Polyurethane covered golf ball

摘要

The invention relates to a golf ball having a polyurethane cover substantially free of surface defects caused by a pin mold. By centering the golf ball core in its cover without the use of a mold having retractable or fixed alignment pins, a golf ball without surface defects in its cover resulting from the pins is achieved. To accomplish this "pinless" centering, a centering apparatus is used to properly position the golf ball core in the first mold half used to form the polyurethane cover.
