Hello Discmaniacs,

i am searching for a small backpack for short trips that is capable of holding 8 - 10 discs. I hate having only that much discs in a normal disc golf backpack because they are all falling around in there. Additionally a little space for a towel and a mini would be nice. Maybe some place for a water bottle. Is there something like that on the market?

    You could try using a rectangular cooler. A lot of people I know who only carry a few discs will use them. They usually hold a few discs, a couple drinks, and maybe a couple other items. Some companies make minimalist bags, too. I think Upper Park has a few and there is a company that makes a bag called a NutSac.

    Infinite Discs, Dynamic, and some of the other big companies also offer smaller casual round sized bags depending on the style you’re looking for. A lot of them are very affordable.

      Thanks, the important part for me is that it is a basckpack. I bike a lot when playing and a backpack is the best option for that. Upper Park has the Shift but i can’t get it in my country easily :(

    Look at fishing backpacks. Mine holds 2 large containers. Each is about 2 inches thick. So I’d say it could hold a stack 6 inches high. It has a water bottle holder. I got it off Amazon.

    I ended up getting a Lat64 Swift because I didn’t find this on the market and this was the smallest I could reasonably find, I just pack the empty space with towels and stuff to keep them from moving around.

    If I wanted to go slim but still a backpack, I have a little Konami Sports Club backpack that barely fits discs snuggly, so you may just see what backpacks you can find that open with a top flap and just try fitting a disc in it to see if it works. I’d love to find an actual disc golf backpack the size of my Konami bag. Photo of the bag.
