Who do you get to do the PRP treatment?
My primary physician gave it to me. If yours doesn’t then you should be able to go to an ortho and they can.
Everyone has some good ideas on this, I have also dealt with both tennis and golfers elbow. Here is what I've done:
• Did the steroid shot. It worked for about 3 months and then it came back. Did not want to continue with the steroid shot as over time it will cause more issues with your joints. One and done.
• PT / Dry Needling - Did both of these and saw no relief at all. I will be upfront and say that I did not stop playing golf during this time, my PT knew this as I was upfront about it. Was a waste of time.
• Theraband Flex Bar - I have tried this previously but have not been consistent about it. I will say that everyone i've seen talk about it has seen relief, but they probably were consistent with it. I may need to make this part of my morning routine.
• PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) - I pushed this off as long as I could because I have heard that it's very painful. I went ahead and bit the bullet on it and saw 100% relief for 1-year. During this year I played 100 rounds of golf and had no issues. After the year, I could start to feel it again so I went ahead and did another injection. The 2nd injection worked but I felt like it wore off sooner than the first injection. It's been about a year since the 2nd injection.
• Wolverine Stack (BPC-157/TB-500) peptide - I am currently on this stack and have been for about 6 weeks. I am starting to finally see some relief and am giving myself until the end of January before I make a decision on whether to do a 2nd round or not. I have missed some days in the 6 weeks because of holidays and travel, but have been pretty consistent since the beginning of the year.
Hope this gives you another idea on what you should do next. The one thing that I have not done is taken a break from playing golf. I am still playing weekly, which is probably why it's taking so long for something to work.

Darebee - Fitness Website - Free
Posted by CHiPs25 on 1/12/26 at 8:47 am
Good morning-
I ran across a website that I thought I would send over to this group. The website is Darebee and it's a pretty basic website that gives a lot of what appears to be beginner workouts for free. They also have challenges, exercise of the day, etc that may be good for someone just starting, like myself. Just thought I would pass it along to anyone else that is looking for something small to start with.

Ditch the desk too. I went with a standup desk about 5 years ago and haven’t looked back. After Christmas break (2 weeks) I could feel the tiredness in my legs for the first 2 days back.
re: SIAP … Looking for insights to Stableford League Scoring
Posted by CHiPs25 on 1/7/26 at 4:19 pm to mikedatyger
If they don't have HDCP but you have an idea of how many points they need, then just subtract those points from 36 to get their Squabbit HDCP. For instance, if they need 15 points then you would put them as a 21 HDCP in Squabbit (36-15 = 21).

We use similar scoring, except we have 4 for a birdie and 8 for an eagle. Our club wanted to charge us for the use of golf genius which is why we went with Squabbit. The one advantage to using golf genius is that it'll post the score automatically to GHIN where squabbit will not.
I have never used the golf genius on the backend, is it pretty custom where you can create any game that you want (like squabbit) or is it pretty standard on what it will allow?

Maybe this was mentioned before but why would the commissioner just not use the GHIN system and calculate off that? We play a Friday game and switch the games around every week and when we end up doing the Stableford game, we do 100% HDCP. That way, if a high handicaper gets a par on a hole, then he would get the birdie points. Alternatively, we also play a quota game where you take 36 minus your HDCP and that's the amount of points you have to pull for the week. Seems odd the commissioner wants to do the most basic way, which doesn't make it fair for everyone.
Regarding Squabbit, we use squabbit weekly for our Friday and Saturday games and it's great. For Friday, we use GHIN system to calculate the points and for Saturday our commissioner has kept a book for years' that gives each of us custom points. You can still use squabbit for this, you would just have to manually adjust the HDCP in squabbit to match the points required.
I'm pretty good with Squabbit by now, so if you're looking for something in particular, let me know and I may be able to help you figure it out.

YI, I was injecting 500 mcg, one cycle in the belly and one cycle near the elbow.
Near my elbow is not possible as I have it in both elbows so I have elected to just inject in the belly. I have missed a few days during this cycle, probably around a total of 8, so I am going until the end of January and then will break. Will give it 2 weeks and then start another 8-week cycle.
I will give you my 2 cents but i'm sure someone else has a better answer for you.
For a 10mg vial, you'll want to put in the 2mL of bac water. Then, you will want to inject 10-12 units but this also depends on what syringe you have. The syringes I have are 100 units. Personally, I am doing this once per day rather than 2x per day and am going for about 4-5 weeks.
Ideally, close to the pain is where you would like to inject. You can get a chip clip and pinch the skin and then inject into that pinched skin.
I have been on this since Thanksgiving and TBH I am not feeling too much relief from my Tennis/Golfers elbow.

I also really like how I can put a bunch of games on a round after the fact just to see how certain game setups would have gone.
I just did this today to test a new game that i'm going to do on Friday. We usually do Stableford, but this week I want to do Quota so I wanted to test some scoring methods and adjust HDCPs to ensure the low handicaps wouldn't get pissed at the strokes.

Scoring App - Squabbit
Posted by CHiPs25 on 12/17/25 at 2:12 pm
Wanted to give a shout out to the Squabbit app. I have a Friday golf group that usually has between 10-18 guys every week and we were doing everything after the round by using scorecards. We started using the Squabbit app a few weeks ago and has made everything so much smoother after the round. There are a ton of games that you can play on the app, we typically just do Skins and then a quota game (some days we'll do 2-man best ball or other team game). Everyone can see where they stand during the round and then afterwards, I just divvy up the money and move on.
If you have a regular group of 8+ and you don't have any live scoring, look into Squabbit. It's free as well!

I have a few of these and they work well to hide everything behind the TV. The strap that comes with them seems flimsy but as long as the plastic is mounted into a stud, there should be no problem. Make sure to overthink everything when mounting it though. Make sure you have easy access to the cables that you need and if you need access to insert game CDs, you keep that in consideration as well. I made the mistake of just installing the mount and then willy nilly putting the xbox in it, realized after the fact that I didn't have easy access to everything that I needed and had to move everything.
re: Diamond Baseball Holdings in MiLB…thoughts?
Posted by CHiPs25 on 12/9/25 at 4:46 pm to TexasTiger08
I have a buddy that works for DBH. I've talked to him about this and DBH has absolutely no ownership of the players. The players and the decision to promote/demote them all comes from the MLB teams. DBH ultimately only owns the stadium, tickets, promotions, etc. For the most part, they don't really own the stadiums as a lot of them are on county property so the county that the team is in owns it.

Yea like 777 said, not even close to long enough, I had the same elbow issues and ran it twice a day for a month before it totally cleared up. I still take it 3 times a week for maintenance.
What I read was that you take it for 10 days and then off for 2 weeks to allow the body to not get used to the peptide. Then start again for 10 days and so forth. Based on your experience, you are saying this is not the case and that I should be taking it nonstop until it clears up?
quote:
10 injections? so 10 days? that is not nearly enough time
you need to be taking BPC daily, really 2x a day for optimal.
Yes, I took it for 10 consecutive days, 1x per day. Based on what I read, this was the proper amount. I could have done it for 2x per day but would just be doing 1/2 unit so I didn't see the benefit.
UPDATE - I just finished my injections for BPC/TB. I took 10 injections at .1 units (filled to 10 on a 100 unit syringe). There was still some remaining peptide in the vial but I ran out of syringes and from what I ready, 10 injections should be good. After these 10 injections, I have minimal relief from my tennis/golfers elbow or other nagging pain that I have. I asked GROK about this and they said the tennis/golfers elbow is one that takes a while to heal and maybe 1 round of peptides wouldn't solve the problem. My plan is to take 2 weeks off and then will start another round of BPC/TB but this time I will purchase from a different supplier. My last purchase was from Simple Peptide but this time I'm going to go to Price Peptides, which was a referral from a Chiropractor that I know. Hopefully the next round will have more relief!

Same for me. I watched the movie when I was 11 years old or so and this made me want to go to Chicago. Fast forward to after college and a buddy of mine moved there and I went to visit him. Lived the city so much that decided to move there a few years later. Ended up living there for 10 years! Visited Winnetka many times around Christmas time which is where their movie was filmed.
