It's weird how much importance I placed on including a firebird like disc in my own list. It was the first thing I added after a putter.
I play three/four disc rounds all the time, I just like the simplicity of carrying them in my hand and going off to play. My personal best score on one of my home wooded courses was played this way and the funny thing is; after initially wishing I had X or Y disc, I just figure out how to make what I have work, and that has opened my eyes to lots of possibilities I once never thought of.
Less discs means less decisions and better execution, at least for me.
I take a minimalist bag when I travel for work, and make sure to stop at the best course in the area.

I've been thinking about this a lot recently, and I'm interested in hearing other ideas.
Creating a minimalist bag seems to require making sacrifices or prioritizing certain types of discs over others. Obviously, this has a lot to do with throwing style/skill level/personal preference, but I'm curious to hear how others approach this task.
So, how would you build a bag of 3-6 discs that could be used on any course and still give you a chance to throw close to your best? I'd like to hear what types of discs and specific flights are essential and what you would eliminate. For example, is it important to have a laser straight mid but okay to completely drop high speed drivers?
***I know an ultra-minimalist bag would be one or two discs but that's a different topic
Bonus question: Is it worth putting with a premium plastic putter that can double as a thrower?
My real bag:
1. Valkyrie
2. Thunderbird
3. TL3
4. Teebird3
5. Panther
6. Jokeri
7. Colt
8. Soft Harp
9. Firebird for wind and hard fades
All those high speed drivers fail for me. I just can't keep them controlled.
If I had to, I could take out the Thunderbird and Valkyrie, without even thinking about it. Yes, they are longer than the T3s, but not enough to worry about it.
