Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0722752A1] A golf ball is provided with a substantially clear cover so that the core of the ball is visible through the cover. The core may be printed with indicia such as a logo or stripes which are visible through the clear cover. The core may also be colored by pigment which is included in the core or by a coat of pigmented paint. One or more clear top coats can be applied to the cover. A used ball can be recyled without stripping the top coat by abrading the outer surface of the ball and applying a fresh top coat. Extended range ball use is possible because the logo stays intact indefinitely. <IMAGE>
