Abstract
In a multi-piece solid golf ball having a core, an envelope layer, an intermediate layer and a cover, the surface hardnesses of the respective layers are set so as to satisfy specific relationships. Also, the initial velocities measured for the core, for a sphere obtained by forming the envelope layer over the core (envelope layer-encased sphere), for a sphere obtained by forming the envelope layer and the intermediate layer over the core (intermediate layer-encased sphere) and for the ball are set so as to satisfy specific relationships. In addition, the deflection (mm) of the ball when compressed under a given load and the deflection (mm) of the intermediate layer-encased sphere when compressed under a given load are set so as satisfy a specific relationship.
