Abstract: Golf balls having one or more marks for improving the detection and tracking thereof by radar systems and methods of applying the marks to the golf balls are provided. The methods of the present disclosure involve applying the radar detectable marks to a layer of the golf ball by pad printing. The methods described herein utilize a plurality of pad printing stations having multi-impact capabilities and reorientation mechanisms to apply the radar detectable marks to the golf ball layer. The use of the multi-impact pad printers combined with the rotational capabilities of the reorientation mechanisms enables precise delivery of the radar detectable marks in a consistent and repeatable manner over the entire surface of the golf ball layer and multi-pole printing within a wide print area on the golf ball layer.
