Enhanced Golf Ball and Method for Its Construction

Abstract

The present invention relates to a new, improved, technologically enhanced golf ball and a method for its construction. The new technologically enhanced golf ball will be an improvement over existing golf balls and will be used in conjunction with other enhanced golf equipment to capture, analyze, score (i.e. using USGA rules), save, archive, track and communicate (e.g. verbal, sound, tactile and/or visual) real-time relevant golf data specific to individual golfers: 1) during practice/lessons; or 2) for every shot on every hole of an entire recreational round of golf. The present invention will be particularly useful in helping to provide an information support structure for the recreational golfer similar to what is routinely available to the tour professional golfer through his caddy, spotters, volunteer laser range finders and other support.

Benefits of technology

[0011]Given the advantage of the professional caddies, spotters, volunteer laser operators, etc. to the tour golfing professional and the complete lack of availability of a similar support structure for the average recreational golfer, it is the object of the present invention to provide an improved golf ball and method for its construction as one of the enhanced golf components of a new

Problems solved by technology

As one moves from low, to intermediate to high performance golf balls, it is generally the case that: a) the golfing skills of the participating golfer increases; b) the participating golfer generally asks more of the golf ball; and c) in order for the ball to deliver more along that performance continuum its construction becomes progressively more complicated.

The resultant price of the golf ball goes up as the golf participan
