A golf ball is a ball designed to be used in the game of golf. Under the Rules of Golf, a golf ball weighs no more than 1.620 oz (45.93 grams), has a diameter not less than 1.680 in (42.67 mm), and performs within specified velocity, distance, and symmetry limits. Like golf clubs, golf balls are subject to testing and approval by the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews and the United States Golf Association, and those that do not conform with regulations may not be used in competitions (Rule 5-1 — also see rules of golf)
Wooden balls were used until the early 17th century, when the featherie ball was invented. This added a new and exciting feature to the game of golf. A featherie is a hand sewn leather pouch stuffed with goose feathers and coated with paint. The feathers in the ball were enough to fill a top hat. They were boiled and put in the cowhide bag. As it cooled, the feathers would expand and the hide would shrink, making a compact ball. Due to its superior flight characteristics, the featherie remained the standard ball for more than two centuries. However, an experienced ball maker could only make a few balls in one day, so they were expensive. A single ball would cost between 2 shillings and sixpence and 5 shillings, which is the equivalent of around 10 to 20 US dollars today
Invented the gutta-percha ball (or guttie). The gutta was created from dried sap of a Sapodilla Tree. The sap had a rubber-like feel and could be made round by heating and shaping it while hot. Accidentally, it was discovered that defects in the sphere could provide a ball with a truer flight than a pure sphere. Thus, makers started creating intentional defects in the surface to have a more consistent ball flight. Because gutties were cheaper to produce and could be manufactured with textured surfaces to improve their aerodynamic qualities, they replaced feather balls completely within a few years. In the 20th century, multi-layer balls were developed, first as wound balls consisting of a solid or liquid-filled core wound with a layer of rubber thread and a thin outer shell. This idea was first discovered by Coburn Haskell of Cleveland, Ohio in 1898. Haskell had driven to nearby Akron to keep a golf date with Bertram Work, then superintendent of B. F. Goodrich. While he waited for Work at the plant, Haskell idly wound a long rubber thread into a ball. When he bounced the ball, it flew almost to the ceiling. Work suggested Haskell put a cover on the creation, and that was the birth of the 20th century golf ball. The design allowed manufacturers to fine-tune the length, spin and "feel" characteristics of balls. Wound balls were especially valued for their soft feel. They usually consist of a two-, three-, or four-layer design, (named either a two-piece, three-piece, or four-piece ball) consisting of various synthetic materials like surlyn or urethane blends. They come in a great variety of playing characteristics to suit the needs of golfers of different abilities.
The current regulations mandated by the RA and the USGA state that diameter of the golf ball cannot be any smaller than 1.680 inches. The maximum velocity of the ball may not exceed 250 feet per second under test conditions and the weight of the ball may not exceed 1.620 ounces. Until 1990 it was permissible to use balls of no less than 1.62 inches in diameter in tournaments under the jurisdiction of the RA
When a golf ball is hit, the impact, which lasts less than a millisecond, determines the ball’s velocity, launch angle and spin rate, all of which influence its trajectory (and its behavior when it hits the ground). A ball moving through air experiences two major aerodynamic forces, lift and drag. Dimpled balls fly farther than non-dimpled balls due to the combination of two effects. Firstly, the dimples delay separation of the boundary layer from the ball. Early separation, as seen on a smooth sphere, causes significant wake turbulence, the principal cause of drag. The separation delay caused by the dimples therefore reduces this wake turbulence, and hence the drag. Secondly, backspin generates lift by deforming the airflow around the ball, in a similar manner to an airplane wing. This is called the Magnus effect. Backspin is imparted in almost every shot due to the golf club's loft (i. e. angle between the clubface and a vertical plane). A backspinning ball experiences an upward lift force which makes it fly higher and longer than a ball without spin.[1] Sidespin occurs when the clubface is not aligned perpendicularly to the direction of swing, leading to a lift force that makes the ball curve to one side or the other. Unfortunately the dimples magnify this effect as well as the more desirable upward lift derived from pure backspin. (Some dimple designs are claimed to reduce sidespin effects.) In order to keep the aerodynamics optimal, the ball needs to be clean. Golfers can wash their balls manually, but there are also mechanical ball washers available.
Dimples first became a feature of golf balls when a certain Taylor patented a dimple design in 1908. Other types of patterned covers were in use at about the same time, including one called a "mesh" and another named the "bramble", but the dimple became the dominant design due to "the superiority of the dimpled cover in flight".
Most golf balls on sale today have about 250 – 450 dimples. There were a few balls having over 500 dimples before. The record holder was a ball with 1,070 dimples — 414 larger ones (in four different sizes) and 656 pinhead-sized ones. All brands of balls, except one, have even-numbered dimples. The only odd-numbered ball on the market is a ball with 333 dimples, called the Srixon AD333. Officially sanctioned balls are designed to be as symmetrical as possible. This symmetry is the result of a dispute that stemmed from the Polara, a ball sold in the late 1970s that had six rows of normal dimples on its equator but very shallow dimples elsewhere. This asymmetrical design helped the ball self-adjust its spin-axis during the flight. The USGA refused to sanction it for tournament play and, in 1981, changed the rules to ban aerodynamic asymmetrical balls. Polara's producer sued the USGA and the association paid US$1.375 million in a 1985 out-of-court settlement. Golf equipment maker Callaway has introduced a ball with hexagonal dimples to increase the dimpled area on a golf ball, as hexagons tesselate unlike circles. The United States Patent and Trademark Office's patent database is a good source of past dimple designs. Most designs are based on Platonic solids such as icosahedron. Golf balls are usually white, but are available in other high visibility colours, which helps with finding the ball when lost or when playing in frosty conditions. As well as bearing the makers name or logo, balls are usually printed with numbers or other symbols to help players identify their ball.
There are many types of golf balls on the market, and customers often face a difficult decision. Golf balls are divided into two categories. recreational and advanced balls. Recreational balls are oriented toward the ordinary golfer, who generally have low swing speeds (80 miles per hour or lower) and lose golf balls on the course easily. These balls are made of two layers, with the cover firmer than the core. Their low compression and side spin reduction characteristics suit the lower swing speeds of average golfers quite well. Furthermore, they generally have lower prices than the advanced balls. Advanced balls are made of multiple layers (three or more), with a soft cover and firm core. They induce a greater amount of spin from lofted shots (wedges especially), as well as a sensation of softness in the hands in short-range shots. However, these balls require a much greater swing speed that only the physically strong players could carry out to compress at impact. If the compression of a golf ball does not match a golfer's swing speed, either the lack of compression or over-compression will occur, resulting in loss of distance. There are also many brands and colors to choose from, with colored balls and better brands generally being more expensive, making an individual's choice more difficult.
A number of designs of novelty ball have been introduced over the years, mainly as practical jokes for the amusement of fellow golfers, but also as "cheater" balls that do not conform to the Rules of Golf. All of these are banned in sanctioned games, but can be amusing in informal play.
Stallers are far softer than a normal golf ball, allowing them to be compressed far more easily and are given greater backspin when hit. Both of these give the ball a huge amount of lift, making shots climb very high into the air with very little distance travelled over the ground. In the right conditions, such a ball may travel backwards along its flight path or even perform a loop-the-loop.
Sponge balls are softer still. they are generally used as indoor or backyard practice balls, but some are deceptively similar in appearance to a normal ball. Such a ball will travel less than a quarter of the distance of a normal golf ball.
Floaters are less dense than a regulation golf ball so when hit into a water hazard, they bob on the surface when a normal ball would sink.
Used golf balls are golf balls that have been played, most likely hit into a water hazard, then retrieved, cleaned up and resold. Used golf balls comes in different gradings - one well-accepted standard is.[2]
Refinished, sometimes called reconditioned or refurbished, golf balls are different than used. Refinished golf balls may look new, but do not meet the manufacturer's original requirements. In the processing procedure, the golf ball is stripped of its original surface paint and reprinted with the original markings, then a new clear/coat is applied.
Golf balls with embedded radio transmitters to allow lost balls to be located were first introduced in 1973, only to be rapidly banned for use in competition

Former british prime minister Sir Winston Churchill once described golf as "a game whose aim is to hit a very small ball into an even smaller hole, with weapons singularly ill-designed for the purpose." He may have been right in his time, but not today. Golfers have become wanton technophiles, and although the most noticeable advances have come in the form of ever-expanding club heads, the most sophisticated technology resides in the one place where size and shape have stayed essentially constant. the golf ball.
Today's golf balls look remarkably similar to those from the 19th century, but what's inside has changed in a dramatic way, with new materials and designs fueling a veritable distance revolution in recent years. The credit tends to go to physics, but it is the chemistry of the golf ball that allows it to leap off the club head, bend in the air, and stop on a dime--while emerging from the ordeal virtually unscathed. The golf ball was not always such a marvel of materials science. The first golfers, on the eastern coast of Scotland in the 15th century, used balls made of local hardwoods like beech. In the early 17th century, the "featherie" was developed--a leather pouch stuffed with boiled feathers from chickens or geese. In 1848, the "gutty" came on the scene. The ball was made from gutta-percha, which is a coagulated latex, consisting mainly of trans-1,2-polyisoprene, that exudes as sap from sapodilla trees. When the sap is heated in water and rolled into a sphere, it forms a virtually indestructible ball. With the advent of industrialization in the late 1800s, companies began producing rubber balls from molds. In 1898, the Ohio-based tire and rubber company B. F. Goodrich introduced the first ball that had rubber threads wound around a natural rubber core, all encased in a gutta-percha sphere. The wound ball went through a number of incarnations--including one with a compressed air core that tended to explode--before manufacturers adopted a design that replaced the gutta-percha cover with balata, a form of natural rubber obtained from a South American tree. The balata ball became the weapon of choice for most golfers, pro and amateur alike. In the late 1950s, Richard W. Rees, a chemist at DuPont, created a material that would ultimately transform the game of golf. Another DuPont scientist had recently copolymerized ethylene and acrylic acid. Rees took a sample of this copolymer and converted it to its sodium salt, producing a hard substance known as an ionomer resin. Rolling the substance into a golf ball showed tremendous potential. "You could really hit some rotten shots, and the ball just came back for more," Rees said. "It seemed to be the perfect duffer's ball." Rees and DuPont went commercial with the material in 1964 under the trade name Surlyn, and it became the staple cover material for the vast majority of wound golf balls on the amateur market. Around the same time that Rees was developing Surlyn, Robert A. Molitor, a chemical engineer with Massachusetts-based sporting goods manufacturer Spalding, came up with the first real alternative to the wound ball. His two-piece ball had a polyurethane cover and a synthetic polybutadiene rubber core. The polyurethane was eventually replaced with Surlyn or other ionomer resins to become what was commonly known as a "distance ball." These balls flew far and were tough, but they also had an undesirable characteristic. "If you are old enough and a golfer, you may remember that the golf balls were hard as a rock back then," says Bob Weiss, a chemical engineering professor at the University of Connecticut. To soften the blow, researchers developed "soft ionomers." These are terpolymers of ethylene, methacrylic or acrylic acid, and a third component--usually an acrylate--that softens the material considerably and gives the golfer a better feel. In recent years, everything has changed. Multilayer balls hit the market in 1996, and the so-called distance revolution was launched. The Top-Flite Strata, the first of the multilayer balls, essentially bridged the gap between wound and solid-core balls with a hard "mantle" between the solid core and the soft terpolymer covering. "You want to reduce the spin that comes off the driver so that you don't have the ball ballooning up in the air and losing distance. hence the mantle," says chemist Tom Kennedy, vice president of research and development for Top-Flite Golf. "Then, in order to have a good playing ball around the green, you have the very soft outer cover." In late 2000, many tour players began teeing up another ball heralded for its distance, Titleist's solid-core Pro V1, and the average driving distance of professionals increased by more than 6 yards, according to
Magazine. "The hottest material right now is polyurethane," Weiss explains, and that is what Titleist and other manufacturers are using as a cover. Soft materials like polyurethane do not transfer energy well from the club to the ball, dampening the impact of the club head. But manufacturers have found a way to put an extremely thin layer of polyurethane over an ionomer mantle, minimizing the dampening effect. "Distance is a big thing for people," Kennedy says, speculating about the future of golf ball technology. "The problem is, in order to gain distance on high-end tour-quality golf balls, you have to have the skill set to take advantage of them. Most people don't." Still, a duffer can dream, and manufacturers will push the envelope while the demand is there. The next big thing, according to Kennedy, is a ball that will "mutate" in the air. Such a ball would soar like a cruise missile, hit the ground at a very shallow angle, and roll for up to 40 yards on hard ground.--

A golf ball can be driven great distances down the fairway. How is this possible? Is the drive only dependent on the strength of the golfer or are other factors at play? As we will see, the aerodynamic forces play a key role in the flight of the golf ball. We will start by looking at the history of the golf ball, show why a golf ball has dimples, then explain how lift is formed by the spin imposed on the golf ball. We will also look at how experimental tests can be performed using a spinning ball in a wind tunnel. History of the Golf Ball The early golf ball, known as a featherie, was simply a leather pouch filled with goose feathers. In order to obtain a hard ball, the pouch was filled while wet with wet goose feathers. Since people believed a smooth sphere would result in less drag (and thus fly farther), the pouch was stitched inside out. Once the pouch was filled, it was stitched shut. Therefore there were a few stitches on the outside of the ball. The ball was then dried, oiled, and painted white. The typical drive with this type of ball was about 150 to 175 yards. Once this ball became wet, it was totally useless. In 1845, the gutta-percha ball was introduced. This ball was made from the gum of the Malaysian Sapodilla tree. This gum was heated and molded into a sphere. This resulted in a very smooth surface. The typical drive with the gutta-percha ball was shorter than that obtained with the featherie. However, according to golf legend a professor at Saint Andrews University in Scotland soon discovered that the ball flew farther if the surface was scored or marked. This lead to a variety of surface designs which were chosen more or less by intuition. By 1930, the current golf ball with dimples was accepted as the standard design. The modern golf ball consists of rubber thread wound around a rubber core and coated with dimpled enamel. The dimples are arranged in rows. The number of dimples is either 336 for an American ball or 330 for a British ball. The typical drive with a modern golf ball is about 180 to 250 yards. The Dimples Why, then, does a golf ball have dimples? The answer to this question can be found by looking at the aerodynamic drag on a sphere. There are two types of drag experienced by a sphere. The first is the obvious drag due to friction. This only accounts for a small part of the drag experienced by a ball. The majority of the drag comes from the separation of the flow behind the ball and is known as pressure drag due to separation. For laminar flow past a sphere, the flow separates very early as shown in Figure 1. However, for a turbulent flow, separation is delayed as can be seen in Figure 2. Notice the difference in the size of the separation region behind the spheres. The separation region in the turbulent case is much smaller than in the laminar case. The larger separation region of the laminar case implies a larger pressure drag on the sphere. This is why the professor experienced a longer drive with the marked ball. The surface roughness caused the flow to transition from laminar to turbulent. The turbulent flow has more energy than the laminar flow and thus, the flow stays attached longer.
Is much larger than the average Reynolds number experienced by a golf ball. For a sand roughened golf ball, the reduction in drag at Re
Is greater than that of the dimpled golf ball. However, as the Reyn olds number continues to increase, the drag increases. The dimpled ball, on the other hand, has a lower Re
To decrease which implies that the flow becomes turbulent at a lower velocity than on a smooth sphere. This in turn causes the flow to remain attached longer on a dimpled golf ball which implies a reduction in drag. As the speed of the dimpled golf ball is increased, the drag doesn't change much. This is a good property in a sport like golf. Although round dimples were accepted as the standard, a variety of other shapes were experimented with as well. Among these were squares, rectangles, and hexagons. The hexagons actually result in a lower drag than the round dimples. Perhaps in the future we will see golf balls with hexagonal dimples.
How a Golf Ball Produces Lift Lift is another aerodynamic force which affects the flight of a golf ball. This idea might sound a little odd, but given the proper spin a golf ball can produce lift. Originally, golfers thought that all spin was detrimental. However, in 1877, British scientist P. G. Tait learned that a ball, driven with a spin about a horizontal axis with the top of the ball coming toward the golfer produces a lifting force. This type of spin is know as a backspin. The backspin increases the speed on the upper surface of the ball while decreasing the speed on the lower surface. From the Bernoulli principle, when the velocity increases the pressure decreases. Therefore, the pressure on the upper surface is less than the pressure on the lower surface of the ball. This pressure differential results in a finite lift being applied to the ball.
The dimples also help in the generation of lift. By keeping the flow attached, the dimples help promote an asymmetry of the flow in the wake. This asymmetry can be seen in Figure 5. In this figure, the smoke shows the flow pattern about a spinning golf ball. The flow is moving from left to right and the ball is spinning in the counter-clockwise direction. The wake is being deflected downwards. This downward deflection of the wake implies that a lifting force is being applied to the golf ball. Hook and Slice
A hook or a slice can be explained in the same way. If the golf ball is given a spin about it's vertical axis, the ball will be deflected to the right for a clockwise rotation and to the left for a counter-clockwise rotation. The generation of an aerodynamic force by a spin about the axis perpendicular to the flight path is known as the Magnus effect. The Magnus effect is important in most ball games. Happy Nonhooker In order to eliminate the hook or slice from a golfers game, modifications were made to the dimpled golf ball. Since we know how the dimples aid in producing lift, what if we removed the dimples from two sides of the ball and leave a strip of dimples around the equator. Then if we line up the ball on the tee such that the dimpled band is in the vertical plane, we can minimize the side force imparted by a spin about the vertical axis while still receive the benefits of the backspin. This ball was known as the Polara or the happy nonhooker. However, the United States Golfing Association soon became concerned that this ball would "reduce the skill required to play golf and threaten the integrity of the game." So they amended the rules to require that a "golf ball be designed to have equal aerodynamic properties and equal moments of inertia about any axis through its center." This new rule effectively made the happy nonhooker illegal. Effect of gravity During the last part of a golf balls flight, the gravitational forces become dominant. As the balls velocity decreases due to the drag imposed upon it, the lift decreases. At some point, the lift will no longer be greater than the weight and the ball will begin falling to the ground. Experiments The effects of the dimples on a spinning golf ball were measured experimentally. This was done by placing a model of the golf ball in a wind tunnel. Several problems occur whenever wind tunnel experiments are made. The most obvious is how do we keep the model in the center of the test section? For the spinning golf ball, another basic question must be answered - How do we make the ball spin? Scientist always seam to have answers for questions like these. Wires were used to suspend the model in the tunnel. The diameter of the wire had to be much smaller than the golf ball in order to minimize any possible interference effects. Also, to stabilize the ball, two wires had to be used. The first suspends the ball from the top of the tunnel, while the s econd stabilizes the ball from the bottom. Applying the spin to the ball is a harder problem. To solve this, a hollow golf ball is used. A small motor and bearing assembly on which the ball revolves is placed inside the ball. The wires also serve to supply a voltage to the motor assembly. Not only do the wires provide support and the necessary voltage for the motor, they also help in analyzing the forces acting on the ball. The upper wire is mounted to a strain-gauged arm which measures the lift force on the ball. It should be noted that since the ball is spinning about the vertical axis, this force is actually a side force. The strain gauge is in turn mounted to a rigid support attached to a wind-tunnel three-component balance. The wind-tunnel balance is used to measure the drag on the golf ball.

In the earliest days of golf on the eastern coast of Scotland, players used primitive equipment to play the game in a rather haphazard and casual manner. The first clubs and balls specifically made for golf were fashioned from wood. One documented reference is that of a John Daly playing with a wooden ball in 1550. In 1618 the feather golf ball or Featherie was introduced. This was a handcrafted ball made with goose feathers tightly packed into a horse or cow hide sphere. The feathers and leather were fashioned into a ball while wet. As the assembly dried out the leather shrank and the feathers expanded to create a hardened ball. The ball was then finished off by painting it and punched with the ball-makers mark. Quality varied according to the skill of the craftsman. Unfortunately, the handcrafted nature of the balls meant that they were priced beyond the pockets of the masses, sometimes more expensive than a club. Notable ball-makers of the 1600s were Andrew Dickson, Leith and Henry Mills, St Andrews. The introduction of the Gutta Percha ball or Guttie in 1848 by Rev Adam Paterson of St. Andrews and the spread of the railways directly contributed to the expansion of golf. The Guttie ball was made from the rubber like sap of the Gutta tree found in the tropics. When heated the rubber could easily be fashioned into a sphere and used as a golf ball. Not only could the ball be relatively cheaply produced, it could also be easily repaired by re-heating and then re-shaping. Initially Gutties had a smooth surface which meant that they didnt travel as far as the Featheries. The balls were usually stamped with the ball makers stamp, most notably Allan Robertson. After 1880, gutties were produced with patterns on their surface in an attempt to reproduce the distance characteristics of a scored Featherie. With the Victorians came industrialisation and mechanisation, and by 1890 Gutties were being made in moulds which further increased their affordability, consistency and quality. The most notable pattern of the period was the Bramble - raised spherical bumps across the surface of the ball. Many of the rubber companies including Dunlop began mass-producing balls which killed off the handcrafted ball business. In 1898, Coburn Haskell introduced the one-piece rubber cored ball which was universally adopted by 1901 after it proved so effective in the British and US Opens. These balls looked just like Gutties but gave the average golfer an extra 20 yards from the tee. These balls were constructed from a solid rubber core wrapped in rubber thread encased in a gutta percha sphere. Once W. Millison developed a thread winding machine, Haskell balls were mass-produced and therefore more affordable. Throughout this period there was a lot of experimentation with the patterns on golf balls - one of the reasons why golf collecting is so interesting. When William Taylor first applied the dimple pattern to a Haskell ball in 1905, golf balls took on their modern form. The dimple pattern maximises lift while minimising drag. Manufacturers continued to experiment with golf ball design including Goodrich who introduced the pneumatic ball in 1906 (the patent was held by T. Saunders and filed in 1901). Quite simply this was a Haskell ball with a compressed air core which unfortunately was prone to expansion with heat and therefore causing the ball to explode. Others tried mercury, cork and metal cores. Only in 1972, when Spalding introduced the first two piece ball, the Executive, was the basic Haskell design improved upon. In 1921, the RA and USGA standardised the size and weight of the ball. Since then further constraints have been proposed which are detailed in the rules. Between 1931 and 1990, both organisations differed on the dimensions of the golf ball which meant that the game played on either side of the Atlantic was similar but different. Today there is a rich variety of golf balls to suit the individual game and circumstance. Some offer control, some offer distance while others are suitable for practice only. Antique golf balls are avidly collected and are becoming increasingly valuable. A dimple patterned Guttie in good condition is worth about $US 500.

Can you explain why a golf ball has dimples? If dimples reduce drag, why don't we see this surface feature on other aerodynamic shapes like airplane wings? - question from Brent Obst & Andrew While few among us can deny that golf is one of the least exciting of all spectator sports, we aerospace engineers are fascinated by its aerodynamics! Even the non-golfers of the world are familiar with the shape of a golf ball, like that pictured below, and have probably wondered why its surface is covered with small indentations called dimples.
The difference in the flowfields around a smooth sphere and a rough, or dimpled, sphere can be seen above. Since the laminar boundary layer around the smooth sphere separates so rapidly, it creates a very large wake over the entire rear face. This large wake maximizes the region of low pressure and, therefore, results in the maximum difference in pressure between the front and rear faces. As we have seen, this difference creates a large drag like that seen below the transition Reynolds number. The transition to a turbulent boundary layer, on the other hand, adds energy to the flow allowing it to remain attached to the surface of the sphere further aft. Since separation is delayed, the resulting wake is much narrower. This thin wake reduces the low-pressure region on the rear face and reduces the difference in pressure between the front and back of the sphere. This smaller difference in pressure creates a smaller drag force comparable to that seen above the transition Reynolds number. These results tell us that causing a turbulent boundary layer to form on the front surface significantly reduces the sphere's drag. For a given sphere diameter, a designer has only two options encourage this transition, either 1) increase the speed of the flow over the sphere to increase the Reynolds number beyond transition or 2) make the surface rough in order to create turbulence. The latter case is often referred to as "tripping" the boundary layer. In the case of a golf ball, increasing the speed is not an option since a golfer can only swing the club so fast, and this velocity is insufficient to exceed the transition Reynolds number. That leaves tripping the boundary layer as the only realistic alternative to reducing the drag on a golf ball. The purpose of the dimples is to do just that--to create a rough surface that promotes an early transition to a turbulent boundary layer. This turbulence helps the flow remain attached to the surface of the ball and reduces the size of the separated wake so as to reduce the drag it generates in flight. When the drag is reduced, the ball flies farther. Some golf ball manufacturers have even started including dimples with sharp corners rather than circular dimples since research indicates that these polygonal shapes reduce drag even more.
The reason we do not see dimples on other shapes, like wings, is that these particular forms of boundary layer trips only work well on a blunt body like a sphere or a cylinder. The most dominant form of drag on these kinds of shapes is caused by pressure, as we have seen throughout this discussion. More streamlined shapes like the airfoils used on wings are dominated by a different kind of drag called skin friction drag. These streamlined bodies, like that pictured above, have a teardrop shape that creates a much more gradual adverse pressure gradient. This less severe gradient promotes attached flow much further along the body that eliminates flow separation, or at least delays it until very near the trailing edge. The resulting wake is therefore very small and generates very little pressure drag. However, there do exist other types of devices commonly used on wings that create a similar effect to the dimples used on golf balls. Though these wing devices also create turbulence in order to delay flow separation, the purpose is not to decrease drag but to increase lift. One of the most popular of these devices is the vortex generator.
Vortex generators are often placed along the outer portion of a wing in order to promote a turbulent boundary layer that adds forward momentum to the flow. As in the case of the golf ball, this turbulent boundary layer helps the flow overcome an adverse pressure gradient and remain attached to the surface longer than it would otherwise.
Allow us to transport you back to the 1400s to the fields where golf had its beginnings, playing with crude sticks with rough heads crafted from beech, apple or pear trees and hitting a ball made from wood. Then on to the windswept links courses of Scotland in the 17th Century with your club in your hand and your prized feathery golf ball on the tee.
Learn how the most renown feathery maker of them all purchased as many gutty percha balls as he could in the mid 1800s only to burn them all in a field in a bid to stop the ball replacing the feathery. How the gutty percha golf ball was originally smooth and it wasnt until golfers realized that the more play the guttys had, the more they marked the better they played.
It wasnt long before the gutty golf ball manufacturers realized this and began to create hand carved markings on all their balls to improve the aerodynamics. See the 100s of different types of rubber core golf balls created during the early 1900s as golfs popularity exploded, and golf ball manufacturers fought to create the winning formula.

When it comes to improving your golf game, you can spend thousands of dollars buying the latest titanium-induced, Tiger-promoted golf clubs. taking private lessons from the local "I used to be on the Tour" pro. or trying every slice-correcting, swing-speed-estimating, GPS-distance-guessing gadget. But, in the end, its about getting that little white sphere to go where you intend it to go. There are many very smart people trying to help you by designing the ultimate golf ball. Now, a breakthrough by scientists from Arizona State University and the University of Maryland may soon give golf ball manufacturers a more efficient method of testing their designs.
Their research uses mathematical equations that model the physics of a golf ball in flight. ASUs Clinton Smith, a Ph. D. student and his advisor Kyle Squires collaborated with Nikolaos Beratlis and Elias Balaras at the University of Maryland and Masaya Tsunoda of Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd. The team has been developing highly efficient algorithms and software to solve these equations on parallel supercomputers, which can reduce the simulation time from years to hours. Now that the model and process are in place, the next step is to begin the quest for the ultimate ball cover.
Two forces affect the flight and distance of flying spheres. gravity and aerodynamics. Eventually, gravity wins once the momentum of the ball is slowed by the aerodynamic drag. Since all golf clubs have some angular loft to their clubface, the struck ball will have backspin. As explained by the Magnus Force effect, the air pressure will be lower on the top of the ball since that side is moving slower relative to the air around it. This creates lift as the ball will go in the direction of the lower air pressure. Counteracting this lift is the friction or drag the ball experiences while flying through the air. Think about a boat moving through water. At the front of the boat, the water moves smoothly around the sides of the boat, but eventually separates from the boat on the back side. This leaves behind a turbulent wake where the water is agitated and creates a lower pressure area. The larger the wake, the more drag is created. A ball in flight has the same properties. The secret then is how to reduce this wake behind the ball. Enter the infamous golf ball dimples. Dimples on a golf ball create a thin turbulent boundary layer of air molecules that sticks to the balls contour longer than on a smooth ball. This allows the flowing air to follow the balls surface farther around the back of the ball, which decreases the size of the wake. Research has shown that a dimpled ball travels about twice as far as a smooth ball. So, the design competition comes down to perfecting the dimple. The number, size and shape can have a dramatic impact on performance. Typically, todays balls have us. spherically shaped dimples, each with a depth of about .010 inch. However, varying just the depth by .001 inch can have dramatic effects on the balls flight. Regarding shape, these traditional round dimple patterns cover up to 86 percent of the surface of the golf ball. To create better coverage, Callaway Golfs HX ball uses hexagon shaped dimples that can create a denser lattice of dimples, leaving fewer flat spots. Creating just the right design has traditionally been a trial-and-error process of creating a prototype then testing in a wind tunnel. This time-consuming process does not allow for the extreme fine-tuning of the variables. Improving the efficiency of this design process is exactly the goal of the ASU/Maryland researchers, who will present their work this week at the 61st Meeting of the American Physical Societys Division of Fluid Dynamics in San Antonio. Their mathematical models will allow many more permutations of the variables in much less time. In the meantime, when someone asks you, "Whats your handicap?" you can confidently tell them, "Well, my golf balls design does not optimize its drag coefficient which results in a lower loft and spin rate from its poor aerodynamics."
Increase drag slightly. But they also increase "Magnus lift", that peculiar lifting force experienced by rotating bodies travelling through a medium. Magnus lift is present because a driven golf ball has backspin. The same Magnus effect can cause a ball to hook or slice if it has sideways spin. Contrary to simple ideas of trajectories in a vacuum, golf balls do not travel in inverted parabolas. They follow an "impetus trajectory". * * * * (golfer) * * * * <-- trajectory \O/ * * | * * -/ \-T us. ground This is because of the combination of drag (which reduces horizontal speed late in the trajectory) and Magnus lift (which supports the ball during the initial part of the trajectory, making it relatively straight). The trajectory can even curve upwards at first, depending on conditions! Here we see a golf ball in flight, with some relevant vectors. F(Magnus) ^ | F(drag) <--- O us. > V \ \----> (sense of rotation) A golf ball leaves the tee with a speed of about 70 m/s and a backspin of at least 50 rev/s. The Magnus force can be thought of as due to the relative drag on the air on the top and bottom portions of the golf ball. the top portion is moving slower relative to the air around it, so there is less drag on the air that goes over the ball. The boundary layer is relatively thin, and air in the not-too-near region moves rapidly relative to the ball. The bottom portion moves fast relative to the air around it. there is more drag on the air passing by the bottom, and the boundary (turbulent) layer is relatively thick. air in the not-too-near region moves more slowly relative to the ball. The Bernoulli force produces lift. (Alternatively, one could say that "the flow lines past the ball are displaced down, so the ball is pushed up.") A difficulty comes near the transition region between laminar flow and turbulent flow. At low speeds, the flow around the ball is laminar. As speed is increased, the bottom part tends to go turbulent
The dimples aid the rapid formation of a turbulent boundary layer around the golf ball in flight, giving more lift. Without them the ball would travel in more of a parabolic trajectory, hitting the ground sooner (and not coming straight down). This was discovered by accident in the early days of golf when golfers noticed that old roughened golf balls went further. Despite the drag, a dimpled golf ball can even go farther in air than it would in vacuum given the same initial velocity and low angle. However, a golf ball shot at 45 and 70 m/s in vacuum would go 500 metres to the first bounce, which exceeds all records.

Briggs was trying to explain the mechanism behind the "curve ball" in baseball, using specialized apparatus in a wind tunnel at the NBS. He stumbled on the reverse effect by accident, because his model "baseball" had no stitches on it.

Employing the same sort of scientific approach commonly used to improve the design of automobiles, aircraft, ships, trains, and other moving objects, the team has used a supercomputer to model how air flows around a ball in flight and to study how this flow is influenced by the ball's dimples. Their goal is to make a better golf ball by optimizing the size and pattern of these dimples and lowering the drag golf balls encounter as they fly through the air. For a golf ball, drag reduction means that the ball flies farther, says ASU's Clinton Smith, a Ph. D. student who is presenting a talk on the research on November 23, 2008 in San Antonio.* Smith and his advisor Kyle Squires conducted in collaboration with Nikolaos Beratlis and Elias Balaras at the University of Maryland and Masaya Tsunoda of Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd. It's no secret that dimples improve the flight of a golf ball. Once in flight, a golf ball experiences aerodynamic forces generated from the surrounding air flow as well as gravity. The latter constantly pulls it towards the ground, while the aerodynamic force in the direction of motion, or drag force, dictates the distance it travels. The main purpose of dimples is to reduce the drag and help the ball fly farther. Actually, dimpled golf balls experience about half the drag as those with no dimples. Although the United States Golf Association (USGA) regulates the design of golfballs, laying out uniform size and weight specifications that all approved golf balls must meet, the dimple pattern is not regulated. It is one of the very few parts of the ball over which companies have freedom to change the design. But what pattern is best for lowering the drag? Up to now, dimple design has been more of an art than a science. For many years, sporting goods companies would design their dimple patterns by simple trial and error, testing prototype after prototype against one another. The new study takes a different approach, asking how to design dimple size and pattern based on mathematical equations that model the physics of a golf ball in flight. Working out the solution to these equations -- even on the fastest personal computers today -- is not feasible since it would take more than 15 years of computing time just to get a glimpse of the flow around the golf ball for a fraction of a second. Nikolaos Beratlis, a Ph. D. student at the University of Maryland, and his advisor Elias Balaras have been developing highly efficient algorithms and software to solve these equations on parallel supercomputers, which can reduce the simulation time to the order of hours. The number crunching for a typical computation, for example, takes approximately 300 hours using 500 fast processors running in parallel (normal desktop computers may have one or two slower processors). The group's work presented by Smith in San Antonio will summarize their research. So far, they have characterized air flow around a golf ball at the finest level of detail ever attempted, teasing out the drag at each exact location and showing how air flows in an out of each tiny dimple on a golf ball's surface as it spins through the air during flight. In the end, they produced a model that reveals the physics of a flying golf ball with the greatest level of detail ever seen -- the first step in achieving the project's long-term goal of optimizing dimple design to realize the lowest drag possible. The next step, says Smith, is to extend the work by comparing different dimple designs. New designs are still years away at best, however, so don't give up the driving range just yet. * The talk, Direct Numerical Simulations of the Flow around a Golf Ball. Effect of Rotation took place November 23, 2008 in the Gonzales Convention Center in San Antonio, TX at the 61st Meeting of the American Physical Society's Division of Fluid Dynamics.

Hello, my name is Bill and this is the place to find excellent grade used golf balls of all the major brands at a fraction of the cost of new ones. I live in Western Pennsylvania (USA)and a lot of golf is played around here. More specifically we're located not too far away from Arnold Palmer's home town of Latrobe. I stand behind the quality of the used golf balls sold here. They are in exceptional condition. Money back if not completely satisfied!! NO X- Outs
A mix of popular brands of used golf balls characterized by a few scuff marks (no cuts or any other cover defect, minor discoloration (off white) and/or club marks on some. Still a very nice looking ball that can even be used to play a round of golf with if perfection is not needed .Also makes a great driving range ball
Characterized mainly by discoloration,(off-white, ivory color) and / or some scuffs, moderate wear, possibly a club mark on a small percentage Still a great used golf ball to hit around in the backyard, I use even a lower grade ball when I do, at 20 cents a ball you won't feel bad about losing it
Once again these used golf balls are characterized mainly by discoloration,(more so off-white / brownish in color) and / or some scuffs, moderate wear, possibly a club mark.

This annual event held at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, FL is always a treat to go to as all the new golf merchandise for the year is displayed. This year marked the return of Titleist. Yea! But the Show attendance was smaller and products more limited due to the economy constraint. A sign of the times was the introduction of the new Dixon golf ball. It and its shipping boxes all use recycled materials yet meet USGA specifications.
Interestingly, for the third year in a row, I could not find a new putter better than the Kramski HPP-325 winner of the 2006 Show. This top-of-the-line putter has all the characteristics of a world class putter. Great feel, balance, alignment, and even a ledge on the back plate to easily pick a golf ball up off the ground - with no bending.
Putter review. Amazing! They agreed with what I knew three years ago. The key to this blade putter is its great balance, feel, and seemingly huge sweet spot. Its sole is designed and balanced to minimize head twisting. Plus the face is designed to get the ball rolling right away - minimal ball skid occurs. Overall, the design of the Kramski HPP 340 promotes an effortless square-back and square-through putting stroke. You just plain make more putts. Try one.
For all you golf ball collectors out there, two really unique balls came out. The Caesar ball from the Cayman Islands and the GolfCross oval/football shaped ball from New Zealand. The Caesar is a smooth ball so it does not go as far as a dimpled ball BUT it goes very straight since you can't spin the ball. It is a great ball for par 3's and a very smooth rolling putting ball. The GolfCross ball is a gotta have one due to its uniqueness. The ball is used on special courses courses in New Zealand, the UK, and a few more locations. Hockey like nets are used as the target or cup and special tee pods are used to position the ball on shots. The way you lean the ball on the pod determines its direction/curve. This new version of golf in catching on particularly on places were there is not a lot of space. But you just have to have a ball as it is such a fun conversation piece. email me if interested in obtaining one or go to www. golfcross. com.
The biggest problem a golf ball collector has is limited wall space for a ball display. Next, comes display cost and needing to move balls around or put new balls in - and balls come in different sizes. Now, add that balls tend to rotate around due to surface vibrations. And, maybe most important, you want your spouse to like the display well enough so you can proudly show off your collection inside your home. So what about solutions?
These problems are solved by a revolutionary new ball storage system concept using our patented golf ball shelf to attach large numbers of golf balls to a vertical surface. The display takes less wall space (because the ball shelves are so thin) and yet, the design allows one to easily add or remove balls. Mixing various sized balls within the display is also easy because of the flexibility of the ball shelf. Another important feature is that the unique design of the ball cradle minimizes the ball turning problem (due to surface vibrations) of present racks. Finally, because the shelves are transparent, they virtually disappear after the display is filled with balls. After all, your collection of balls should be the center of attraction.
I had been trying different ways to display my collection of 14,000 country club logo golf balls. Finally, after over ten years and many attempts, we came up with the ball shelf. The concept is simple, yet more functional than any ball rack on the market now. Our display line can have a modern contemporary look (using shiny black or clear acrylic as the backpanel), or a traditional look (using oak or oak veneer), or a nice, yet inexpensive, look (using dull black expanded PVC) for full wall collections.
So, what are you waiting for? Show off your special golf balls in a display which will enhance any room in your home! Or if you haven't started collecting, well, start now! Collect old balls or, easier yet, logo balls. Save balls from courses that you have played, or specializeon professional sports teams, colleges, golf courses or country clubs, Top 100 clubs, major golf tournaments or any kind of tournament, airlines, banks, beverages, business, Disney characters, military, novelties, vehicles, etc. Getting and displaying balls is fun! And you will make many new friends as you enjoy the journey of logo ball mania, I mean, collecting.

The dimples on a golf ball are more than a pretty pattern - they help a struck ball fly further. But a new patent application says that replacing them with grooves will make for fewer missed putts. A ball's dimples help a golfer in two ways. As well as letting the ball cling onto a cloak of air to reduce turbulence and drag, they also magnify the effect of lift created by backspin. The trouble with dimples, say Hae Cheon Choi and colleagues at Seoul National University in Korea, is that striking one of the indentations off centre can send the putted ball in the wrong direction. The team's answer is to design a golf ball with grooves rather than dimples on its surface, arranged in such a way as to divide the ball's surface into triangles. The grooves disrupt airflow in a similar way to dimples, so the ball still carries roughly the same distance, say the team. But the grooves cover a smaller surface area of the ball than dimples. That makes it much less likely that a putter might strike them in a way that sends the ball off at an odd angle. The end result is fewer putting errors, they claim. The new ball should be permitted by both of the governing bodies that regulate golf - the USGA that covers the US and Mexico and the R&A that covers the rest of the world. Neither organisation's rules explicitly mention surface pattern - instead specifying the ball's weight, diameter, symmetry and initial velocity when struck with a club. The pattern on a ball's surface must be symmetrical, though, precluding arrangements that cause a ball to "self right" into a particular position to ensure a straighter flight.

What's the point of a redesigned golf ball? It won't change the ranking of players and will have only a mild impact on scores. I say keep the dimples they're traditional.
The trouble with dimples, say Hae Cheon Choi and colleagues at Seoul National University in Korea, is that striking one of the indentations off centre can send the putted ball in the wrong direction."Nonsense. Striking one of the grooves edges can lead precisely to the same problem. Oh, and by the way. the asymmetry presented by the polar squares amidst the rest of the surface triangles might make the ball realign it's spin while in flight following a drive. that could make it do some funny swerving midflight. Which makes one wonder why they didn't opt for a groove poattern that was more symetrical, following the regular polygon pattern of a buckyball or soccer ball, for example. They're just trying to sell their novel ball. It's a gimmick. Like striped toothpaste.
This quote is in accurate. The cloak they are referring to is called a boundary layer, and the point of the dimples is to make this boundary layer turbulent not less turbulent. Turbulent boundary layers stick to the balls surface longer decreasing drag. "A ball's dimples help a golfer in two ways. As well as letting the ball cling onto a cloak of air to reduce turbulence and drag, they also magnify the effect of lift created by backspin."
Golf balls patterned with grooves, not dimples, should mean fewer missed putts, a new patent application says (Image. WIPO)
The reason why golf balls have dimples is a story of natural selection. Originally, golf balls were smooth. but golfers noticed that older balls that were beat up with nicks, bumps and slices in the cover seemed to fly farther. Golfers, being golfers, naturally gravitate toward anything that gives them an advantage on the golf course, so old, beat-up balls became standard issue. At some point, an aerodynamicist must have looked at this problem and realized that the nicks and cuts were acting as "turbulators" -- they induce turbulence in the layer of air next to the ball (the "boundary layer"). In some situations, a turbulent boundary layer reduces drag. If you want to get deeper into the aerodynamics, there are two types of flow around an object. laminar and turbulent. Laminar flow has less drag, but it is also prone to a phenomenon called "separation." Once separation of a laminar boundary layer occurs, drag rises dramatically because of eddies that form in the gap. Turbulent flow has more drag initially but also better adhesion, and therefore is less prone to separation. Therefore, if the shape of an object is such that separation occurs easily, it is better to turbulate the boundary layer (at the slight cost of increased drag) in order to increase adhesion and reduce eddies (which means a significant reduction in drag). Dimples on golf balls turbulate the boundary layer. The dimples on a golf ball are simply a formal, symmetrical way of creating the same turbulence in the boundary layer that nicks and cuts do.

On its first shot, the nanotechnology golf ball has landed slightly in the rough. The NDMX, a golf ball designed by material science specialist NanoDynamics that will correct for a slight slice or a hook, was supposed to be on store shelves this past spring. The company, however, was able to get prototypes to only a few select golfers in late June. It now plans to release the golf ball in late 2005, according to the company's Web site. NanoDynamics is also still seeking approval from the U. S. Golfing Association so that the ball can be used for tournament and professional play. The company did not return calls seeking comment. The NDMX can fly straighter than normal golf balls because the internal weight of the golf ball can shift dynamically. Shifting the weight allows the ball to fly along its so-called natural angle of flight--in other words, the place a golfer intended it to go. The ball won't correct for a severe shank, but it can prevent slight drifts in direction.

Produced by Matt Lieber Listen in Real Audio G2 or MP3 Discuss in Transom Talk From Matt Lieber A week before September 11th, I moved to New York with the firm, vague idea of working in Public Radio. I was on my way, in fact, to find a temp job in lieu of public radio, when the second plane hit and when I saw the man hitting golf balls in the park. The scene was strange and compelling, and I figured I ought to talk to him on tape, a thought which was immediately followed by feelings of shame and self- indulgence. Shame for wanting to capitalize on this moment, for exploiting it. Exploitation is complicated, and I believe its the cardinal sin of documentary. There is nothing more disappointing than a radio story which amounts to so much pointing and staring. I did the interview, collected sound, and sat on it for a few days. I told a friend the story about this man hitting golf balls as the World Trade Center collapsed, and he thought it was remarkable. I didn't tell him that I had recorded the man until I had convinced myself that I was not, in effect, pointing and staring. I got a Sony MR-70 minidisc recorder and a Shure SM-58 microphone this summer and recorded a total of 3 minutes 37 seconds of me walking around my house, flushing toilets, opening and closing doors, and unloading the silverware tray from the dishwasher. I couldn't bear to speak into the mic, or to hear my own voice played back, and I put the equipment in a bag under my bed. I took it back out on September 11, and this was the result.
Golfers constantly debate whether to play a high-end, premium-priced ball or a more standard one. Some spheres are best with fast swings, while other balls benefit slower ones. There are balls that spin like a ballerina and ones that twist more like your Aunt Betty. Which orb is right for you?OUR TESTOur exclusive research partner, Hot Stix Golf, robot-tested two ball types a three-piece construction with urethane cover, and a performance two-piece to highlight differences in launch angle, spin rate and, ultimately, performance. Hot Stix used a 460cc titanium driver, 9.5° loft, and a cavityback 6-iron. We tested the driver at four clubhead speeds (60, 80, 100 and 120 mph) and the 6-iron at three speeds (60, 80 and 100 mph). Plots show launch and spin values across the designated swing speeds. Your swing may produce different results (be sure to conduct your own on-course evaluation).
FindingOn average, the premium three-piece ball launches lower (blue bar) and spins roughly 200 rpm more off the driver. The three-piece ball also launches lower with a 6-iron (green bar) and produces 400 rpm more backspin. Differences between ball types are likely due to the two-piece ball sliding up the face prior to fully engaging it (higher launch with less spin.) Thus, a lower-spinning ball could help golfers who slice or hook it. Distance-challenged golfers can also benefit from higher launch and less spin. Specific patterns develop based on swing speed differences, too. Both ball types spin twice as fast off a driver at 120 mph swing speed than at 60 mph (and 50 percent more off the 6-iron at 100 mph than at 60 mph.)
