360 dimples – RB Tour; RB TourX
566 – RB 566; RB 566V
Nike
Nike no longer produces golf balls, but they still have a prominent place in the sport thanks to sponsorships with top players like Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy, Brooks Koepka, and Tony Finau. When Nike made balls, they made many of them, with 13 models ranging from 314 to 432 dimples per ball.

322 dimples – Pinnacle Rush
332 – Pinnacle Soft; Pinnacle Bling; Pinnacle Gold

Top Flite
One of the more recognizable names in the golf ball market, Top Flite, like Callaway, features the same number of dimples (332) across their line of models. That shouldn’t be surprising, though, as Callaway owned the Top Flite brand from 2003 to 2012.

Why Are There Dimples on a Golf Ball?
The next question you might ask is, ‘WHY are there dimples on a golf ball?’. The answer is both simple and complicated. The simple answer is that without dimples, a smooth golf ball would be more challenging to launch off the ground and fly with an irregular, impossible-to-control ball flight.
