Abstract
In a golf ball having a core and a cover, the cover is formed primarily of polyurethane, the ball has a diameter of at least 42.8 mm and a weight of not more than 44.9 g and, in an impact test carried out by hitting the ball with a driver at a head speed of 40 m/s, the sum t+tof the time trequired from initial contact by the driver with the ball for deformation of the ball to reach a maximum and the time trequired from the state of maximum ball deformation for the ball and driver to separate is not more than 660 μsec. This golf ball makes it possible for golfers who have a high head speed and ordinary golfers who do not to compete without relying excessively on superiority in terms of distance.
