| 6624221 | Resin composition for golf ball and golf ball A resin composition comprising, in admixture, (A) a specific thermoplastic resin component, (B) at least one wax component selected from among (b-1) a fatty acid having 20-80 carbon atoms and/or a derivative thereof and (b-2) an oxidized natural wax and/o... | 09/23/2003 |
| 6572494 | Distance golf ball-DDH steel distance The golf ball comprises all known cores provided with a cover produced by a polymer blend that combines the durability of a conventional cover with the feel of a traditional balata cover having a plurality of dimples in a modified dodecahedron pattern. Th... | 06/03/2003 |
| 6527653 | Pentagonal hexecontahedron dimple pattern on golf balls Golf balls are disclosed having novel dimple patterns determined by a pentagonal hexecontahedron. A method of packing dimples according to a pentagonal hexecontahedron is also disclosed. For each disclosed dimple pattern, a pentagonal hexecontahedron exte... | 03/04/2003 |
| 6329458 | Golf ball cover compositions and golf balls An ionomer resin component containing (a) a ternary ionomer resin and optionally (b) a binary ionomer resin, optionally blended with (c) a non-neutralized olefin-unsaturated carboxylic acid random copolymer, is blended with (d) a metal soap of a fatty aci... | 12/11/2001 |
| 6241627 | Dimpled golf ball A golf ball has plural types of dimples on a spherical surface, which is assumed to be a regular icosahedron having twenty triangles. Apexes of five triangles join together at a vertex. Those dimples arranged in each triangle constitute an arrangement uni... | 06/05/2001 |
| 6206792 | Golf ball having elongated dimples and method for making the same A spherical ball and a method of making the spherical ball wherein the ball has a plurality of elongated dimples substantially covering the outer surface of the ball without any dimple overlap. The elongated dimples are of at least two types including a f... | 03/27/2001 |
| 6200232 | Golf ball and method of arranging dimples thereto A golf ball is molded in a mold comprising a pair of removably joined mold sections. The golf ball has a plurality of dimples, the dimples being arranged in a polyhedral arrangement. The golf ball is free of a great circle which does not intersect with th... | 03/13/2001 |
| 5947844 | Golf ball and mold therefor A golf ball having a plurality of dimples on its spherical surface molded by a mold which has a spherical cavity therein and is composed of a pair of mold sections being removably mated along with a parting surface at the position corresponding to an equa... | 09/07/1999 |
| 5586951 | Golf ball A golf ball includes a substantially spherical surface containing a plurality of dimples of differing diameter. Twelve spherical regular pentagons and twenty spherical regular triangles are arranged on the spherical surface in a manner corresponding to a ... | 12/24/1996 |
| 5377989 | Golf balls with isodiametrical dimples In a golf ball, non-circular isodiametrical dimples provide increased efficiency of coverage of the surface of a golf ball (in comparison with the conventional circular dimples). Additionally, the aerodynamic properties of the ball are improved. The dimpl... | 01/03/1995 |
| 4960282 | Golf balls A golf ball with a plurality of dimples in its spherical outer surface has at least 10% of said dimples so disposed relative to one another that any two adjacent dimples overlap. The minimum overlap width is greater than 0.02 inches (0.508 mm).... | 10/02/1990 |
| 4877252 | Golf balls A golf ball (10) has a plurality of dimples in its outer surface. At least 10% of the dimples are so disposed relative to one another that any two adjacemt dimples overlap. The region of each overlap may have a maximum width of from 1% to 20% of the diame... | 10/31/1989 |
| 4729861 | Method of making golf balls Dimples are arranged on the surface of a golf ball in a manner which makes the golf ball 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... | 03/08/1988 |
| 4722529 | Golf balls A spherical golf ball (10) is provided with at least 500 dimples and 30 bald patches symmetrically disposed over the surface of the ball, the disposition of the dimples being substantially the same in each of twelve regions (11) of the surface of the sphe... | 02/02/1988 |
| 4142727 | Golf balls A golf ball has a surface pattern of dimples arranged to provide at least 12 symmetrically disposed bald patches, a bald patch being defined in terms of its ability to accommodate a spherical rectangle of specified minimum width and area relative to the d... | 03/06/1979 |
