Embodiment Construction

[0017]As shown in FIG. 1, the present invention provides a golf ball 10 with an integrated circuit (IC) chip 12 imbedded in its core 14. The IC chip 12 can input, output and / or store data relating to the golf ball's flight properties such as distance, height, spin, trajectory, angle the ball is struck and shot history. The IC chip 12 can also store information about the corresponding golf club, as will be further explained below.

[0018]The golf ball 10 can be manufactured similar to the golf ball described in U.S. Patent Application No. 2005 / 0164808. The golf ball 10 can comprise a solid core 14, a cover 16, and the IC chip 12 can be encapsulated with a protective layer 18 in the center of the ball.

[0019]The material of which the solid core 14 is made can be a rubber base composition which is obtained by an ordinary process including compounding in a selected proportion and vulcanizing under controlled conditions. The core-forming composition generally comprises a base rubber, a cros...
