Abstract:
Golf ball incorporating thermoplastic blend of (i) ionomer(s); (ii) different thermoplastic polymer(s) selected from thermoplastic polyurethane(s), thermoplastic urea(s), and/or thermoplastic urea-urethane hybrid(s); and (iii) polyester elastomer(s) and/or polyamide elastomer(s) (“PEPA”). Ionomer is present in amount of about 45 wt % or greater and PEPA present in amount of from about 2 wt % to about 35 wt %. Thermoplastic polymer(s) may be present in amount of from about 8 wt % to about 50 wt %; or from about 25 wt % to about 45 wt %; or from about 35 wt % to about 50 wt %. Ionomer amount may be greater than amount of thermoplastic polymer. Thermoplastic polymer may be a polyurethane present in amount of greater than 20 wt % and to about 40 wt %; while the PEPA is present in amount of from about 5 wt % to about 30 wt %. PEPA is sometimes present in an amount of from about 15 wt % to about 35 wt %.

Claim (Index 8):
The golf ball of  claim 1 , wherein the thermoplastic polymer has a material hardness of from about 20 Shore D to about 65 Shore D.
