Wow. Every source I checked had a different answer, ranging from 336 (several said that was 'standard' for American golf balls), to 500 (a company was advertising its new ball with 500 dimples). One source said that Titlist 382 and Titlist 384 were the most popular (i.e. 382 or 384 dimples).

Most golf balls on sale today have about 300 - 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 the market is a ball with 333 dimples, called the Srixon AD333.
