Zusammenfassung:Dimples on a golf ball are interrelated by dimple number, dimple diameter and dimple depth and are arranged on the surface of the golf ball in a manner which enables the golf ball to travel further. At least about 80% of the distances between the closest points of the edges of adjacent dimples are less than about 0.065 inches and at least about 55% of the distances between the closest points of the edges of adjacent dimples are greater than about 0.001 inches. Dimple number, dimple diameter and dimple depth are also interrelated in a specific manner according to the formula: +TR wherein: d=average depth of all dimples in inches D=average diameter of all dimples in inches S=computed unknown (1.0 or less for present invention) x, y, a and b are dependent on the number of dimples.
