I've been Playing Golf for: 15 years
My current handicap index or average score is: 11
My typical ball flight is: fairly straight
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: push shot with my irons

I am in need of some advice and help.  Just within the past two weeks I have developed a sudden tendency to severely push my irons.  I have never had this issue before and am not certain what I'm doing differently than two weeks ago.  It's embarrassing and is driving me crazy.  I golf three times a week and just can't enjoy golfing with my friends when I'm playing so poorly. I'm suddenly shooting in the 90's.  It seems that 95% of my iron shots on the course are big pushes.  Very frustrating!  I have uploaded four short videos of me on the driving range.  (Had to hit lots of balls to get a videos of straight shots!)   I have two videos each from the front and standing behind me.  Can someone please tell me what I'm doing differently. 

By the way, I've never uploaded videos, etc or posted on a forum before so hopefully I've done this correctly.  Thanks for your patience, help and insight.

Welcome to The Sand Trap. I can't seem to pull your videos into Analyzer, but one thing I notice is your hips are sliding back in the back swing a bit. This can cause you to have to move them much more forward during the downswing. When this happens with me, I can get a push.
