Charley Hudak – From concept and design to materials and marketability; what makes a great golf shoe, the development of the creative process, and why he loves ice baths.
Charley Hudak (IG: @charleyhudak, FB: @charley.hudak, P: @charleyhudak) is the Senior Designer for COBRA PUMA Golf. He has had an amazing career in the shoe design business where he has designed for many well-known brands such as GREATS, DC Shoes, and AND1. Charley’s love of shoes and design started at a young age but did not take the linear path many believe successful careers take. You could say Charley’s career found him as much as he found it and upon completing his education at the prestigious Industrial Arts Program at the University of Cincinnati his career has seen continual growth and development.

What is The Golf Paradigm (Pair-a-dime)?
The Golf Paradigm is a theory that encompasses a Whole-In-One approach to improvement. It begins with the overall paradigm; i.e. the game of golf. Followed by two parts that are always to remain in balance; i.e. the golf yin/yang – ‘improving’ and ‘enjoyment’. Helping to maintain that balance are the 5 elements of the game; the swing, club fitting, health/fitness, mental, and integration. Knowing which area to focus on and how the other areas supplement that helps to form the golfers ‘recipe’ for improvement. As the golfer improves their recipe, or what is focused on, changes and this is what allows them to reach levels of play they never thought possible. It’s not magical, but it’s close.
