Other things you bring besides discs

[HardstyleBeast]

I know water and snacks are kinda obvious but what other things have you noticed are good to take along?

A towel

A towel

Make that 2-3 towels. I also try to carry a few bandaids and a small tube of antibiotic ointment, you'll find your buddies will appreciate real-time first aid.

Dude, you're giving away your competitive advantage!
• water
• towels (even when it's dry, to wipe off sand/dust)
• Golden Retriever
• trail mix if it's a long day away from home

I carry a ziplock bag with a rule book, $10-15 in fives and singles, a pen, a sharpie, a couple laminated re-useable scorecards, and a 2-meter measuring tape. Really handy if you tend to play a lot of competitive rounds, whether it's tournaments, leagues, or just making friendly bets with friends.

Here is my secret to tourney comfort: extra pair of socks. Whether it is wet or dry, a fresh pair of socks can really make a difference for that slow play second round.

That's a good call. Not to mention, having clean socks available makes it much easier to take off your shoes and let your feet breath a bit during lunch.

Beer.. usually on just casual rounds though.

Very good call. Comfort is important in competitive play. I always bring extra socks and an extra shirt for spring and summer tourney rounds... leave 'em in the car. Sometimes even an extra pair of shoes.

Chalk bag

 

[JC17393]

If we're talking what's in the car, then yeah, at least one full change of clothes, multiple pairs of socks and two extra pairs of shoes. The option to change socks/shoes between rounds is always good, but having a clean dry pair of socks and shoes to put on for the drive home is an absolute necessity.

In the bag: a gallon ziplock with a couple of extra towels, pair of socks, band-aids, and a neat tip for you: alcohol-based wet wipes (in the little packets) instantly soothe stinging nettles. :thmbup:

 

[Stardoggy]

In the bag: ibuprofen (I'm 38, after all), a 5 hour energy, extra socks, gloves, hat, sharpies, 3-4 pencils, reusable scorecard, waterproof bluetooth speaker, 2 drinks, possibly a snack.

 

[flip_hyzer]

I carry a wooden dowel with 10 meters of twine wrapped around it to quickly measure CTP's and settle in/out of the circle arguments. Saves some time, is smaller and lighter than a measuring tape. I've thrown in over a branch to shake discs out of trees before too.

Hand warmers

 

[Jensonian]

I keep a little Tupperware container in my bag with a pocketknife, pencil sharpener:thmbup: ,band aids, hand sanitizer (for tree sap), lights/mini glowsticks, sharpie marker, extra pencil, and extra string for my retreiver. In my bag I also have an extra towel in a Ziploc, a birdie bag, and a flashlight called a "Larry Light" which is small but extremely bright for shining up my glow in the dark duct tape or searching for discs when a round goes too far in to the evening.

 

[pigpen]

Small rosin bag, homemade beef jerky, beer and toilet paper.

A towel

Always. Sometimes a wet and dry one for extra cleaning.

That's all I ever use. Water, discs, towel. Good to go.

You must have a really big bag.
