Golf and Depression... IN THE SAME SENTENCE?!! How unusual.

I usually manage to get 2 or 3 depressions out of a golfball before I lose
it (leading to another depression).

No Problem, I only know that 'cos it says so on the ball!
The ProV1 has a simpler pattern than the ball in the picture so you
might want to use that instead. As far as I know, every dimple in a
ProV1 is surrounded by six other dimples in a hexagonal arrangement.
The ball in the picture seems to mix up hexagons and pentagons. But
also notice there is a "seam" - a narrow strip running around the
equator of the ball (there's one in the ball in the picture as well if
you look closely - you can see it in the lower half of the ball
starting about 5:00 o'clock curving around to the left and upward to
around 10:00 o'clock. So if you want to get it perfect you will have to
include that!

The number, depth and position of the dimples
influences the aerodynamic properties of the
golf ball. In general, the fewer the dimples, the
more piercing the flight. It also makes it more
difficult to 'work' the ball as the effect of spin
is reduced. HTH. Let us know how you get on :-)

Are you sure? A perfectly smooth ball a) does not fly very far, and b)
takes spin (in the air) more readily. It is the dimples that break up
the boundary layer, and give the ball better penetration through the air.

Quite so. Reduce the dimples to zero and the ball
will not fly at all. But Soeron was wondering how
to place a reasonable number of dimples, above
300 I think, and I was simply giving her some
guidelines concerning dimples v. ball flight.
The pro V1 has 392 dimples and was found to
soar too high when launched at high speed and
with a high spin rate. For this reason the V1x
with a reduced number of dimples, 332 to be
exact, was introduced for the likes of Ernie Els,
VJ Singh, etc. This ball has a lower, more
piercing ball flight but needs a very high launch
speed to perform properly.

It'll certainly fly, just not very well.

Hey Fivey,
Did you know that some of the early gutties used pimples
instead of dimples to achieve surface roughness?
Thanks for the link.

Fair enough. I read somewhere that 420 was a typical number of dimples.
My guess is that the number is reduced when they start introducing
dimples of differing sizes on the same ball, since depth will also be a
factor.

"der reiger?" Isn't that German for the clap? If you meant obligitory it
