Other than discs what are the things that you like to have in your bag? Are certain things season dependent? What is always in there?
 
Always there:
Towels, Advil, Band-Aids, Bottle Opener, Pen, Golf Pencils, Sharpies, Minis, PDGA Rulebook, Sunglasses pouch

Summer:
Sunscreen, Bug Spray, After-Bite, Birdie Bag

Fall/Winter:
UV Flashlight and spare battery, Hand warmers

Maybe I'll throw the Golden Retriever in there if there's a lot of water on the course. But most times I don't bother carrying it.
 
I try to keep it minimal.

Keys
Phone
Pencils
Safety supplies
Extra mini

I don't want to carry around a ton of stuff nor do I want to be pawing through my bag to find something. I prefer minimalist, light packs and load outs while hiking or playing.
 
towel
Sharpie
pen and small pad of paper
golden retriever
small 3" X 4" ziplock bag with aspirin, band-aids, antiseptic, etc.
fingernail clippers and tweezers are also in my ziplock bag
hand sanitizer wipes
small tube of sunscreen

I feel similar, but there are so many instances where I wish I had certain things. guess I'll just load everything up and take out what I don't use.

Different strokes for different folks. Some bring the kitchen sink and there's nothing wrong with that, I just don't like clutter or unnecessary weight.

All times
Pocketknife
Mints
Towel
8x25 Monocular

Always a golf ball or two to get discs down from stuck high spots as I ruined a cheap water bottle trying to get a disc down once, a bunch of larger jar lids from work made into disc markers for those who need one as well as a few other actual mini markers, a towel or two is always clipped to my bag, and I have a multi tool for fixing my bag that I have proven the use for on fixing the bag. Oh I also have a piece of sandpaper for discs if they get rough spots from hitting something. I do have some local scorecards as well as generic with some home made for travel.
