Abstract
A golf ball has no great circles intersecting dimples. A method for manufacturing the golf ball uses the steps of molding the golf ball with a pair of semispherical molds having many dimple patterns formed on the inner surface thereof so as to form first dimples on the surface of the golf ball. Then a burr formed on the connecting portion between upper and lower molds is removed and dimples are subsequently formed and/or corrected on the connecting portion.
