Golf ball
First Claim
1. A golf ball having an equator line (E) is defined by three great circle-shaped compartment lines (L) formed by projecting the sides of a phantom inscribed regular octahedron, wherein the surface of the golf ball is comparted into eight spherical regular triangles (T1) to (T8), and dimples (1) being arranged over the surface of the golf ball, no great circle path which does not intersect the dimples (1) and none of the three comparting lines (L) being coincident with the equator line (E) which is coincident with the groat circle obtained by connecting middle points of sides of the spherical regular triangles (T1) to (T8), and no dimples (1) intersecting the equator line (E) centrally intersect the equator line (E) and the dimple pattern appearing along the parting line by rotation is not monoronous, and the parting line has a concave-convex shape, and the parting line is part from or coincident with a dimple edge.

Abstract
By three great circle-shaped compacting lines (L) formed by projecting the sides of an inscribed regular octahedron, a surface of a golf ball is compared into eight spherical regular triangles (T1) to (T8). A dimple (1) is arranged over the surface of the golf ball, and furthermore, there is no great circle path to be a great circle which does not intersect the dimple (1). Any of the three compacting lines (L) is not coincident with an equator line (E). The equator line (E) is coincident with a great circle obtained by connecting middle points of sides of the spherical regular triangles (T1) to (T8). Any dimple (1) intersecting the equator line (E) does not centrally intersect the equator line (E).
