On Thursdays at keeners it’s the day called big water bacon beatdown Thursday. Essentially you find scary holes and drop into them and get worked. We start the day at macoys, which has a huge hole called Phil’s. Dropping into Phil’s hole is definitely fairly scary, but in the end it ends up being super productive. This past Thursday I had the biggest beatdown of my life. Lasting for just over a minute getting my paddle torn from my hands and ending in a swim. Every person I have meet has not enjoyed swimming and neither do I but at keeners when you swim (especially out of a beatdown) everyone is cheering and they don’t care that you swam. The other thing is it makes you less afraid of big holes. Which is probably a good and a bad thing but I think the good out weighs the bad. Overall I think the experience you have on Thursdays can help your paddling for than an average day at keeners.
