Right you are, Drew. In fact, the MacDonald Exercises (#6 and #7 from the book Golf, Robert MacDonald, 1927) were the basis for Phase II. See http://lynnblakegolf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4435 and click on the images to enlarge.
A modified Mehlhorn drill (from the book Golf Secrets Exposed, Bill Mehlhorn and Bobby Shave, 1984) was the basis of Phase I. Bill Mehlhorn was a premier ball striker and a three-time leading money winner on the PGA Tour in the '30s. [I strongly recommend this book and have arranged with Bobby Shave a 20 percent discount for LBG members. Just drop Bobby a line at info@mehlhorngolf.com, tell him which products you want (I recommend the videos, too) and that you're a friend of Lynn Blake Golf. That will do it.]
The bottom line is that the basics of what I teach stretch back at least a century (to Harry Vardon). But the precision that I teach goes back only to 1969, the date Homer Kelley published the first edition of The Golfing Machine. Finally, the application of what I teach is unique to each student and is often 'made up' on the fly. I see the motion as it is and then, as it could be. My communication skills and the player's dedicated effort bridge the gap.
It is what I do.
Whew . . . I'm glad to hear Silver Surfer is still around . . . he's been AWOL . . .I was worried that Mikey took a vacation way up NAWTH. . . he's probably got his tongue stuck to a lamp post up there some where.

Sorry Bucket,
Life can sometimes get in the way of so much fun. Just ask EdZ and 6BMike...Yoda always leaves the front porch light on for the Prodigal Sons of TGM .
