Patent attributes
A golf ball including a core having a diameter of 0.5 inches to 1.4 inches, a compression of 45 or less, and a COR of 0.770 to 0.810; a cast polyurea cover; and an intermediate layer disposed between the core and the cover, the intermediate layer having a thickness of 0.11 inches or greater and being formed from a composition comprising a highly-neutralized thermoplastic material comprising an ethylene, a ,β-ethylenically unsaturated C3-8 carboxylic acid copolymer(s), a fatty acid salt, and a sufficient amount of a cation source to increase the level of neutralization of all the acid moieties to 100%; wherein a combination of the core and the intermediate layer results in a compression of 70 to 100, and the golf ball has a COR of 0.805 to 0.820 when measured at an incoming velocity of 125 ft/s and greater than 0.75 when measured at an incoming velocity of 160 ft/s, and a compression of 75 to 105.
