When you play 18 holes of golf, going by the RULES how many golf

I don't understand what the rules have to do with anything. You can have 0 in your bag or a thousand. So I'm not answering because I don't understand what you're asking.

Next time you may want to consider adding a poll to a forum question like this... and if you could shorten the sig file, I think folks would appreciate not having to scroll past it.

From the USGA Rule Book- no rule on how many balls you can carry. Tin Cup is a movie.

5-1/5 Whether Player May Borrow Balls from Another Player


Q. During a stipulated round, a player runs out of balls. May he borrow one or more balls from another player?

A. Yes. Rule 4-4a prohibits a player from borrowing a club from another player playing on the course but the Rules do not prevent a player from borrowing other items of equipment (balls, towels, gloves, tees, etc.) from another player or an outside agency.
If the “One Ball” Condition in Appendix I is in effect, the player would need to obtain the same brand and type of ball as required by that condition.

the correct number of balls you should have in your bag is " ENOUGH "

there was a story about Tiger and Steve(his caddy). During the US Open at Pebble Tiger hit driver off the 18th tee, pulling it left into the ocean. Steve give him another ball and asked "you're sure you don't want to hit the 2i?" Tiger said "yes" and proceeded to pipe it down the fairway.
After the round was over Steve admited, that it was his LAST ball in the bag... Supposely TW was practicing putting in his hotel room night before and Steve forgot to load them back into the bag....
Can you say "I was SOOOOO close from losing the best gig in the world" ?

    • 39-35 today for a +2 (74) on a 72.6/129. Struggled over the first few holes as I bogeyed five straight to start. Wasn't even striking the ball bad - just couldn't hit a green and didn't hit good chips + one penalty. Then I went -3 over the next 6 to save the round and then parred the last 7. Golf is fun.
    • The Holdovers. Birdie. I’m a big Paul Giamatti fan and felt this was an exceptional performance. The film has a great blend of comedy and heart felt drama. 
    • I rewatched this last night on HBO Max, and I re-affirm this. I loved Dune Par 1. It finally brought Dune to the big screen in the best way possible. Dune Part 2 is so much better, which is impressive. I like the direction they went with the characters in the story compared to the books. It was brought up to date in a good way. Yea, I am glad to see that they are working on Dune Part 3. 
    • I love Louisville Golf's Niblicks, which they made for me decades ago and I began using again, though I now replaced the shafts for whippier ones (see my recent post). Unlike your photo, mine had steel bottoms. Forget about eBay, Louisville still makes them. They work much better for me than the modern metal woods.
    • Went to the range today at Scottish Highlands in Salem NH. Worked on getting my chest turning away and then through the ball. Worked out well as shots had a little more distance and more consistent flights. Gained 20 yards with the few drivers I hit. They have a pretty good short game practice area so I spent a good half hour hitting chips and pitches.  After the range I went to the gym for a back workout. Went well and I'm excited to move forward with this new workout program.
