I've hit 310 and 312 a couple of times, but it's a lot of work! Oh, the life of a penguin.
And how do you think the development process for this sort of thing goes?? Does a person (most likely a retiree with time on his or her hands) wake up and say to themselves, "I have to get to work on inventing a smack the penguin game. . ." something to improve the world.
How about the rest of the gang? Have you tried this link yet and how did you do??
Happy New Year!

My guess is ,all you long ballers "Slid" alot of hits to the center field fence. There certainly wasn't that much air under that black projectile. Am I right? Am I? Huh? Huh? Especially Little Buddy "the Scooter". and Roscoe that rascal,he is probably well versed in eighty sixing birdbrains from his birdcage with a bat type device. and that Top Gun guy who I know is versed well in swating flys from his BMw. Happy New Year G&H'ers. Red Bull

Yes Red Bull that is true,but the birdbrains I encounter tend to weave from side to side & back & forth.

Roscoe. It sounds to me like you bat clean up, because you are great at hitting screwballs. That explains the long hits. My humblist appology. I should have known better. It must be all that chrome dust in my brain. Red Bull

I am sure this was invented by some retired guy that has too much time on his hands

The Chrome Bat smacked it 323.5. I still can't believe a fat bird can travel that far. But, then again we have one that makes it the whole way on our spring trip every year. Imagine that? LET'S NOT JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS BOYS! I could be speaking of myself. (Not). Red Bull
