Compositions for golf balls that include polyurea linkages and that are crosslinked in the soft segments of the polymer backbone. In particular, the compositions of the invention, which are based on a polyurea have improved crosslink density from the crosslinking between the soft, unsaturated segments of the polymer backbone. The curative blend includes at least one isocyanate-reactive component and a free radical initiator.

1. A golf ball comprising a core and a cover, wherein the cover is formed from a composition comprising: a prepolymer comprising the reaction product of an isocyanate-containing component and a first isocyanate-reactive component, wherein the first isocyanate-reactive component comprises an amine-terminated polyhydrocarbon; anda curative blend comprising a second isocyanate-reactive component comprising at least two amino groups, a trifunctional polyol, and at least one free radical initiator,wherein the composition comprises crosslinks between the hydrocarbons. 2. The golf ball of claim 1, wherein the isocyanate-containing component comprises at least two isocyanate groups. 3. The golf ball of claim 1, wherein the amine-terminated polyhydrocarbon is selected from the group consisting of amine-terminated polybutadiene, amine-terminated polyisoprene, poly(hydrogenated isoprene)amine, poly(hydrogenated butadiene)amine, and mixtures thereof. 4. The golf ball of claim 3, wherein the amine-terminated polyhydrocarbon comprises primary amino groups at the terminal ends. 5. The golf ball of claim 3, wherein the amine-terminated polyhydrocarbon comprises secondary amino groups at the terminal ends. 6. The golf ball of claim 3, wherein the amine-terminated polyhydrocarbon comprises primary amino groups, secondary amino groups, or a combination thereof at the terminal ends. 7. The golf ball of claim 3, wherein the amine-terminated polyhydrocarbon is amine-terminated polybutadiene. 8. The golf ball of claim 1, wherein the at least one free radical initiator comprises peroxide. 9. A golf ball comprising: a core; anda cover formed from a castable composition comprising: a prepolymer comprising: a polymer backbone comprising polyhydrocarbon and urea linkages; anda plurality of terminal ends comprising isocyanate groups;a curative blend comprising a first isocyanate-reactive component comprising terminal amino groups capable of reacting with the isocyanate groups, a second isocyanate-reactive component comprising terminal hydroxyl groups capable of reacting with the isocyanate groups, wherein at least one of the first and second isocyanate-reactive components are trifunctional, and a free radical initiator capable of crosslinking the polymer backbone. 10. The golf ball of claim 9, wherein the polymer backbone comprises polybutadiene. 11. The golf ball of claim 9, wherein the free radical initiator comprises peroxide. 12.
