Golf Ball Dimples
Dimples on golf balls are not simply there to give them their distinctive look. Without these imperfections, golf would be a whole lot harder than it already is! The dimples increase the balls’ distance when hit by creating a thin turbulent boundary layer of air that clings to the balls’ surface, allowing them to travel further while also reducing the amount of drag. Without them, a golf ball would not fly nearly as straightly or smoothly, even after being hit by the most winning drive.

Alcohol Bottles
If you have ever found yourself wondering why it is that alcohol bottles usually have longer necks in comparison to other drinks, you are likely not alone. These slender bottle necks make it far easier to pour the beverage into a glass, and they also allow heat distribution inside the bottle. Other than that, longer necks also help capture the sediments of the drink. And no, the long necks are not there to make using a beer bottle as a weapon far easier!
