Shooting Birdies at Purgatory

Shooting Birdies at Purgatory

QIC: Mongoose

Date: 9/19/26

PAX: Burlap, Boomerang, D Day, THE Pony Express, Parkay, Closer, Splash, Offside, Ziggy Stardust, Sour Mash, BAM!, Mongoose

Three foursomes made tee times at Purgatory today.  They were treated to 15 holes of misery as we meandered around the AO, stopping for 2 minutes of pain each time. Warmarama was the usual stuff.

This is a patented and copyrighted Mongoose workout, so I won’t be posting the full details, but know that we did:

Merkins, Squats, Plank Jacks, Irkins, Jack Reachers, Curls (with a rock), Plank Jacks, OH Claps, Man Maker Merkins, Squat Jumps, Bear Crawl/Crawl Bear, Peter Parker, Low Dolly, Carolina Dry Docks, and Low Flutter.

The idea is, for each exercise, do as many as you can with targets for Par, Birdie, and Eagle.

Mumblechatter was mild today.  Even with Boomerang and Sour Mash there.  I guess 2 minutes work on each exercise kept them quiet.

Lots of Eagles scored today, so I’ll have to make it more challenging next time.

Splash voiced his displeasure about how the extensive upper body work might mess with his actual golf round planned for this afternoon.  I’m sure he would shoot over 100 either way, so at least he got a little stronger this morning.

I thought the PB would bring out more of the Redwood crew, but only a couple were there.  I guess they decided sleeping in was a better option today.

Everybody worked hard.  The biggest fail was at the tennis courts.  We were supposed to bear crawl down and crawl bear back in < 2 minutes for Par.  I think only Offside actually made Par for the hole.

D Day mentioned starting a movement to wear slacks again, but I think the world is going away from business casual these days.  Good luck to you.
