2018 Official Forum Member Review - Snell MTB Black & Red


hckymeyer

Recommended Posts

Very excited to see everyone's stage 2 and just how different or similar the Red and Black are

The weather has kinda cooperated this week.  Got an afternoon tee time today and might play Tursday as well.  Im play alone today so I can compare the MTB Black vs. Bridgestone E6.  Looking forward to the input I get from it

Looks like you guys are working on these at a good time. MGS just released the Snell vs ProV results. At first glance, it seems like ProV is still winning as you start to get closer to the green.

Definitely want to hear your take on the Black. I'm about 1/2 done testing the Red.

I was selected to test out the Snell MTB Black golf ball and asked to give it a thorough thrashing around the golf course and write up my thoughts so that others can have something fun and entertaining to read on the mygolfspy.com forum. I will say I gave it a thrashing and hopefully you all will enjoy reading about my experiences as well as how it compares to my current gamer.

 

 

attachicon.gifSnell_Box.JPG

What Snell claims on the website about the MTB Black:

  • 3-piece construction with 360 dimple pattern
  • Urethane cover providing short game control, excellent feel and durability
  • A NEW 7% lower Compression Core maximizing distances by lowering spin off the Driver
Driver Distance - Very Long

Driver Spin - Reduced from original MTB

Driver Feel - Slightly softer

Long Iron Distance - Longer

Long Iron Feel - Slightly Softer

Mid & Short Iron Spin - Same as original MTB

Short Game Feel - Soft Feel

 

attachicon.gifLayers.jpg

Now I can say straight away that there is no way I'm going to be able to test a 7% difference in compression rating but I will test how the spin rates and distances compare to the ball I use most, the Srixon ZStar. I played the ZStar XV for many years but have slowly gravitated to the regular ZStar due to the softer feel.

 

I was disappointed right away when I found out the MTB Black was not available in yellow as yellow has been my preferred ball color since Srixon started making the ZStar in yellow back in 2010.

 

attachicon.gifNoYellowGB.jpg

Moving on, a little about me. I currently play in and around the Nashville, TN area and if there is anyone around this area reading this than you know how much rain we have received over the last few months. Lots of courses have been flooded and continue to stay very soft and muddy. Playing lately has been like hitting shots off of a wet sponge.

 

attachicon.gifSpongeBob_(5).png

I've been playing golf since I was 14 years old and am now 35 so around 21 years now. Some other fun facts about me:

  • I've been a club-maker since I was 15 years old. I was trained at Dynacraft Golf (now Hireko Golf) because Golfsmith wouldn't let me attend its training school because I was too young.
  • I played golf for my high school team but not in college.
  • I worked in golf stores and golf courses in my younger days including Carolina Custom Golf (now Continental Golf). You may be familiar with Continental Golf due to the amazing club re-finishing work they do.
  • I maintain a handicap between 1-3 year round.
  • Both of my Grandfathers as well as my Mom and Dad all played/play golf.
  • I'm probably the biggest golf equipment enthusiast on the planet (that isn't employed by the golf industry). I wouldn't call myself a club “ho” but would say it's more like a man with many, many wives and I take good care of them all.

attachicon.giffamily_1832210b.jpg

Due to my club-making and love for equipment my bag is in a constant state of flux and I've recently caught the bug of JDM equipment and have been giving a lot of JDM drivers a try. I love to build and experiment and at the time of me writing this review my bag contained the following:

  • Driver: Callaway Rogue Sub Zero 9* w/ Aldila Synergy 60 Stiff (Swing Speed 100-105mph). I play a different driver almost every time I play because I LOVE drivers!
  • 3 wood: Taylormade M2 Tour 15 * w/ Mitsubishi Diamama Kai'li 60 Stiff
  • 5 wood: Taylormade 300 Tour “Duffy” smooth top w/ UST Irod Stiff
  • 4 Hybrid: Taylormade Rescue 11 23* w/ Aldila RIP 85 Stiff
  • Irons 5-GW: PXG 0311 w/ KBS Tour Stiff
  • SW 55* & LW 59*: Ping Glide 2.0 w/ stock shafts.
  • Putter: So many putters…Xenon Golf (made here in Nashville) brass mallet or PXG Bat Attack
  • Ball: Srixon ZStar Yellow
Everyone I play with says I have a very smooth tempo swing and never look like I'm swinging very hard. My ball flight is usually pretty straight with not too many misses either right or left. I do fight getting too steep sometimes and will hit a hard over-the-top hook every now and then. My very consistent ballstriking is definitely my strength as well as chipping. My putting can be streaky but has improved a lot this winter and when I'm putting well I will put up pretty good scores.

 

Now that you know more about me than you probably care to, on to the review of the MTB Black in the next stage. I never got around to trying the first MTB ball so I'm really looking forward to this test. The ZStar has been my egg (or Easter egg since its yellow) through all these years so it will take a lot to unseat it. I'm hoping the claims of lower driver spin, lower ball flight and soft feel live up because that is exactly what I'm looking for when I play.

 

Boring Black Box. Glad these aren't sold in stores because it doesn't draw much attention to itself

 

 

attachicon.gifKit.jpg

Yep, it's a white golf ball…

Testing & more to come in Stage 2!

Looking forward to stage 2. Pictures didn't show up for me, though.

Weather is supposed to be mid 70's on Friday. Taking the day off to play with the MTB Reds. It's about time spring actually sprung.

Oh man what a lovely afternoon. Got to play 7 practice holes with my Reds. Put the OGMTB up against it a bit. Course was to crowded to sit and hit a series of shots with each type ball but I have some insights and comparisons I am noting for my write up.

Played 9 after work. Bad picture framing but I was trying to get the MGS tee in the shot and the sun was beating on my neck already.

 

Good ball, feels very similar to the Z Star I just tried last week. Little softer feeling than the Tour B XS, but my extra-early preliminary results are this is a ball I could game. Hit a wedge into a green from 111 that was a good 10+ yards uphill and I was surprised to see it pin high about 8' right of the hole, thought for sure it wasn't holding. I'll try the red next round.

Got out to play 9 yesterday. Hoping to get in 18 today after work. Interesting stuff coming from this ball. I have a positive combination of things coming into play (Lessons and new clubs), but I am enjoying it and look forward to putting it through it's paces more when the weather gets better.

In regards to the Black...so far so good. Trees and cart paths have been tested

Gotten about 54 holes in with the Black and definitely some interesting early results coming. Hoping to get some warmer and firmer conditions when I play Crosswater in a week and a half

I've gotten a bit more holes than u in (FL) and yes the RED. Hoping to catch some dryer conditions tomorrow & Monday.

Great job on the stage 1s! How's the durability of the balls, say if you hit a tree(s)? Just wondering... For a friend

Red seems to be just fine as far as durability goes. However, in my play yesterday I got a weird unremovable mark on my ball. I am not sure what it was from as I way killing the fairways and not taking any short iron full swings that can sometimes cause these type of rashes. I'll post an image later.

First impression after playing nine and chipping for a couple hours: Very impressed. This ball will stop! You'll have to read stage 2 for more details.

I took a quick video of a ball I played for 18 holes yesterday. It's about a minute long and I'll be putting it in my Stage 2 review. I shot 76 and definitely gave this ball some durability tests...
