**DISCLAIMER** Much of this thread will be me discussing what is in my bag. That being said, please bear in mind that I have done a lot of reading here, elsewhere and watched lots of youtube videos. I have 2 things that if not for this disclaimer, some troll is likely to cry or bitch about.
1.) I carry to wide of a variety of discs, too much of a variety. I know I should only be carrying 1 or 2 flavors of drivers and the same for putters, and mids. I really dont care. To me disc golf is about fun. I am terrible, I strive to get better, but, I know the variety of discs I am throwing is'nt what is making me suck, I make me suck, but hey, I have fun. Maybe one day I will find that disc I love? Then I will buy a whole bag full of them
2.) There could quite well be an existing "Post your bag and pics here" thread. I work in IT, I get it. I searched briefly for stings similar to what I listed above and did not find anything 100% on topic. So if you want to kick me in the nuts for posting the same thread twice, thats your prerogative. **/DISCLAIMER**
Ok, on with the meat and potatoes then shall we?
After taking the last 2 years off due to work and family obligations, I am back. Played every day for the last 2 weeks after not playing for a year. New found employment and a new found love of the game drove me to get new equipment. Just got 4 new discs today (Star Cro, Star Valk, Champ Banshee, and Champ Teebird). I also got a new bag and straps, I will discuss below.
Bag is a Fade Tourney bag.... Holds all 22 of my discs nicely, big upgrade from my "Walgreens Super Value Bag" (Search forums) I had before. Having straps is a huge plus... see my rig of awesomeness below:
Like I said before, The bag is a Fade Tourney Dude! Camo bag.
Straps are Lat 64 quad straps.
Towel by Discraft.
Overall the bag is awesome, I love the way it holds the discs upright regardless of what is next to them. I cant drink right now, but, the thermo pockets held my giant Arizona Ice Teas nicely. By the back 9, my second can was almost as cold as I bought it. I did learn a valuable lesson though, dont bend over to pick up a disc with an open container in your hand unless you want a wet, sticky back (keep your perverted thoughts to yourself). The putter pockets are super nice, one of the things I hated about the super value bag. I like always knowing where it is. The biggest plus to upgrading the bag was the straps, the Lat 64 straps were super comfy, and put no strain on my back.
And then there is Jack. Jack is my 1 year old basset/dashound mix. Up until I started playing again a couple weeks ago, he had never been to the course before. I swear I am gonna kick that dog upside down. See Jacks peanut brain having self below
Jack overall is a good dog, I can keep him off leash at all times, he always comes when he is called, and does not distract other golfers. Me on the other hand, that is a different story. I picked up a game with a couple of strangers, he could care less everytime they teed off, but when I step on the box, he likes to get under my feet everytime I drive. I keep tripping over him, he keeps getting hurt, poor bastard never learns.
So, on hole 17 at Lake Lewisville park today, it had a drainage ditch that was flooded from the recent storms. By flooded, I mean nutsack (I did not get the TM from the bag maker to use that) high water. I of course, being the lousy player that I am, shank my drive and it ends up just on the edge of the water. Jack, being the great disc dog that he is, runs right up to it. He normally never tries to grab a disc. He runs at the discs full speed and hits the breaks. Dog skids through the grass, slides into the water, dunks himself completely underwater and pushes my brand new banshee, that I had not even labeled yet into the water. This all came after a bogey on 16, likely the easiest bird on the course. On top of everything else, he stayed dry until before then, so on top of me having to strip my shoes and tread nutsack deep water to get my disc back, I had to ride 20 mins home with a wet dog in the cab of my truck. I never finshed 18 due to wet socks.
I did find another disc while looking for mine. I called the number twice, but no answer, left a voicemail. Red 2010 Amature Championship Katana Champ Plastic. Unless your name is Andrew and you can give me the rest of your 214 number, dont bug me about it, I will give it to my kid if he does'nt call.
Guess what? I still had fun!
Does that mean I am re-addicted to DG?
Anyway....
Below is one more pic of my bag, and plastic out of it, I will list out my discs for someone to tell me that I should not carry so many molds
Discs Left to right
Top: DX Hydra, Star Aviar, Proton Anode
Next Row: Sirus Orion LS, Star Valkyrie, Star Mako, Star Cro, Z Buzz, Champ Boss
Next Row: LS Polaris, Orion LS, Z Avenger, Star Xcaliber, Champ Firebird, ESP Surge
Bottom Row:
Pro Line Beast, Champ Banshee (fuggin dog), Star Leopard, Champ Monarch, Z Avenger SS, Star Katana.
Other goodies in bag, Portable speaker, Epi pen, Left handed tobacco, Right handed cigs, lights, batteries, tape, sharpie, pencil, paper.
Hope you enjoyed my senseless post.
Stigg.
