We had a season exit interview and a document that we completed where we listed our thoughts on the season and gave continuous improvement suggestions, etc. I used that form to air my feelings and to announce my resignation. If you don’t feel like the HC is receptive, send a copy of your thoughts to the AD as well. Good luck

Congratulations. Ringing that bell is pretty emotional

You are entitled to your opinion, which is exactly what Charlie Kirk did at all of his events. You are sadly mistaken if you believe he appealed to a small sliver of America. He was creating a huge movement in young people to support family and faith. You may think he was uninteresting, which is again your opinion , but he preached common sense. He debated folks in a friendly, rational manner. He was dangerous to the far left because he was a champion for everything they despise - family, faith, patriotism and common sense.

Charlie Kirk was assassinated because he was reaching out to young people and causing a movement of family and faith with young voters. He was taken out because he was a threat. He is a huge part of the reason Trump is back in the White House and his movement and message was only getting stronger.

Been on the same cocktail as you since January 2024. Had a follow up with my oncologist this week and based on my blood work (PSA 0.01) we are going to wind that treatment down a tad early and stop when my prescription runs out in late November or early December. I’ve never had too much trouble other than hot flashes and those have really tailed off. Can’t express how excited I am to end the ADT. It’s been a grind. Best of luck to you on your journey. God bless.

Abide by local course rules. Keep your cart away from the green Replace divots and repair ball marks on the green. Have fun

Beat me to it. Maxfli Tour/Tour X are really good golf balls at a much more reasonable price point.

Just got a pair of Foot Joy Hyper Flex. Amazing

Go take a lesson.

Yep. Work constraints make it hard to play a lot, but I love the game and really enjoy putting in the work

I decided at the end of last year that I wanted to overhaul my swing and try to get better. Was shooting anywhere between 80-100. Zero consistency. Got a swing evaluation, lesson plan and spent this winter hitting inside. Practice 2x per week 1-2 hours at a time. Also joined a simulator league with some buddies to get through the winter. It’s been really frustrating and satisfying at the same time. I’ve played a couple times outside and I am struggling - trying to get used to a completely new swing. I actually enjoy the range and practice sessions. Now that the weather is getting better I can work on short game and putting. The key is to practice with a purpose. Just going to the range and firing through a bucket with your driver is not work. Cheers and go low!

I’ve been on Aberaterone for 25 months and Also take a Lupron injection every three months. 56 years old. Diagnosed in December of 2023. PSA 9.86 Gleason 9 (4+5). Surgery was not an option. Went through 25 rounds of radiation, followed up by brachytherapy procedure. I worked through all of it. Suffered some minor fatigue, weight loss. My only side effect from the ADT has been some mild heat flashes. Otherwise, no real issues. Current PSA is 0.02. Good luck on your journey. God bless!

Soda with a splash of cranberry or something like that??

Much appreciated thinking! I found this sub to be extremely helpful during my lowest points. Very good people here sharing an awful problem. Be well and God bless!

Probably would help. I honestly am just so used to them that I continue along. Any chance for ice cream is great. I should use it as an excuse 😂

Usually just keep a handkerchief in my pocket if they get bad. That’s about it. They come and go pretty quick. No mental issues besides dealing with a nonexistent sex life for the most part. That is the only frustrating aspect of this

My PSA was 9.86 when diagnosed. I was not a candidate for surgery because my cancer was too close to my rectum and my team feared that surgery may damage the rectum. I had 25 rounds of radiation followed by a brachytherapy procedure. Right now, I am near the end of my first year of a two year ADT treatment plan. Two years of Aberiterone and Lupron injections every three months. Just had my fifth injection yesterday. The only noticeable side effect I experience is hot flashes. I still get them regularly. Otherwise, I feel great for a dude with zero testosterone in his body 😎

Maxfli Tour is a great choice if you want a high end ball for middle of the road pricing. I believe Dick’s Sporting Goods owns the brand. I have gotten the bulk 4 dz for a little over $100. Thankfully for OP, they come in yellow as well.

My wife passed away on 2/28. The quiet part didn’t start until after her visitation and wake. Leading into the funeral (it was about a month later) life was moving extremely fast. Handling financial matters, making arrangements, dealing with two adult kids that lost their mom, dealing with in laws that lost their only daughter and juggling work. Barely had time to personally grieve. Lots of people reaching out, stopping by with food. After the funeral, everything stopped. People moved on with their lives and we were left picking up the pieces. The silence was deafening. It still is. I’m 8 months into this new life and it’s still an out of body experience. Every day is a search for peace for my broken soul. I would never wish this on my worst enemy. My advice is to continue to force yourself to move forward with your life. It’s way too easy to bury yourself in a deep, dark hole of depression. Fight that urge and continue forward. God speed.
