Golf Ball With Improved Durability

A golf ball consisting essentially of:

• an inner core having a diameter ranging from 0.75 inch to 1.20 inches, a mass ranging from 5 grams to 15 grams, and is composed of a polybutadiene in an amount greater than 60 weight percent, polyisoprene in an amount of 1-30, Weight percent, ainc diacrylate in an amount of 10-50 weight percent, zinc oxide in an amount of 1-30 weight percent, zinc stearate in an amount of 1-20 weight percent, peroxide initiator in an amount of 0.1-10 weight percent, and zinc pentachlorothiophenol in an amount of 0-10% weight percent;
• an outer core disposed over the inner core;
• a mantle layer disposed over the outer core, the mantle layer consisting essentially of a first ionomer in an amount ranging from 25 to 60 weight percent of the mantle layer, a second ionomer in an amount ranging from 25 to 60 weight percent of the mantle layer, a third ionomer in an amount ranging from 5 to 20 weight percent of the mantle layer, and a methyl methacrylate, butadiene, styrene (MBS) in an amount ranging from 5 to 15 weight percent of the mantle layer, the mantle layer having a thickness ranging from 0.03 inch to 0.07 inch;
• and
• a cover layer disposed over the mantle layer;
• wherein the mantle layer, outer core and inner core assembly has a coefficient of restitution of at least 0.8 at a ball speed of 125 feet per second;
• wherein the mantle layer, outer core and inner core assembly has a compression ranging from 50 to 80 under a 200 pound load.
