Abstract
A golf ball is provided having a controlled weight distribution about a designated spin axis. The golf ball includes a core defining one or more high density regions interiorly disposed along a common plane and centered about the horizontal spin axis of the ball. As a result of the controlled weight distribution, the resulting ball significantly reduces hooks and slices. A method of manufacturing and/or utilizing the present golf ball is also provided.
Claims20
A golf ball comprising:
- a core having one or more layers;
- and
- one or more high-density regions interiorly disposed along a common plane in at least one of the core layers of the golf ball and centered about the horizontal spin axis of the ball.
A golf ball comprising:
- a core, said core defining at least one hollow channel extending around the longitudinal axis of the core perpendicular to the ball's spin axis;
- and
- at least one high-density region disposed in said hollow channel.
A golf ball having a controlled weight distribution about the ball's horizontal spin axis comprising:
- a core having a high density region interiorly disposed within the extension perimeter of the core along the ball's gyroscopic center plane and about the ball's spin axis.
