The main purpose of this invention was to design a new dimple pattern that was not a modified icosahedron and gave good symmetrical flight performance. The Top Flite golf ball had excellent durability and the new Surlyn cover did not crack when exposed to cold temperatures.

Next time we will report our results on additional Spalding US dimple pattern patents and how these an be used to obtain the date of introduction of Spalding golf balls in the 1980’s.
