Abstract:
Golf balls comprising a multi-layer core and a cover are disclosed. The multi-layer core comprises a layer formed from a highly neutralized polymer composition and a layer formed from a thermoset rubber.

Claim (Index 1):
A three-layer golf ball consisting essentially of:\n an inner core layer having a diameter of from 0.500 inches to 1.580 inches and formed from a first thermoset rubber composition; at least one outer core layer having a thickness of from 0.005 inches to 0.300 inches and a surface hardness of from 50 Shore C to 90 Shore C and formed from a highly neutralized polymer composition, wherein the highly neutralized polymer composition comprises:\n an acid copolymer of ethylene and an \u03b1,\u03b2-unsaturated carboxylic acid; \n a non-acid polymer selected from the group consisting of polyolefins, polyamides, polyesters, polyethers, polyurethanes, metallocene-catalyzed polymers, single-site catalyst polymerized polymers, ethylene propylene rubber, ethylene propylene diene rubber, styrenic block copolymer rubbers, alkyl acrylate rubbers, and functionalized derivatives thereof; \n an organic acid or salt thereof; and \n a cation source present in an amount sufficient to neutralize greater than 80% of all acid groups present in the composition; and \n a single layer cover.
