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.

      Day 7 - Mirror work, trying to hit that PGA-logo position in my follow through. Mirror really helped, need to film soon.

      First - glad to see these popping up again. Now to the topic at hand - I would rather be option 1.  If I know how far it's going (I mean a yard or two) I can always play to the wider parts of the fairway and/or the green and still do reasonably well.  Now if I could just really hit the "number" that well.

      Day 2 (10 Mar 25) - Long day of driving to dr appt with son.  Thankfully got in one of my fave putting drills (two ball side by side) - the goal to have both balls come off the putter face equally by having them come off the putter face as close to the same time as possible.  First few rolls - the toe was leading the way as that ball flew off the face.  By the end of the drill both balls were basically equal off the face, rolling to within a couple of inches of each other.  Nice drill of focusing on squaring the face.  BTW - I was using the old Odyssey DF992.

      Day 161 - 2025-03-10 Got a decent, long session in. Focused mostly on the backswing feels, and moved on toward the end of the four hours (not all hitting balls, I installed a motion sensing light switch in there too, and worked with a student over FaceTime for a bit) on the downswing feel.
