Shoeless Joe - Animation Time!

Today's Animation Time features the Shoeless Joe Rig.
Shoeless Joe pulls back and anticipates the swing. Then he steps forward and swings out. His body then continues the motion of the swing and the back foot steps forward to help maintain balance.

Today's Inspiration:
