape. It was on sale for $5 when I got it because someone had taken the plastic fishing lure boxes out of it. I've run it over with the car. It is a tough bag.
