The player:
Current gamer - Titleist Pro V1 Yellow
Handicap or Ave score - 3.9
7 iron carry distance with current ball - 155y
Trajectory - high
Putter - Taylor Made/Spider X Chalk/Pure Roll insert - I would consider it a medium insert
The ball:
Snell MTBx - Yellow 2020
Distance - Similar
Trajectory - high (similar here as well, I hit the ball high)
Spin - hop & stop (this is a bit different from the Pro V1, which seems to spin a little more, especially in the summer)
Feel - I would call it a Firm with soft feel similar to Pro V1
Durability (1 round) - this is a tough one because I spin the ball. Most of the time I would say like new, but some times I can scuff the yellow paint just a little. Nothing that I feel would affect ball flight.
Rating - Gamer
Notes or writeup:
I really like the Snell MTBx and gamed it all summer in 2019 and most of 2020. I like to play the yellow ball in the winter, just because it is easy for me to see. I usually play the white version in the summer. There are some differences in the stamping between the white and yellow with the Snell MTBx. The White seems to hold up a little better. I don't have any empirical evidence, but I felt like the white ball went a little further. I went back to the Pro V1 in the middle of 2020, just because I didn't want to buy 3 dozen at a time and I was trying out AVX, TP5, Z-Star and new Chrom Soft as well. There is a good chance I will go back to Snell when I finish off my current stock.
