I carry at least 1 shield, as many empty bottles and fairies as I can find, a heart medal, and, I am leaving an empty space that I am saving for a life medal.
Also, you can get many Goddess Plumes from the moonlight merchant on Skyloft.
I think ideally I'd have 5 bottles with fairies, a shield, a quiver, and a bomb bag. Right now though I have 3 bottles, the goddess shield, a life medal, a heart medal (I'm on hero mode), a treasure medal, and a potion medal (this one is just in there because I haven't gone to the item check yet).

- Hylian Shield
- Large quiver
- Both life medals
- Potion medal (or treasure medal when I need it)
- 3 bottles with whatever potions I feel like having
I carried the shield, quiver, satchel, bag and four bottles for fairies/potions. For the final boss, I was expecting it to be hard (which it was) but I went too easy on myself and replaced my quiver, bag and satchel with the two life medals and potion medal. I had two heart potion++, a guardian potion and a guardian potion+. I went too easy on myself with all the potions, it was barely challenging because of it
I almost never had any upgraded bags, because taking up a whole space, just for 10 arrows or something like that, seems pointless. I usually carry plenty of medals, and one potion and a shield.
I typically carry 1 of each extra ammo pouch, a shield, 3 bottles (fairy, revitalising potion, and a misc.) 1 empty slot just in case (fourth bottle when fighting demise).
