At this moment I have 22 discs of 11 molds in my bag. 8 happen to be in slightly different stages of wear but 4 aren't so I could potentially choose 18 different discs in a competitive round...i.e. no typical second/practice throws lol...but at my home course I estimate I might only throw about 13ish give or take a couple. Plus I often have more discs and molds in my bag so 20+ is more accurate.
 
My current bag carries about 12, but my usual round makes use of about 5. 2 putters, 1 mid and 2 drivers. Most of my extras are drivers that I usually only pull out on occasion for the rare sidearm or particular tee shot that I want to give a try.
 
I've been trying to only carry what I throw, with an exception for backups. There are 11 in my bag as of today, 2 of which are back ups. I usually throw 6 or so, depending on the course, but sometimes if I'm really grooving on a particular disc, say a Teebird for example, I might only throw that disc and leave the others of that class alone. I've definitely shot well on 3-4 discs before.
 
Some people pull carts. I ride a lawn tractor with a utility cart attachment. That way I can carry roughly 200 discs, but, in a 9 hole round, I'll probably only actually throw half of them or so.

Here is a picture of my sweet whip.

:-D

I carry around 20 discs, but usually I end up using maybe 10 of them in a 18-hole round. I carry 8 molds, some backups, couple of utility discs which I rarely use. 90% of the time I'm throwing either a wraith, fuse, mako3 or my sirius omega putter.
 
Carry about 23 discs, though I've been trying to pull some very seldomly used out of the bag lately. On a typical round at my home course I would usually use:
GStar Aviar
GStar Aviar Driver
Buzz OS
GStar MD3
CE Eagle
12x Champ KC Pro TeeBird
12x Champ Starfire
Champ RoadRunner (roller)
GStar Katana
Champ Destroyer

Bda
 
I carry up to 14 in my Fade Crunch Box bag. I usually throw each disc at least once. Some will be used a lot while some will be used as few as one time per round.
 
It really all boils down to wind. If there is ZERO wind, I could probably just use 3 discs. (driver, mid, putter) But throw in a 10mph+ head or tail wind and I'm pulling out fairway drivers, utility discs, etc. I usually carry 18 discs, but now days I'm bagging a few more because I've been burned with "out of no where" winds and not having a disc to answer the wind.
 
After losing two discs over the last two weeks, I'm down to 10 + putter in my Legacy setup, but throw all of them usually over two rounds.
 
I carry 10 in a Fade Crunch bag and use 6 or 7 for most rounds.
 
Carry 6, usually throw 4-5. Depends on the course though, as has been mentioned.
 
Almost always 7:

Clutch - putting
Cobra - control rollers
Buzzz - workhorse
Drone - super OS goodness
Crave - workhorse 2.0
Banshee - an old friend both BH and OH
Cannon - maxD


Shorter courses I usually drop the Banshee and Cannon..hell sometimes I don't even throw the Buzzz either. Could absolutely get by with just a Clutch/Crave/Drone.

EDIT: voted 3-6
 
Voted 7-9. I carry 9 in an old innova bag that I use for most rounds. I have a tournament bag but I only break that out a couple times a month lately.

Workhorse putter: atom
os putter: scale
us mid: Comet
Workhorse mid: buzzz
Fairways: patriot, teebird, xxx
distance: amp, wraith
 
I usually throw anywhere from 8-12 discs on an average round, but it depends on which course I am playing. I throw ambidextrous, so I use a lot of the same discs for both arms instead of using an understable disc or a beat up mold I already carry.

I voted 10-12.
 
On my normal daily course that I know like the back of my hand I use
-Roc
-Voodoo
-King VIP Air
-Katana
-Beast
-Destroyer
-Boss
-Banshee

8 total
 
I carry 15, which includes backups, and usually throw(depending on course/conditions)- around 7 of them.
 
I carry 22-25 discs and I will typically use 90% of my bag. So, some days I just didn't use a certain disc, etc. But if you put it all together in a month. I will have used every disc several times.
Some more than other of course. I use my Valkyrie and M2 a good amount, same with my Pa4 Pa3.
Now that I picked up a teebird3 I will be using that a lot I'm sure.
But yeah, I'd say on a day where I play 2 courses (or two times through a course) I will use most of my bag. so 16-20 discs

But I never want to be out on the course and NOT have that one disc....you know which disc I'm talking about.........THAT one....
