    Ricardo,

    I haven't heard of a tutorial, but I think it would be easiest to,
    model a sphere using the revolve feature, create a sketch on the
    surface of the sphere that defines the pattern for the dimple with the
    spline on surface feature, then using a revolved cut, pattern this
    along the sketch to model the dimples. Golf balls are very complex
    though, and there are wierd ways of dimpling them, the dimpe pattern is
    not symetrical, and the spacing is not even.
