Abstract:
1. A golf ball having a non-planar parting line on its spherical surface, the golf ball comprising: a non-planar parting line resulting from superimposing of a base waveform with at least one shorter wavelength secondary waveform; the secondary waveform defined by a series of concentric arcs, wherein the arcs have radii determined by corresponding dimples, the dimples having diameters defined by the relationship (1.005)D adjacent arcs being connected with a straight line that is tangent to the arcs creating an acute angle α; the length of the straight line defined by L the sum of the lengths of the straight lines are defined by the lengths of the arcs as and the length of the shortest line segment in the parting line relates to the corresponding dimple diameters defined by L
