1. A solid golf ball having a plurality of dimples formed in its surface, characterized in that at least 70% of the entire dimples have a point of inflection at a position of 75 to 90% of their depth, wherein the depth is equal to a distance from a straight line segment connecting edges of the dimples to a deepest bottom of the dimples, and a proportion of a sum of dimple space volumes to a volume of the ball is 0.7 to 0.9%. 2. The solid golf ball of claim 1 having dimples of at least three types which are different in diameter and dimples of at least two types which are identical in diameter, but different in depth, wherein the total number of dimples is 360 to 540. 3. The solid golf ball of claim 1 comprising a solid core formed of a rubber composition to a diameter of 34 to 40 mm and a cover enclosing the core. 4. The solid golf ball of claim 3 wherein the cover has an inside cover of 1.0 to 2.0 mm thick and an outside cover of 1.0 to 2.0 mm thick, the outside cover formed of a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer. 5. The solid golf ball of claim 1, wherein said dimples having a point of inflection at a position of 75 to 90% of their depth are configured by joining a downwardly convex first dimple portion to a downwardly convex second dimple portion such that both the portions are smoothly connected at a joint. 6. The solid golf ball of claim 1, wherein the total number of dimples is at least 380. 7. The solid golf ball of claim 1, wherein the total number of dimples is at most 400. 8.
