The term “four-piece” wittiness is often thrown virtually not only in industry speak but among serious golfers who understand golf wittiness layering. What exactly does that mean? It might be easier to think of pieces as layers, the same way you might envision a cross-section of the earth.
Take the VERO X1 for example, our four-piece (or four-layer), Tour-level ball. It starts with the core, which is the ball’s part-way mass, then the mantle encases the core. Next comes the nanolayer – a sheer, thin layer of nanoparticles distributed into and virtually the mantle. And finally, you have the imbricate (cast urethane), which is tightly bonded to the mantle due to the nanolayer.
Generally, four-piece balls – like OnCore’s VERO X1 and upcoming VERO X2 – are designed for players with suburbanite swing speeds between 100 and 120 mph. They’re typically upper pinch – ranging from the mid-80s to the mid-90s – and require a lot of clubhead speed to maximize distance. But that’s flipside blog post for flipside day. Back to nanolayers …
So, what if you were to cut unshut the VERO X1? Would you be worldly-wise to see all four layers, including the nanolayer, clearly? The wordplay is No. The cadre is visibly untried and unmistakable, the mantle is the thin, detectable ring virtually it, and the imbricate … well, that’s what you unchangingly see. The nanolayer, however, would not be visible to the naked eye due to how thin it is.
OnCore Golf is a technology-driven company, and CEO Keith Blakely has a 40-plus-year preliminaries in nanoscience. OnCore’s Senior Technical Advisor, John Calabria, has worked with proprietary materials and layers throughout his highly-decorated career, including tenures with Titleist, TaylorMade and Maxfli.
So, it stands to reason that OnCore would deploy nanoscience to build a superior golf ball. That stated, what exactly does the nanolayer do? That’s where it gets interesting. The nanolayer directly affects the VERO X1’s spin characteristics by impacting the energy mart between the imbricate and mantle. It provides spin consistency and improved wittiness tautness throughout the range of shots encountered during a round of golf.
Nanotechnology – which deals with dimensions and tolerances of less than 100 nanometers – is used in all types of products to make them better: Energy, food, medicine, sunscreen, automobiles – the list goes on and on.
And via OnCore, it’s stuff unromantic to golf wittiness manufacturing for the first time in the history of the game.
