Golf ball cores comprising blends of polybutadiene rubbers
First Claim
1. A golf ball comprising a core, a cover, and at least one intermediate layer disposed between the core and the cover, wherein the intermediate layer comprises an elastomeric composition formed from a reactive co-agent in an amount of about 10 phr or less by weight of the elastomer and a polybutadiene blend comprising:
- a first polybutadiene formed with a cobalt or nickel catalyst having a first Mooney viscosity of from about 50 to about 150, and a second polybutadiene formed with a neodymium catalyst having a second Mooney viscosity of from about 30 to about 100.

Abstract
A golf ball comprising a solid core and a cover disposed about the core, wherein the core is formed from a polybutadiene blend comprising a) a first polybutadiene having a first Mooney viscosity between about 50 and about 150, and b) a second polybutadiene having a second Mooney viscosity between about 30 and about 100, wherein the first Mooney viscosity is greater than the second Mooney viscosity, and wherein the blend has a greater weight percentage of the first polybutadiene than that of the second polybutadiene.
