New Snell Golf Balls in 2018

[ob18]

Dean, you might have to create "Get More" or "Got Some" 3 piece surlyn ball for ob18.

 

I am sure others wouldn't mind it. If not no big deal I have plenty of golf balls to use.

In a world of over-hype and under-deliver Snell seems just the opposite. Got my shipping confirmation yesterday..a day early, but early nonetheless. I am pumped to try these out!

[monks66]

Waiting on my shipping info....

I received trial pack today but we are in the midst of a storm. Putting on the carpet, both Red and Black feel firmer than the TP5, but with the O Works insert, that's not a bad thing. I like the yellow color of the Red. It will be some time before I get to test these outside.

 

I will say, I like the card that Snell includes telling the buyer to make their decision based on all shots from 150 and in. No other marketing nonsense. It's a refreshing change.

[Mathwiz]

Anxiously waiting for my trial pack to arrive. I'm sure they are going to send them because they charged my credit card on 1-18 for the amount.

 

UPDATE on 3/3...........Received a shipping email. This will be interesting deciding between the red or black.

[monks66]

my mtb blacks will be delivered next week, snell cust service gave me confirmation today

Hey Snell

 

Any update on when things are coming on the Canadian side of the border?

if the new ball has the right price, enough spin around green and/or (matte finish) color option, I am for it.

I know I'm a bit of a crank on this issue but with the performance, price point and now the yellow color option on MTB Red it's just hard for me to imagine what more someone could get out of a 3-piece Surlyn ball. At best, Dean might be clever enough to get somewhere in the general neighborhood of MTB performance for a few dollars less a dozen.

 

It's that hypothetical he posed here a few months back. How much spin and overall performance would you give up to save a dollar a ball (or whatever amount he proposed). The prevailing opinion was, if there's noticeably less spin and performance a few dollars won't matter.

After I discover Snell MTB, I stop looking into 3 piece surlyn balls. For the price and performance, it does not make sense to do so except TF Gamer Soft.

I could never understand why someone would hit a 3 piece surlyn covered ball? as opposed to a 3 piece urethane....just curious, no matter how good a golfer you are, urethane just has a better feel, thats just me

Gamersoft has a nice feel. Not much different than a urethane in the feel dept. Now, greenside spin is a different story.

Please recommend a Snell ball for me.

 

I have a swing speed of around 70. I’m not long, but am straight. I find that I don’t care for really soft balls off the putter, such as Callaway Supersoft. I would like to try a new MTB, but not sure if I should go with red or black.

 

Thanks

Received my order of Get Sum, nice thank you from Dean on invoice!

Black is softer, go with that. Check out You Tube, there are some reviews there. ;)

[monks66]

Got my MTB Blacks yesterday, what a ball..perfect feel with putter, chipped with them a little, stopped on a dime, granted it was wet, but still think it will stop well on dry grounds...def softer feel then the original MTB, not by much...great job Dean!!

[Kylemck]

has anyone tried snell and vice??/ what do you prefer ?

[monks66]

of course Snell, i tried the vice pro soft, and it just seemed like it was a little hard for my liking, again its all subjective, just my opinion, and unless you buy bulk , the vice isnt cheap...

I played my first round with my MTB reds on Friday and came away impressed. They were as long as anything out there off the longer clubs (driver, long irons, etc.) but had excellent spin off the shorter shots. They were very easy to control with my wedges. They also feel great when struck. I think I may have found my new gamer, which is good because I took the plunge and ordered 6 dozen without trying them figuring they would be perfect for me.

[hwturner17]

got my 6 dozen in Friday. 2 doz black, 2 dozen red, 2 dozen red OY. Loved them all. We were playing on really hard fast greens and they had no issues stopping. The optic yellow is a really appealing shade of yellow compared to others I've seen. Can't decide which one I like better, the Red or the Black. Can't go wrong!

Glad to hear the spin is working for you on the faster greens. .keep us posted on how your testing goes.. appreciate the feedback.

[Deuce78]

I'd like more comparisons to the prov1x, tp5x, and srixon xv please...

You'll learn a lot more by just ordering a test pack than what you will learn here. Too many variable's for a real comparison.

[BeerPerHole]

Will be following the evolution of the Get Sum. I am feeling the need to bomb the course and this has been a great weapon...

[Pawtucket]

What are the chances I could get a sample pack in Canada Dean? I've got a few dozen Vice Pro and Pro+, and some Nike RZN Tour Black, and ProV1s I'd like to compare them to.

[TheWalkingGolfer]

Split a test pack with a buddy and playing this weekend. Hoping to play both models on each hole this weekend since we are the first time on the tee sheet.
