  1. Most balls on sale today have about 300 to 450 dimples.

    There were a few balls having over 500 dimples before. The record holder was a ball with 1,070 dimples -- 414 larger ones (in four different sizes) and 656 pinhead-sized ones. All brands of balls, except one, have even-numbered dimples. The only odd-numbered ball on market is a ball with 333 dimples.

    Officially sanctioned balls are designed to be as symmetrical as possible. There was a ball that had six rows of normal dimples on its equator, and very shallow dimples elsewhere. This asymmetrical design helps the ball self-adjust its spin-axis during the flight. The USGA did not sanction it and changed the rules to ban aerodynamic asymmetrical balls. The ball supplier sued the USGA and the USGA paid U.S. $1.375 million in an out of court settlement.

  3. Golf ball dimples range from 330 to 500 - but ideal golf balls have between 380 to 432. All but one brand on the market today are even numbered (the "odd" ball has 333). There was one ball that had 1070 dimples, "414 larger ones (in four different sizes) and 656 pinhead-sized ones." It was designed for a world record entry.

    edit-

    it usually has anywhere from 330 to 500 depending on which company designs the ball
