Variable density core golf balls
First Claim
1. A golf ball comprising a cover, a core and at least one intermediate layer positioned between the cover and core layers, wherein the specific gravity of the cover layer is at least 1.5 times the specific gravity of the intermediate layer and further wherein the specific gravity of the intermediate layer is at least 1.5 times the specific gravity of the core, and wherein the cover is a thin dense layer having a specific gravity of at least about 1.5 and a thickness from about 0.001 inch to about 0.050 inch.

Abstract
A golf ball is provided having a modified density gradient among the inner layers to produce a desired high or low moment of inertia and controlled spin rate is disclosed. The golf ball has three or more inner layers in addition to a cover, and the density of the inner layers is selected such that the layers inside the cover have a density progression from the core to the cover or from the cover to the core.
