Golf ball having a high moment of inertia
First Claim
1. A golf ball comprising a thin dense layer encasing a core, wherein the thin dense layer is encased by a cover, the thin dense layer is comprised of a fully neutralized jonomer and has an inner diameter of at least 38.4 mm, has a specific gravity of greater than 1.2, has a thickness from 0.025 mm to 1.27 mm and is positioned at a distance of less than 4.83 rein from the surface of the ball, wherein the thin dense layer is a non-continuous layer.

Abstract
A golf ball formed to have a low spin, high moment of inertia core assembly, which comprises a low specific gravity core and non-continuous high specific gravity intermediate layer. This core assembly is encased within a soft cover with Shore D hardness less than 65. The low specific gravity core is preferably made from a foamed polymer, and the non-continuous high specific gravity core is preferably a geodesic or polyhedron screen or a perforated shell.
