Abstract
A golf ball dimple half profile is disclosed herein that can be defined by a piecewise function. The sub-functions that define the piecewise function can include, for example, a catenary function and a Gabriel's horn function. A transition between the sub-functions defining the piecewise function is smooth. The sub-functions can have opposing concavities, and at least one of the sub-functions can have a non-constant radius of curvature. The golf ball dimple half profile is rotated about the dimple's centroid to create the full dimple profile.
