Compositions for golf equipment
First Claim
1. A golf ball comprising at least one thermoplastic, thermoset, castable, or millable material formed from a composition comprising at least one hydroxy-terminated polyamide, wherein the hydroxy-terminated polyamide is a reaction product of at least one polyamine polyamide or polyamine and at least one cyclic ester or hydroxy acid, or a reaction product of polyacid polyamide and at least one aminoalcohol or polyol amine.

Abstract
Golf balls comprising thermoplastic, thermoset, castable, or millable elastomer compositions are presently disclosed. These elastomer compositions comprise reaction products of polyisocyanates and telechelic polymers having isocyanate-reactive end-groups such as hydroxyl groups and/or amine groups. These elastomer compositions can be used in any one or more portions of the golf balls, such as inner center, core, inner core layer, intermediate core layer, outer core layer, intermediate layer, cover, inner cover layer, intermediate cover layer, and/or outer cover layer.
