A golf ball includes, as a composing element, a hot-molded product obtained from a rubber composition which includes a main rubber containing 10 to 90 mass % of a polybutadiene, an unsaturated carboxylic acid and/or a metal salt thereof, and an organic peroxide. The polybutadiene has 60% or more of cis-1,4-bonds. Further, letting a Mooney viscosity (ML1+4(100° C.)) of the polybutadiene be ML and a viscosity of a toluene solution containing 5 mass % of the polybutadiene at 25° C. be eta(mPa.s), ML and eta satisfy a relationship of eta>=20xML-600. |
