I have a Haskell Bramble Golf ball dated April 11 1899 with the number 57 on the poles what is the origin of the number 57
The Foulis brothers took the 'Haskell ball' and remolded the outer shell with a bramble marking or pattern. The Haskell ball would tend to 'duck' because of it's outer surface. "and even Jim couldn t keep them from ducking to the ground just off the tee. " It was at that point they remolded the ball with the bramble pattern, the same as the gutta percha ball. "The brothers made quite a bit of money improving the Haskell and making the ball fly further. Besides reselling the Haskell, they also manufactured their own golf balls, calling them the American Eagle "
There isn't really a number of sides. Since a golf ball is a ball, there is no definite side.
Anywhere form 300-450 depending on your brand of ball.
Dimples. A brand name, ball type and number.
with the number of dimple
No.
432
An odd number of dimples would render the ball asymmetrical.
a golf ball weighs no more than 1.620 oz (45.93 grams), has a diameter not less than 1.680 in (42.67 mm)
In golf, the "foe" would be the number of strokes needed to get the ball into the hole. You're competing to see who can do that in the fewest number.
yes the golf score depends on the number of swings you take at the golf ball. A practice swing doesn't count. I would say a putt is somewhat considered a swing.
