What do you need in your bag?

When I went back to carrying my clubs I had to make sure I kept my bag as light as possible, 8 extra golf balls, couple gloves range finder and water. Obviously clubs as well but have found I could drop a couple of them without it causing an issue
 
Bag was getting a bit heavy so I had a look inside and apart from the stuff I did need such as clubs and waterproofs I am not sure that I needed in the quantities that I had.
54 Golf balls
9 Gloves
7 Reading glasses
7 Old score cards
13 Pencils
6 Pitchmark repairers
8 Defunct range tokens (we are now on a card system)
4 Face masks
Old edition rules of golf
4 Ball markers
Far too many tees
Oh and £7.54 in coins

My bags a bit lighter now, though I'm trying to think out the optimum number of balls.

Your Bag sounds like a right hoarders bag!

My bag has;
  • Clubs
  • 12 Balls
  • 60+ Tees
  • Pouch with Divot Tool, Ball Marker, Hand Sanitiser, 3in1 Club Brush, Sharpie.
  • Glove
  • Scorecard holder and pencil
  • Rangefinder
  • Towel
 
15 balls and 6 gloves is as bad as my gets: Except

2 hankies
2 x rules of golf
packet of glucose tablets - best before 23rd May 2020 (right at the bottom of the large pocket and nowhere near where I'd keep food

Other than that, pretty good
 
I tend to have:
6-8 golf balls
Couple of handfulls of tees
Pitchmark repairer / ball-marker tool
Couple of Sharpies, a biro, couple of pencils
Adjustment tool for woods/driver
Waterproof jacket & gilet
Glove, old glove in case I've misplaced the primary glove, and raingrip glove
Little handwash spray
Clubs obvs

I think that's it, might've forgotten something.
Edit: towel and groove-brush hanging on the outside too..and umbrella.
 
AAAGH
They're breeding
I haven't done a recount but have got a new lighter bag to take away on a trip to Ireland next week.
Emptied old bag and I have around 40 balls and 6 pairs of glasses along with other assorted detrius.

4 balls, 6 tees, 1 glove, 2 blank cards, 1 pitch repairer, 2 ball markers, 2 pencils, 1 sharpie, waterproofs if rain likely, no rule book.

Oh and bow and arrows of course !!!
 
Pretty much the same as everyone else except the balls. I usually start with about six but end with, depending on how slow the round is, well my record is finding 53. I only found 35 yesterday without really trying.

I wish I found 35 balls on a round!! That would be amazing (apart from the bag getting heavier and heavier!)

You forgot to include your speedos, for when you strip down to collect balls from the lake ;)
