I'd been rubbing around on the idea of making a ball bag for a bit now, so I did. It's not very big, my balls aren't large, not small either, .40 caliber, so kind of middle size. Since I have smaller balls I made a smaller bag, I'm guessing it'll hold 150 or so. It doesn't follow any period, so it's only PC for now. It suits me and that's all that matters.

I did some shooting today and used the little bag. I put 100 balls in it and think it'll hold another 100, or maybe more. With the flat bottom it stands up nice on the bench and is flexible enough to make getting balls out easy.

Excellent job on the design and the stitching.

The dimensions you used are great and looks great too.
 
I like a small ball bag for small balls. I have one I got from somewhere I uses in my .45 pouch. In my Trade Gun bag I just throw the .61 balls in the bottom and go, but just can’t seem to do that with the smaller ball and prefer a little bag-in-the-bag.
 
Great job on that drawstring bag. I made a drawstring bag - much smaller than yours - out of some deer hide I had. I like that flat bottom and the fact that it can stand open on the bench. Very clever.
