Abstract
A hot to cold runner system for a golf ball injection mold is disclosed. The hot to cold runner system includes a hot runner for supplying layer-forming material in a molten state, the hot runner including a heated manifold having a hot runner drop connected thereto, and a cold runner operatively connected to the hot runner drop such that the cold runner is in fluid communication with the hot runner. The cold runner injects the material into a mold cavity to form a golf ball layer over a core. Methods of forming a golf ball layer by injection molding using the hot to cold runner system are also disclosed.
