Ok ive been an avid golfer for 11 years now my game for the past 5 or so years has been pretty good shooting in the mid to low 80's and for the past couple of years in the high 70's. For some reason the past month or so i have been in a complete disaster mode flaring everything i hit out to the right now i know this is normally caused by dropping my right shoulder but even my short game has been just disastrous all my wedges are doing the same thing. any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.

Look at the videotape or go see a PGA pro for a lesson. One of those two things can help pretty easily.

When I hit a wall I seek out a lesson.
If you are against a lesson I would say take your game back to its fundamentals...stance, grip, posture. |

I would look into getting a lesson from a good instructor. Or have a friend who knows your swing take a look at it. If you have a smart phone of some kind you can download a swing app and take a look that way.
For me it usually means I have become lazy and am doing something completely stupid like pivoting my left foot on my heal in my back swing or not keeping my head down. Try taking it easy on the range and slow down, maybe you can figure it out that way. |

Take a week or two off from the game and come back later with fresh eyes. When you come back, check your fundamentals (as LyinLewis said), and start by making slow, even-tempo swings to make sure all your body parts are firing in the correct sequence.
Watching Caddyshack helps too. |

I look for a lesson and if can't get one go to videos of self and ones I have on file. If lessons make sure its some one you can work with that is not trying to change everything in your swing. Just want a tune up not a rework.

You have changed something very small in your swing. it could be where the ball is? little late with the club head? The best way I think to fix it is a lesson. I good golf pro will see it in the first few swings.

Take a break all together.
