    So first, i need to provide a bit of history and a picture of Bat I. Got Bat 1 a few years back while stuck in Phoenix due to it being to hot to fly. It happened to be on a Fathers Day Sunday, and i had seen these many times in the Denver airport and wanted one, but it never seemed convenient on my return travel through there. So this was my opportunity and the same shop was located in the PHX airport. I purchased Bat I 
    This guy is great. So this year I asked for another one, whom i had only seen pictures of.....never in person. I did feel strongly that Bat I needed a female friend.....and well a little one (which aliens with Fathers Day. So my family got me Bat 2 this year. Haven't had a chance to hang him just yet, but will do so one evening this week while egging. 



    As a follow on note....I did cook a pork roast and and my son joined us for our family dinner.






    I hope all my egghead fathers had a great day yesterday.
    Nice bats!

    They realize you’ll need to acquire a bigger cooker to take advantage of that book, right?

    I have a T3 lite stainless in 7mm-08....... it will always put the 1st 2 in the same hole...I have had some great groups with any bullet weight.....hand loaded.....that is good enough for me for a hunting rifle.

    Wife got me a BGE mat and a looflighter- anyone have any experience with a looflighter?

    I have used a Looftlighter for several years now. I like it but I am sure the weed burner fans will disagree.

    This is what I got this year for Father's day.  I have gotten into trap shooting with my oldest son this year and had been wanting to upgrade my gun.  This is way better than what I was going to upgrade to.  It's a Browning Cynergy Unsingle trap combo.

    Me too. With all the “fad” calibers out there now, it seems like old quality staples like the 30-06 and especially the .308 fell out of favor.
