Abstract
A golf ball comprising a substantially spherical outer surface and a plurality of dimples formed thereon is provided. To pack the dimples on the outer surface, the outer surface is first divided into Euclidean geometry based shapes. These Euclidean portions are then mapped with an L-system generated pattern. The dimples are then arranged within the Euclidean portions according to the L-system generated pattern.
