It is a cool pose when I consider it, but my first thought is always that it looks like The Mick nearly knocked himself upside the head with the bat.

I guess it's a golf swing? (I'm not a golfer...)

Lol!! I can see exactly what you mean. Now you've ruined it for me.

Nice Aaron too. No print snow is tough to find. Nice pick up.

I like the picture. But knowing Mantle, I think he was probably trying to act goofy in it with the whole golf swing thing. Who knows.
