1. A golf ball having at least one layer formed from a polymer composition, the polymer composition comprising:
- at least 50 wt %, based on the total polymeric weight of the polymer composition, of an acid polymer having acid groups, wherein at least 70% of the acid groups are neutralized; and
at least 0.5 wt %, based on the total polymeric weight of the polymer composition, of an alkanol amine plasticizer.

Abstract
The present invention is directed to a golf ball having at least one layer which includes a polymer composition containing at least 50 wt % of an acid polymer and at least 0.5 wt % of a plasticizer selected from the group consisting of alkylamines, alkanol amines, and fatty acid amines, wherein the weight percentages are based on the total polymeric weight of the polymer composition. At least 70% of the acid groups of the acid polymer are neutralized by a cation source or a metal salt thereof.
