Spilling beer while I'm carrying it in my bag makes me :pullhair: and :explode:. So I got one of those little bottle topper things. :jumpspin:
Now my beer mostly only escapes the bottle when I :chug:.

Well said. I've seen tantrums on the course that would make a two year old proud.

[Ol' Bob]

I'm a non-professional durngiver. I don't get paid to give a durn, and I ain't going pro any time soon, durn-it! http://yosemite-sam.net/Sam/Pins-Buttons/Sam-Button-Stubborn_small.jpg

[ptld2001]

You all have about covered it (and more). However, for summer, I also carry a spray bottle of picaridin insect repellent. I've gotten chewed up something awful at Pier before I did. Don't remember if anyone's said sunglasses.

good idea on the bug dope! ...and no shades in my bag 'cause they get broke...

I've tried all the "friendlier" stuff and I always end back up with the good ol' fashioned DEET. Nothing is worse than spraying yourself down with something and STILL getting eaten alive. I even take up precious beer room for my can of spray. It's almost time to put it back in the bag.

[Joshua Olmsted]

In my bag, other than my disc I have:

Two micro fibre towells.
A sharpie
One glass mini from my last Steilacoom event.


And that's it, I'm a bit of a minimaslit, some folks on this forum can vouch to the power of what I can forget to bring to tournaments.

... seriously, dude... it's freakin' me out just to think about having such a minimalist bag... however, your friends probably don't laugh at you and call you a sherpa when you heft your bag onto your back...

I try to have a Sharpie in the bag but they always disapear.

Is there a story behind this? I was playing hole 18 at Horning's canyon course a month or two ago, and picked up my drive only to find a Lego Santa Claus keychain right underneath.

I picked up my disc and my next throw was an absolute beauty. The keychain has been hanging from my bag as a lucky charm ever since.

If you played a round of golf with Cindy (LegoRules) around Christmas time, there's a pretty good chance you got a Lego Clause for your bag.

My hubby got a couple keychains from Cindy for Christmas. :)

And the nice thing about the Skin so Soft sunscreen is that it also has insect repellent in it. And it seems to do a good job of keeping the bugs away. :)

[emmarose]

Like you? :wink2:

hahaha! yup!

... but they're not laughing when i've got an extra beer or snack or whatever they neglected bring with them in their nonsherpaish bag... :nahnah:

It's definitely time. We were out at Pier yesterday, and although we didn't get bitten, other people did. There were a ton on hole 15.

I haven't had any problems with the Picaridin, even in Alaska, and I like it because it's plastic friendly. Doesn't seem like a great idea to use a plastic-solvent spray when throwing plastic discs. That would be a terrible way to lose a favorite disc!

[emmarose]

Like you I am on my way to Sherpiadom (is that even a word:chinscratch:)

good for you! i love to have all my stuff and my things and just know that i am completely prepared for whatever the dg gods may toss my way... i recently added the little tripod stool to my arsenal, and while i don't use it on certain courses because of uneven terrain (meadow ridge) or if it's just a quickie round with one or two other people, i love it on flat courses or when i play in a foursome or greater... also, it was clutch down at dexter with all the mucky muck on saturday... not that it saved me from falling on my ass and getting myself all muckied up, but my bag stayed nice and clean!

p.s. it's a word if you say it (or write it)!

I haven't had a problem with the solvent issue. I was more worried about how it might affect synthetic clothing but haven't had an issue there either. I'm definitely not planning on spraying it directly on my discs though.

What's that you're keyboarding?

[chris7graham]

Lmao all i got is sharpie for all the aces i get

[emmarose]

Lmao all i got is sharpie for all the aces i get

... i'm so sad for your empty bag and your lonesome sharpie... maybe you should at least get a back up sharpie in case it runs dry from all your aces, or gets lost... or runs away because it has no friends.

I had nothing to add here until my bag rolled over in the back of my car recently and I discovered the half-yard of sand that accumulated in there over the winter...

The disc golf accessories all say (after clicking their heels together three times in their Keen Milos. "Take me home Anny Em. Take me home!"
