A method for making a golf ball comprising the steps of providing a nanoparticulate; providing a first monomer comprising an olefin; providing a second monomer comprising an α,β-ethylenically-unsaturated carboxylic acid; in-situ polymerizing the first monomer and the second monomer in the presence of the nanoparticulate to form a first polymer; providing a cation source; post neutralizing the polymer composition with the cation source to form a nanocomposite ionomer; and forming a cover layer from the nanocomposite ionomer. |
