The invention provides novel compositions and golf balls formed from those compositions. The compositions generally include a cured blend of an elastomer, a peroxide polymerization agent, a co-agent, and an unsaturated polycarboxylic acid. More particularly, the cured composition includes a cur ed blend of cis 1,4 polybutadiene, dicumyl peroxide, zinc diacrylate, and fumar ic acid. One piece golf balls formed of these compositions have improved durability. |
