still pics, and a clear copy of an interview with Mindy from golf world in
1975. You have to click around a bit to find all the Mindy stuff.

Is that a garden rake Mindy is swinging in one
of the photo's?

Garden Rake

It was indeed a garden rake which Blake was swinging in the photo. I am almost certain that it and one other photo were used as the model for the drawings in figures 2 and 3 of GTTB, ie, Mindy swinging an 'outsize club'. It's interesting that the blogger says his own swing, apparently the 'Watts Pendulum Swing', incorporates some of Mindy Blake's principles. The most I can see of Mindy in the blogger's swing is some similarity of positioning at address. SD

Yes it is he nicked it from wentworth g c at the bottom of his garden. I hit balls with him into that net with my swivel grip.

Steve,
Did you play golf with Mindy? Any interesting stories to tell about him? What was your 'swivel grip'? SD
