A question for the aero engineers on this great site. I am having a discussion with a mate about golf ball aerodynamics, and the use of dimples on the surface of the balls.
Can someone explain the effect the dimples have on the ball? Are they for spin, curve, distance, lift or something completely different? If you could support your explaination with a mathematical model, it would mean a beer for me
I love this site. Cheers!
