ABSTRACT:
A golf ball has dimples arranged as constrained by a plurality of geometric shapes, and the geometric shapes are located so the sphere of the ball is symmetric about the origin. There is a regular heptagon at each of the poles of the sphere, and bases of irregular pentagons are contiguous with the polar heptagon and surround the ball. Heptagons are then contiguous with the pentagons, followed by more pentagons which extend around the equator. The pentagons at the equator are alternately inverted with respect to one another, and the two hemispheres are alike. A line bisecting the short sides of the pentagons is a geodesic, and one of these is the equator. The equator is the only great circle not intersected by a plurality of dimples.
