A compressible core with an RFID tag is described. The compressible core comprises an RFID integrated circuit, and an inlay material sandwiched between a top hemisphere and a bottom hemisphere. The RFID integrated circuit includes a memory that stores a unique identifier. The inlay material includes an RFID antenna electrically coupled to the RFID integrated circuit. The top hemisphere of the compressible core is separated from the bottom hemisphere of the compressible core. The inlay with the RFID antenna and the RFID integrated circuit placed between the top and bottom hemispheres. The top hemisphere, the inlay and the bottom hemisphere are joined together forming a compressible core. Additionally, the molded shell encapsulates the compressible core.

A portable golf ball scrubber assembly includes a housing. Each of a plurality of straps is coupled to the housing and is extendable around a pole. First and second tracks are positioned within the housing. The second track surrounds the first track. The second track has an opening to receive a golf ball. Each of a plurality of bristles is positioned within the housing to scrub the golf ball. A crank is rotatably coupled to the housing and an arm positioned in the housing engages the crank. The arm travels around the first track and the second track when the cranks is rotated.

Multi-piece golf balls having a multi-layered solid core and multi-layered cover are provided.

An item holder primarily containing two parts: a ball shaped element and a clip. The clip can be seated neatly into a cutout in the ball shaped element. The clip can also be designed as a divot tool or a spike and contains a clamp that can be used to hold a cigar or cigarette, support a golf club or have other uses. The ball shaped element is sized to fit neatly into the ball bracket on any pull cart or motorized cart equipped with such a bracket.

The present invention provides a golf ball comprising a core of one or more layers and a cover of one or more layers which encases the core, wherein at least one layer of the cover is formed of the resin composition comprising (a′) a polyester resin and (b) an amine-containing polymer having a branched structure. In the golf ball of the present invention, the adhesion property between the core and each cover layer adjacent to the core can be improved and the excellent durability can be obtained.

A golf ball includes an assist mark 10 and a guide mark. The assist mark is straight in plan. The guide mark is distorted in plan. The guide mark is in the shape of an arrow as a whole. The guide mark looks straight to a player swinging a golf club. The player moves the head of the golf club along the direction of the guide mark.

Systems and methods for tracking a sports ball assembly in real time during a sporting event are disclosed. A structure of the sports ball assembly is also disclosed. The sports ball assembly comprises at least one electronic circuit embedded or attached to a sports ball. The sports ball assembly is in network communication with a server processor via at least two receivers within a sports arena. The sports ball assembly generates and transmits UWB data packets comprising movement-related data for the sports ball assembly in real time at a predetermined rate. The at least two receivers receive the UWB data packets and transmit to the server processor with time stamps. The server processor is operable to determine a movement of the sports ball assembly based on the UWB data packets and the time stamps received from the at least two receivers.

In a golf ball having a two-layer core which includes an inner core layer and an outer core layer and having a cover of one or more layer, the outer core layer is formed of an elastomer composition that includes specific amounts of (A) polybutadiene having a 1,2-bond content of 50 to 95%, (B) a photocurable monomer, oligomer or polymer, and (C) a photopolymerizable initiator. The outer core layer has a thickness of from 1.0 to 4.0 mm, and the two-layer core has a surface hardness on the JIS-C scale of from 75 to 95. The ball is provided with a hardness gradient at the core interior, which lowers the spin rate of the ball, has an improved durability to cracking, and production costs for the outer core layer are kept relatively low.

Methods of creating golf products with complex structures that would be difficult, impossible, or cost prohibitive to produce, such as lattice structures, beam structures, and complex surface-based structures, and golf products that are created using those methods, are described herein. The structures described herein may be made from metal, non-metal materials, or combinations thereof, and may have one or more portions that are made from transparent or translucent materials.
