PositiveLight,
The police supposedly wrote down what she took, but did not take a thorough account, nor investigated the individual objects. The amount of items she took varies depending on who is telling the story honestly. Some people say she only took a few sentimental items (accounted above by sgrump) and others (RDI's usually) say she took whole trash-bags full of things out. She definitely took far more than she should have been allowed.
The golf bag is one of those "myths" that persist in this case. It does not seem that it was taken out of the house by Pam. This does not mean it had nothing in it though, and unfortunately the cops never checked.
"Everett kept only a general inventory of what was removed, and even that abbreviated listing was astonishing. Stuffed animals, tiaras, three dresses for JonBenet, pageant photo portfolios, toys and clothes for Burke, John Ramsey's Daytime, the desk Bible, and clothing. For Patsy, there were black pants, dress suits, boots, and the contents of the curio cabinet. Bills, credit cards, a black cashmere trench coat, jewelry that included her grandmother's ring and an emerald necklace, bathrobes, a cell phone, personal papers, bank records, Christmas stockings, her Nordstrom's credit card, and even their passports. The patrol car was loaded with zipped bags, boxes, sacks, and luggage, the true contents unknown."
