The present invention is to a golf ball having an equator at latitude 0° and two poles; and an equator region defined by latitudes 0 to 25°, a shoulder region defined by latitudes from more than 25° to less than 65°, and a pole region defined by latitudes 65° to 90°; and a dimple pattern on the surface of the golf ball having an average dimple volume of the equator region Ve, an average dimple volume of the shoulder region, Vs, and an average dimple volume of the pole region, Vp such that the ratio Vs/Ve is less than 0.97 and the ratio Vp/Vs is less than 0.97.
1. A golf ball having an equator at latitude 0° and a pole at latitude 90°; and an equator region defined by latitudes 0 to 25°, a shoulder region defined by latitudes from more than 25° to less than 65°, and a pole region defined by latitudes 65° to 90°; and having numerous dimples on the surface thereof, and where Ve is the average dimple volume of the equator region, Vs is the average dimple volume of the shoulder region, and Vp is the average dimple volume of the pole region; and the ratio Vs/Ve is less than 0.97 and the ratio Vp/Vs is less than 0.97, and further comprising;
1) a core comprising a center,
2) an outer cover layer; and
3) four or five intermediate layers.
2. The golf ball of claim 1 , wherein the core comprises polybutadiene, the intermediate layers each individually comprise a polyalkenamer or an ionomer, and the outer cover layer comprises a thermoset polyurethane or polyurea.
3. The golf ball of claim 2 , wherein the core further comprises a peptizer.
4. The golf ball of claim 3 , wherein the peptizer comprises a pyridine peptizer.
5. The golf ball of claim 2 , wherein the ionomer comprises a modified ionomer.
