Golf ball comprising one or more layers and/or indicia formed from a fluorescent composition comprising: a base polymer; and a colorant; wherein the colorant is a small-molecule ionic isolation lattice formed from one or more fluorescent dye and one or more cyanostar macrocycles. The one or more fluorescent dyes may include at least one dye selected from xanthenes, oxazines, styryls, cyanines, trianguleniums, or mixtures thereof. The colorant may be a dispersion of the small-molecule ionic isolation lattice in a carrier medium or a powder. In particular embodiments, at least one of the one or more layers is a cover layer and/or a coating layer.

An object of the present invention is to provide a golf ball showing both striking a good balance between the visibility and the weather resistance. The present invention provides a golf ball comprising a golf ball body and two or more paint film layers formed on a surface of the golf ball body, wherein the paint film layers comprises a first paint film layer containing an inorganic fluorescent agent but substantially not containing an ultraviolet absorber, and a second paint film layer containing an ultraviolet absorber but substantially not containing an inorganic fluorescent agent; and the second paint film layer is disposed inside the first paint film layer.

A light charger charges a plurality of luminescent balls to emit light for use in dim lighting. The charger is a housing subdivided into a hopper section, a transport and light charging section, and a base section. The transport and light charging section includes a transport assembly integrated with a light charging assembly, with the transport assembly configured to receive and transport luminescent balls from the hopper into and through the light charging assembly, which comprises at least one light source. The light source comprises at least one LED and an illuminating light panel interposed between the LED and the luminescent ball when operating. The base section comprises an ejection exit point for the charged luminescent ball to exit the light charging assembly and a sensor for activating the system to eject at least one luminescent ball.

A golf game assembly includes a plurality of goals. The plurality of goals may be arranged on a support surface. Each of the goals is comprised of a phosphorescent material to be visible at night. A plurality of golf clubs is provided. Each of the golf clubs is comprised of a phosphorescent material to be visible at night. A selected one of the golf clubs is selected by a player. A plurality of balls is provided. A selected one of the balls may be placed on the support surface. Thus, the player may strike the selected ball with the selected golf club. Each of the balls is comprised of a phosphorescent material to be visible at night.

A ball includes a bladder and multi-layer cover. The multi-layer cover includes an outer layer and an intermediate layer between the outer layer and the bladder. The intermediate layer is formed of a plurality of perforated panels. In at least one embodiment, the plurality of perforated panels are foam panels defining an array of apertures. In at least some embodiments, the array of apertures in the intermediate layer are detectable by one or more human senses via the outer layer.

A golf ball aligning device comprises a shaft having a first and a second end, a handle mounted to the first end and a head member mounted to the second end. The head member further comprises a ball opening extending through the height of the head member having a chamfered or rounded bottom edge to engage a golf ball. An alignment grid on the top face of the head member comprises a crosshair pattern centered with the ball opening. A golf ball engaged with the bottom edge may be manipulated and oriented relative to the alignment grid for setting the trajectory of a shot.

The present application relates to a mark ball special for a golf high-speed camera sensor. The mark ball includes a sphere. A mark portion is provided on a surface of the sphere, the mark portion includes a plurality of marks that are arranged along a circumferential direction of the sphere and shaped different from each other. A plurality of different marks are arranged on a golf mark ball such that a high-speed camera sensor can capture diversified images of the ball.

A method can include providing an object having a size smaller than a size of a known regulation object, projecting the object, via a delivery device, toward a trainee, and training the trainee to follow the object. A method can include determining a game parameter of a game trajectory of a sports object that was projected along the game trajectory in a real-time sports event, and based on the game parameters, adapting a delivery device to deliver a training object along a training trajectory that mimics at least a portion of the game trajectory, with the training object being smaller than the sports object.

The present disclosure is a game that has a mixer positioned at a first location on a gaming area and a plurality of balls randomly dispersed throughout the gaming area. In response to a command, a player on a team collects one or more of the plurality of balls, the score is incremented based upon the balls collected, the player throws the collected ball(s) into the mixer, and the mixer disperses the ball(s) back into the gaming area.
