Distance drivers are out 'til I have fairways going well:

Star Teebird
Z Glo Stalker (I call it a fairway because I can get the Teebird out further)
Star Leopard

ProLine Aftershock
Gold Fuse
ProLine Squall

Glow Wizard
 
Max distance (400+)

2 174g ESP Force (head wind distance)
1 174g Z force (head wind distance)

2 174g ESP Nuke (Wide open D)
1 174g St Orc (tweener distance, throwing uphill)
1 174g St Sidewinder (distance roller)

Its alot of discs but I dont have issues packing these around. I know there is alot of over lap but I throw lefty and righty and each disc does something a little different for me
 
No I have a backpack that I carry (can fit 16 in the bottom, 16 in the top, 3 in each side panel and 2 in the putter pocket). I also have a cart that I use on flat courses thats actually a converted dolly and I could carry 60 on it but even for me thats excessive.

Putters:
P-Line P1 Maniac (Main putter and for straight <200' approaches)
ESP Focus

Midrange:
P-Line MD2 (Straight and anhyzers <300')

Drivers:
Champion TeeBird
S-Line TD (Definitely going to get more of these)
2x S-Line PD (Somehow the other one is a bit understable while the other one somewhat overstable)

Should also be in:
Champion Monster (My most trusted disc which went too low, cut down a young birch and dove in a pond)

I've also been carrying around a couple of Katanas for easy distance but lost my trust in them. Maybe I'll replace them with DD2 or maybe destroyers or something once I gain a bit more range.

I tend to get in trouble when the wind starts blowing a bit harder. Would love to find some bit overstable mid range that I could trust in the wind (might also get Drone just for the sake of having one)

Earlier the discs I could really trust in the wind were Monster and VP (I want it back too!), unfortunately I've thrown both of em in water without being able to recover them. I still have hope for the Monster since that pond is nearby and it's just the matter of seeing the trouble of fishing it up.
 
Varsi: You're not using the S-CD anymore? Give it to me then. =)

The P-DD2 will probably be pretty good for you if you beat it in a bit. It turns a tad more (perhaps, might have been my imagination) than a Pro Destroyer, and when new fades about the same. Not as easy as the Pro Katana, but much more reliable.
 
Red discs get used primarily. Blue for rare specialty shots, as backups, or for "WTF not, I have plenty of room in the bag."

Putters:
KC Aviar: upshots
JK Aviar: Main putter

Lat64 Pure: windy-day putting/upshots
2x DX Aviars : Practice putters


Mids:
Star Sanny Roc beat: Straight approches
Star Sanny Roc new: Approaches that need to hold a hyzer line (more as a backup though).
GL Fuse: Anny approches
Z Comet: WTF not?/field work

Fairway:
Champ T-bird: Hyzer/straight approaches, mid-distance hyzer/straight drives
Opto River: Anny approaches, mid-distance anny drives

DX T-bird: backup
S-CD: Quickly becoming my go-to driver. I love this disc for everything. If it ever comes time to minimalize my bag, this one will take over most everything.

Distance:
2x Pro Wraith: Primary distance + its backup
Champ Valk: Secondary distance/flip shots
Star XCal: If its gotta hyzer fast and hard.
Pro Katana: Field work and Empty-Your-Bag holes
Pro StarFire: Auditioning to replace my wraiths
Champ Orc: Auditioning for big-hyzer disc
DX Orc: No clue why I carry this POS. Field work?
Surge SS: I love the looooong turn this disc will do, but only a couple holes really call for it and its too squirrelly, so I only throw it when i'm 'on' that day.



I also have a random assortment of others discs that come along to fill the bag, but really only get used for field work.
 
my full bag is
glow aviar for drives
kc pro aviar for putting
super roc and a beat dx roc for all mid duties
really beat dx teebird for huge turnover shots
11x teebird for big hyzers spikes
star leopard as main fairway driver
pro valk for max distance when no wind.

and thats pretty much it.

regularly i would just carry

dx roc
kc pro aviar
star leopard
and maybe a 11x teebird

TLs - 3: glow champ, star, CE (seasoned/stable/flippy) go to disc, straight, turnovers, threading the needle
Teebird - 1: 11x or Glow Champ headwind duties or more overstable TL
PD - 1: FR S longer TL/Teebirds - great for discing down

I usually carry 14 or 15 discs, here's whats in there now:

2 175 pro d focus putters: yellow & black
2 z buzzz midranges: addictive discs
1 178 Z drone midrange: carves many lines
2 XL fairway drivers: short accurate drives
2 Z Predators: my favorite drivers
2 PD Discmania drivers: Pro and Champ
1 175 Star Sidewinder: sweet spot hitter
1 Destroyer: not used much anymore
2 Nukes: 1 esp and 1 Z they improve me
 
Set aside the Chimp to test out the Fade Crunch Box, but I'm carrying the same stuff:

3 Pro Destroyers - Complete range of stabilities for max distance
3 DX Eagles - Complete range of stabilities for control drives
1 Champ Firebird - Overhand/forehand/wind/hyzers
2 Rocs - CE (hyzers), DX (straight)
2 GL Fuses - Heavy (straight) and light (understable)
3 S Wizards - Seasoned driver, newer backup, and a putter
 
1x S DD Hysteria (testing stuff)
1x Pro Katana (see above)
1x Star Roadrunner (filling the bag, light tl handles pretty much same things)

2x Ch Teebird (175g stable)
1x Star EagleX (170g testing)
2x Star Tl (170g not so stable)
2x Ch Firebird

1x Gold Fuse or Esp Meteor (dropped my oldest d buzzz, dont really see any difference between these two)
2x Esp Buzzz
1x Z buzzz
1x Flx drone

2x S Magic (putting, backup)
1x M magic (turnover drives)
1x M Wizard (windy, slight hyzer drives)


Superlost with distance drivers and testing everything, maybe I should go back to try Pro destroyers, last time I threw them I really didnt know how to throw..
Ordered a couple of P-DD2's so we'll see, they might be too much of a disc for me though.
 
- M Wizard
- Soft Ion (testing, considering a Medium)
- GL Fuse
- ProLine Aftershock
- Star Leopard
- Z Glo Stalker
- Star Teebird
- Star Roadrunner
- Star Starfire (until my 1st S-PD comes and probably takes its place)

Had a meltdown and lost 5 discs at Pickard last weekend so I had to rebuild the bag.

D Drivers:
171g Pro Wraith - primary distance disc.
169g Pro Katana - if I really need a little extra and accuracy is not all important.
174g Z Surge SS - for a couple specific holes that are long, gradual bends to the right.

Overstable Driver:
175g Star XCaliber - if it absolutely must go left

Fairways:
170g Star Teebird - do I need to comment? Anything from slightly right to hard left from about 300'
174g ESP XL - trying to replace my lost River. Doubt it will stay in after I replace the River at this point.

Mids:
can't remember g KC Pro Roc - Its a Roc. It does everything but anny shots.
180g GL Fuse - Once again, I f*ucking love this disc. If it needs to go straight, gradual right, hard right, or a placement just short of Teebird range on any line.
170ish D Buzz - Why not? Everyone seems to like them. I love my Roc and Fuse but I figured I have to at least give one a tryout.

Putters:
KC Pro Aviar - throwing putter. If I have a short drive, approach, or need to go around a tree with a hyzer.
JK Aviar - all other putting duties.

There are naturally a few misc discs in my bag too (Champ Orc, some worn DX aviars, Star Beast among them) for very specific shots or getting a tryout for a permanent spot.
 
From May 2010:
Eric O said:
3 S Wizards Soft/Med
3 DX Rancho Rocs (occasionally will replace the newest with a Star Rancho where durability is an issue)
1 Champ Gator
2 Star Eagles
1 Z Pred
1 Star Orc
2 Champ Orc
1 1st Run ESP Nuke

I finally got a PD to try out recently and it almost lives up to the ridiculous amount of hype it basks in around here. I've been modifying my bag around them in stages. I did a similar thing with SOLFs for a time after they became available across several types of plastic, but eventually they were overtaken by Orcs. We shall see in time whether or not the PD bag lasts. Here's what it's looking like at the moment (discs in bold are new additions to the bag since my last posting):

3x S Wizard Soft/Med
3x DX Rancho Roc
1x CFR Gator
1x Star Eagle
1x CE Eagle-X
2x P-PD
1x S-PD
1x C-PD
1x Champ Wraith


The CE Eagle is like a new Star Eagle that hit a couple trees, but it stays that way forever. PDs are pretty much self explanatory for the majority of distance driving duties. Nukes are out in favor of Wraith. I went with Z Nukes once they were on the market. Fantastic disc but probably a touch fast for my arm. I can get a Wraith out almost as deep but on a wider variety of lines and without having to try as hard.

There is nothing there for max D in a headwind, but once my larger capacity golf bag arrives I will look in my stack to add a high PLH Wraith, or another mold if that doesn't cut it.

As much as I love Eagles, there is probably some speed overlap with PDs. Right now I'm still finding it useful to carry both but I may end up auditioning Cyclones instead to bridge the gap a little more evenly between Rocs and PDs.
