Abstract
A golf ball (20) approaching zero land area is disclosed herein with a plurality of multi-faceted polygons and each of the plurality of multi-faceted polygons has a protrusion extending outward from a surface of the multi-faceted polygon. The golf ball (20) has an innersphere with a plurality of lattice members (40). Each of the plurality of lattice members (40) has an apex and the golf ball (20) of the present invention conforms with the 1.68 inches requirement for USGA-approved golf balls.
