                   Minimal Bag Considerations



Here's mainly a copy of a post I made in the DGCR forum:

     There's a 18-hole course (rather open but  with  height
     differences) I've played three times now.

     First time:
     - Bag with 2 discs: D P3, DX Eagle
     - Both discs in constant use, of course
     - Score: +7

     Second time:
     - Bag with 5 discs (+ 3 backups): D P3, ESP Zone, DX TB,
             ES TB, Ch TB
     - Two identical backup putters only for convenience
     - Ch TB only for one shot, which was a bad one
     - Score: E

     Third time:
     - Bag with 8 discs (+ 3 backups): D P3, ESP Zone, DX EG,
             Star EG, Ch EG, Lucid Felon, Star Valk, DX Leo
     - Two identical backup putters only for convenience
     - Ch EG, Felon, Valk and Leo only used for one shot each
     - Score: +10


     Although I played the course blind, when I  went  there
     the  first  time  and  had a driver, which I had thrown
     only little before, I scored quite well.

     There's exactly one hole where a disc like the  DX  Leo
     provided  slightly  better results. It changes just one
     stroke, if at all, if I carry it.

     Best result would come from playing with 4 discs (D P3,
     ESP  Zone,  DX  TB, ES TB) ... plus an identical backup
     putters for convenience.

     Dropping the Zone, hence playing with only three  discs
     (D  P3,  DX TB, ES TB), would cost me not more than one
     stroke.


     On another 18-hole course,  with  more  different  hole
     shapes, the situation changes only in the way that hav-
     ing a Felon might gain one stroke.
