    Abstract: A golf ball is provided with a dimple pattern comprising two substantially identical elongated dimple pattern elements which fit together to form the complete dimple pattern. The dimple pattern can contain 344 dimples covering about 70.4% of the golf ball surface or 392 dimples covering about 73.3%, or other combinations of dimple count and coverage. The sizes of the dimples can be varied among either four distinct dimple sizes ranging from about 0.14 inches to about 0.17 inches or eight distinct dimple sizes ranging from about 0.11 inches to about 0.175 inches, or other dimple size combinations. The arrangement of dimples on the golf ball can be divided into a plurality of triangles having identical dimple arrangements with bilateral symmetry.
