  15. The yellow is great for seeing it in the air. I really don’t think the yellow is any better in the rough though. I struggle putting and chipping with the yellow also. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. I got lucky with work and family life the past month, so I got about 12 rounds in and a lot of practice in with these. I don’t really know what I can or can’t say until stage 2? Any questions I’ll be sure to answer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. I started my testing on a three hole practice loop that has two par 4 and a par 3. I tested them against the Pro V1x, TP5 Pix, TP5x, Callaway CS, and CSX. My short game is the best part of my game and I practice that the most. So I did a lot of 70 yards and in testing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. Stage 2 Snell MTB-x (Yellow) Sorry this took so long! As mentioned before I got to play and test this ball a lot. I tested it against the Pro V1x, TP5, TP5x, CS, and CSX. I tested on the 3 hole loop (3 holes that play just like my home course) and the course. Looks and Durability (15 out of 15) Great looking bright yellow and the durability was outstanding. One great thing about yellow balls is, I believe they hold up better or at least hide the scuffs better. Sound & Feel (10 out of 15) The sound and feel was a little hard for my liking. it was way too clicky off the putter and wedges for me. Sounded and felt great off the woods, very power full. On-Course Performance (20 out of 40) Off the tee - I found it harder to turn over more than the others I tested. So that's not a bad thing if you want to go straight. It's long but not longer than the others, it was the shortest out of all the balls I tested. Approach - it has a nice high ball flight that just wants to go straight. It definitely doest have the stopping power of the others. Ball flight - is one of the highest so I was expecting it to have more stopping power. The ball was very inconsistent when chipping and pitching. The wind effected it a lot more than I was expecting. Around the greens - as mentioned before this ball gave me very little confidence around the green to play my best golf. Putting - The alignment on side was great to line up the ball. This is the first time I ever put a yellow ball in play and I had a very hard time putting with it. It was just too hard off the putter for me. The ball would roll very nicely. Bottom line - The ball did not help my game. The yellow is easy to see, the alignment stamp is great, The flight was nice, but it just didn't do everything I need it to do. Miscellaneous (10 out of 10) I have no issues with this section. Shipping, customer service, packaging, and the product it self was great. Game Bag or Shag Bag (10 out of 20) I could not put this ball in tournament play. I can't play a ball that I can't trust to do what I need it to do. Chipping and pitch was tough the ones that should stop kept rolling out and the bump and runs would stop. I can deal with the straight high flight and it being shorter than the others, but around the green I need consistency. The yellow is great to see, but I could not game it. I had a hard time putting with the yellow ball. Conclusion I will not be gaming this ball. It's long and straight, but not the longest. Very durable and the yellow is very easy to track in the air. The alignment stamping is great if you use it to line up your putts. The worst part is the inconsistency around the greens. Final Score (65 out of 100)
  19. Placeholder Stage 1 First off I’d like too thank Rob, MyGolfSpy, and Snell for the opportunity. I test new balls every year, so now I have one more to throw in the mix. Here’s a little background on me and my game. I’ve been playing golf for about 24 years, I was late to the game. I’m self taught and never had a lesson. I got down to a 5 hcp about 5 years ago and now I’m hovering over 10. A couple times a year I’ll go see James at 2nd Swing to get fit and some new goodies. I’m a true club ho. The clubs have to be real game changers to stay in my bag. My home course in Minnesota is a Links style with long heavy rough. I need my golf ball to be long off the tee and not feel like a rock. I need a consistent ball around the greens. Either If l’m looking for it to bite or run out it better do just that. In all my testing every year a lot of the balls are pretty close in all categories. It just seems like the Pro V1x is just a little better. One ball might be longer, spin more, softer, harder, fights the wind better, or more durable. As I get older my SS (low 90’s) goes down. So I rely on my short game to save the day. I went with the yellow balls, because I’ve never played a yellow and they were free [emoji847] The yellow looks great and you can see it coming down is a big plus. My home course has a three hole practice loop that I do all my test before I bring them to the course. I love chipping, so these balls got a workout.
