Abstract

A thread-wound golf ball includes a core having a center ball and a rubber thread layer and a cover. The cover is composed primarily of a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer of an aliphatic and/or alicyclic diisocyanate. The golf ball is prepared by impregnating the rubber thread layer with a urethane dispersion and injection molding the cover over the treated core.
