ABSTRACT:
A golf ball includes a solid core, an intermediate layer, and a cover having dimples formed therein. The core has a Shore D hardness at the surface of 30-48, the intermediate layer has a Shore D hardness of 53-60, and the cover has a higher Shore D hardness of 55-65. In the cover, 370 to 450 dimples of at least two types having different diameters and/or depths are distributed so as to cover at least 63% of the ball surface. The index Dst of the overall dimple surface area is at least 4. The golf ball provides significantly improved flight distance and a good feel by virtue of a good balance in hardness and optimized dimple characteristics.
