Golf ball with non-circular sickle-shaped dimples

摘要

A new dimple configuration for the surface of a golf ball is characterized by non-circular sickle-shaped dimples. Each dimple includes a convex outer edge having a first radial configuration and an inner edge having a second radial configuration. Preferably, the inner edge is concave and the inner and outer edges meet at opposite sides of the dimple. The area between the edges is recessed relative to the golf ball surface. At least some of the sickle-shaped dimples are arranged in an interlocking pattern to maximize the dimpled area of the golf ball surface.
