Snell golf balls are great! I play every day and I'm able to play a Snell for 3 or 4 rounds because they are so durable. In the long run I save money over cheaper balls. I'm a 6 handicap and love the performance. After watching the video I moved by golf balls from the garage into the house - I wasn't aware heat would be an issue. Thanks for the info!
This was amazing! He just sold me on buying his golf balls. And, I learned more just now watching him than with anyone else. I really appreciated his take on high handicap and playing 3 or 4 piece golf ball. So helpful! Thank you Dean! I could sit and listen to you for hours!
used to play nothing but Prov 1 and 1x.. over the last year i've switched to playing Snell MTB and Vice Pros and love them both.. I love the small companies like Snell and their direct to consumer model.. Great Balls at a great price.
What an honest guy and he really knows his stuff.....I have tried the ball (MTB) and it is very good. His comments on ball selection were enlightening. Keep up the good work.
Thank you very much Dean for the valuable education on golf balls and its business. Much respect to you sir for your admirable effort to help us consumers save money and better our golf game. I will be playing both the MTB Reds and Blacks for sure. Here's to hoping for huge success and growth of your great company!
Good information Dean! I have been playing golf since I was 13 and I am currently a 1.9 hndcp, I recently played one of your MTB's that I found out of bounds at a local course here in north county San Diego. I liked the performance of it very much, I felt like it performed very much like the Pro V. I have been playing the TM TP5 for the last year and I like the distance off the tee, it truly is 10 to 15 yards longer on my solid drives. Having said that, I like the performance of the Pro V better from 100 yards in and I felt like the MTB I played was very similar to the Pro V so, good job! Once I heard you were involved in the design and development of the TM TP Red, I started to listen to you as that was the best golf ball I have ever played. I was so disappointed when TM discontinued that ball. I always told myself, "if I could ever find a ball that performed like that ball, I would use it exclusively." The TP5 is close but, now that I know you were involved with the design of the TP Red, I will order your golf balls and let you know how it goes... Thank you for putting this content out there! JM
It's great to meet another entreprenuer who values the quality and performance of their product versus focusing on making as much money as you can. Your assessment and discussion of ball design and performance and explaining the difference of pro expectations is outstanding. I applaud your candor and thank you for helping me better understand the what and why of golf ball contruction and what will work best for me, just an average golfer.
Well done Dean. This whole World is about profit & greed. The fools keep paying whatever is asked plus the add ons for booking etc nowadays. Good to see someone who isn't taking his customers to the cleaners. Great info and wish you much success.
Every new golfer should watch this video. A completely honest presentation from the most knowledgeable tech guy Ive ever heard. Everything he says makes sense and his frank, no nonsense style is a welcome change to the usual youtuber infomercial 'reviews' ypu see. Best golf ball video Ive swen..
That was the most honest video I have seen. I'll try it at least once just because he appears to be genuine and I agree with his philosophy. He answered the question about why Pros use Titleist so much in a later question, btw. Because money talks.
Thank you Mr. Snell. I'm now going to be loyal customer. Love this video. Great info. I'm going recommend your product. Again thank you. Keep up the great work.
Didn’t know much about Snell or golf balls in general but like many other low hcap sheeples I have pretty much played ProV1 and sometimes Prov1X for many years. I ho clubs so often having one constant is kinda necessary but once I finish tinkering with sticks....balls will definitely be next. Thank you Dean and MGS for an excellent insight into the ball industry. I would buy a ball from this guy for sure and I promise you Snell will be on my list. Also from 🇬🇧
Tour level golf balls from other companies are getting more commoditized as their performance is very similar if not the same as the Pro V1 like generic drugs vs. name brand. As a result, more and more golfers will buy one for the best value for their dollar. Snell's balls fit the bill.
Dean, you accomplished your goal of providing educational information. At least to me you did. I ordered 3 dozen Reds on Saturday, and this video is what pushed me over the edge. I look forward to making lots of birdies with a Snell golf ball. And who knows, maybe even a Hole in One.
Was just browsing & came across this video. Big respect for the honesty and knowledge of Mr. Snell! Will also definitely try these golf balls. Hope I find some here in India.
What a genuine guy he seems to be, bought some getsum in yellow for winter golf and I do use hand warmers in jacket pockets and switch balls every hole giving each 10 or so minutes to regain temp, this is something I've done the last few winters. The balls have behaved really well, better than the supersoft I played last winter, will be trying the MTB this season alongside my current truvis chromesoft off the back of the getsum results. Great video found by accident tbh.
I've been playing Snell MTB's now for a few months. These are excellent balls. My distance and feel around the green are as good, if not better, than with more expensive Titleist balls. I've shared a couple of MTB's with friends and they agree. Snell makes good balls (for less money).
Tried the comparison as suggested using various balls. Snell MTB was the best. I used to go through balls like water. No more a dozen lasts a few months. The ball issue is off the table. MTB is part of my arsenal..Thanks!
I am a die hard Pro V1 / V1X player - have played Titleist products for 30 years. Played some golf with my dad and he gave me a couple sleeves of the MTB. Felt a little softer, but performance was the same. Just purchased a 'test' pack - watch out Pro V1, I think with the $52 vs $32 price.....hmmmmmm
Thank you Mr. Snell for very frank and educating answers. I am 73 years old, my index is 6.2. In spite of working out every day I lost club speed and yardage in the last two years. I was under impression that I should play with low compression balls in order to compress them. I learned from your video that this is not the case. I can compress the same or better with a multilayered high compression golf ball as with a low compression one. Is this correct? Thanks
Thank you for doing this Dean. I knew the underlying cost/ marketing variable. And what I really gained most is the technology/construction/performance variable of golf balls in general. I haven't put dollars of my own for Premium priced balls but have received and played dozens for years. Everything you've put out here will affect any future purchase of golf balls I make. And the construction questions to ask about the effective ball in a ball fitting.
Never played a Snell ball. I live in NJ, so the off season right now. The straight up honesty from Dean, I’m going to snag some for next season. Seems like a guy/company I’d like to work for hah.
Doug Havens I have seen the Penta but never played it...have you? Is it a premium 3/4/5 piece urethane or more of a 2 piece surlyn ionomer distance type of ball? I don't know why but I have always thought of them as a run of the mill Titelist Velocity or a Callaway Warbird...appreciate any feedback/info you can provide!
Enjoyed that and the info about where the ball really matters inside 150 yards. Making sure I use a 3 piece now always preferred a softer ball for feel, have predominantly used second-hand balls due to costs and my inability to hold them for long. I can get around with one or two balls now so buying new balls is the go now and I'll give Snell a test.
Thanks so much for this. I wish I'd seen it a long time ago. It really explains a lot that I've been curious about. I've been playing one golf ball after another after another and I've never been happy unless I was playing a premium ball. Now I've found Snell. I started out trying the MTB Red. Really liked it. Then I tried the MTB Black and loved it even more. The flight and spin in the scoring areas, as well as the putting feel was great. AND NOW... The MTBX! WOW. I've got a Pro V 1/X at a decent price that even a high handicapper like me can play regularly and feel comfortable with.
I recently contacted Snell with a question and it was promptly answered. What I was unaware of was that it came from Dean himself. Fast response. My problem is that the shipping cost is expensive and puts Snell at almost par with PRoV and it’s competition. I definitely want to try these balls from Snell. From the reviews that I have read, they are an excellent alternative to the overpriced high end balls available here. Can’t wait to see these in Canada.
I have to apologize for the error made when referring to a contact made to Snell and a reply from Dean. My mistake, I was researching a totally different ball called “Seed”. After watching a review by the “Average Golfer”, I contacted Seed Golf and received an immediate response from Dean (Klatt) not Dean Snell. My error.
What a great interview. I've just bought my first Snell MTBs and I'm really impressed with them. Used them in a competition on Sunday. Played to three under my handicap and came second in the comp. Boring but true. I will most certainly be buying them in the future.
I found a Snell MBT-X on the course and played it for my last 4 holes. What a difference my drives were longer short game was better ball was checking up. putting was the same as my Srixon Q ball. I will be buying a couple dozen Snell MBT -X balls I loved the feel and sound.
Great video; one thing - I think the rules prohibit using anything artificial to warm the ball during the round. You can warm them beforehand. So, handwarmers in pocket with ball would be no-no, but you just put the ball in your pocket.
Just bought my test pak of Snell balls. Haven't had them out yet due to bak issues I'm having but I am sure looking forward to giving these balls a shot.
I wish I'd watched this before ordering the Get Sum ball. I only play occasionally and I'm 62 and slight build (except the middle bit!). I buy golf balls on price because I lose a few every time I play, but perhaps I should buy the type I can control better so I don't lose them! :) Really useful video and I will be back with some feedback when I play the Get Sum (Have played ChromeSoft previously so it will be interesting to see the difference)
I'll answer that question for Dean... Titleist ads say "The number one ball in golf", its because they pay the most tour players to play Titleist golf balls. Just like Taylormade's ad says "The number 1 driver on tour", its because they pay the most tour players to play the taylormade driver. I was a caddie on the PGA Tour in the mid-2000's and very few players had contracts that stipulated that everything in the bag including the ball had to be with their company. My player was a contracted Titleist guy carrying the titleist bag and his contract only required him to have 9 irons in the bag that were Titleist so he had 3-PW and Driver in Titleist. He had a separate contract to play the Titleist ball, he could have got $100,000 to put the Taylormade driver in the bag, but chose to stick with the Titleist. He had a Nickent hybrid, Ping 3 wood, and Callaway wedges. Of course he had Titleist headcovers on the hybrid and 3wd.
What a tremedously informative video - I've shared it with my club pro in the UK. I'm the only person at my club that plays them in the NW of the UK, and I'm always being asked about them by other players, so I wonder if that lead to any sales ;-)
What do you think of making a golf ball with surface "rails" on it in a X pattern circumventing the ball? The rail would be a small width of smooth, dimple less, surface; not only could be used with driver & putter for alignment purposes, but also increase even surface contact for better roll.
I was given one of your balls by a friend. Very impressed, love the feel spin and distance. Goodbye titleist. Hello snell. Just as a tiny point of note, not a very good logo. Sorry mr snell. However, love your product and I will be ordering them from now on. Best wishes for the future
Great Video! I personally play Chrome Soft, only because they are cheaper than the other premium products, nothing to do with performance. I believe that all the Premium balls do fairly close to the exact same things. I will definately be looking into these balls. I have seen Mark Crossfield, and Rick Sheils do reviews on this ball, and they were both impressed.
Which of your balls do you recommend for a senior who is loosing distance & has slow swing speed ?It is difficult to tell from your package which balls is best for slower swing balls Excellent video!
Damn!! I found a couple Snell balls on the course the other week and threw them back because I had never heard of them... Well now I guess I will be looking for them. All my money goes to play golf not buy golf balls.. :(
He needs to do regular videos..I promise if more people heard and seen him they would double their sales. He needs to go do press lol I could listen to him all day long
Wow, Dean! Awesome stuff about golf balls in general, and Snell balls in particular. I'm already 'all in' with Snell. I've been playing the MTB since its introduction (just got a new case recently). I have the hat and the bag, too. So.... I'm looking forward to the new MTB. I doubt I'll order it until my current supply is exhausted, but then I'll eagerly order 6 boxes. But.... What I really want to know is where do we buy the shirts? The shirts for sale on the site have the logo on the sleeve, but yours has it above the left breast. Plus, IT"S SOLD OUT! C'mon, Dean. I'm a converted zealot! I want to rock the gear! The MTB is great for me. I hit it a good ways, but I spin the driver too much. I'm switching to a low-spinning driver--the Titleist 917 D3. I'm relieved to see my choice of ball is compatible with that objective.
A great video from someone who obviously knows what he's talking about. I was a Pro v snob for decades and am now looking forward to trying out the MTBs. PS if you ever need someone to do some testing round the St Andrews courses I am available and I work cheap.
Very informative. I wonder though if the big brand companies can afford to invest relatively more into R&D and thereby usually are the innovation leaders, allowing the smaller manufacturers to kind of piggy-back and on their designs. I've never seen a Snell ball here in Europe, but if I had a chance I would definitely give them a tryout. Currently playing the Srixon Z-Star which is also a bit cheaper than the Titleist, TM and such.
Really appreciate the level of information and candor provided in this video. I was going to contact Snell to ask for a sleeve of these balls just to try. After watching this video I’m just going to head to Wal-Mart and see if I can find a box of MTB’s. I love seeing this level of communication from product experts and want to support these types of companies. Thanks Snell...I look forward to comparing the MTB to my ProV1x’s
Years ago I would only play titleist then golf balls changed alot and I preferred and still do prefer the srixon after seeing the mtb-x tests I am really intrigued to try these
I've always played Pro V1 and recently I bought the test pack from Snell that gives two sleeves each of the MTB Black and the MTB X and I can definitely say there is so little difference between the Pro V1 and the Black that it's insane lol. Literally the only difference I could find is that the Black and X felt a little firmer than the Pro V1 when putting. That being said I didn't really look at that as a negative trait. I'd definitely recommend testing them out!
Very educational, I learned a lot. However I'm confused about only adding 8 inches with 1extra mph ball speed but if you want 10-15 more yards then you need to add 5-6 mph ball speed.
Thank you for some great information on golf balls which I never knew, it is hard too find Snell golf balls here in Australia. I will definitely try them when I can find some
I'm a proud customer -- love the Snell Ball. Just bought 5 dozen. Would love to get a dozen of American Flagged version but my wife will divorce me if I spend any more on golf balls.
Dean back in the mid 1980s Peter Thomson joined the senior tour and won like 7 or 9 tournaments that year. As you may know he was a five time open champion. That being said in that year that he won all those tournaments (1985) or approx that year; he played a Dunlop ball that flew very very low. No real good carry according to him. But it was noticeably low in flight even watching it on tv. The next year Dunlop stopped making it. Have you any ideas on what model that ball was or some if it’s spin rates or any info about it? I would love to try and hit a ball that flys very low. According to him it was great for his game. Other pros were stealing then from his bag. I saw this in an interview. I Romberg him hitting a very low ball then but I thought it was just his swing. Turns out it was the ball he was using!
I learned more in this video about the ball then I ever have in 17 years of playing golf
"You've added 8 inches. Congrats. You've still gotta finish the hole."
Plenty of helpful information, much appreciated.
Dean Snell just talked me into buying MTB balls. Thanks for the honesty.
Snell golf balls are great! I play every day and I'm able to play a Snell for 3 or 4 rounds because they are so durable. In the long run I save money over cheaper balls. I'm a 6 handicap and love the performance.
After watching the video I moved by golf balls from the garage into the house - I wasn't aware heat would be an issue. Thanks for the info!
This was amazing! He just sold me on buying his golf balls. And, I learned more just now watching him than with anyone else. I really appreciated his take on high handicap and playing 3 or 4 piece golf ball. So helpful! Thank you Dean! I could sit and listen to you for hours!
Mr Snell your candour is heart warming, the technical information simple to understand and I like simple.
used to play nothing but Prov 1 and 1x.. over the last year i've switched to playing Snell MTB and Vice Pros and love them both.. I love the small companies like Snell and their direct to consumer model.. Great Balls at a great price.
I want to buy Snell just because of this guy! What an honest and real dude.
What an honest guy and he really knows his stuff.....I have tried the ball (MTB) and it is very good. His comments on ball selection were enlightening. Keep up the good work.
Google who this is. Dean Snell invented the ProV1 when he worked for Titleist. His name is on the ProV1 patent.
Thank you. Mr. Snell, for taking the time to provide golfers with so informative a video.
Thank you very much Dean for the valuable education on golf balls and its business. Much respect to you sir for your admirable effort to help us consumers save money and better our golf game. I will be playing both the MTB Reds and Blacks for sure. Here's to hoping for huge success and growth of your great company!
Good information Dean! I have been playing golf since I was 13 and I am currently a 1.9 hndcp, I recently played one of your MTB's that I found out of bounds at a local course here in north county San Diego. I liked the performance of it very much, I felt like it performed very much like the Pro V.

It's great to meet another entreprenuer who values the quality and performance of their product versus focusing on making as much money as you can.
Your assessment and discussion of ball design and performance and explaining the difference of pro expectations is outstanding. I applaud your candor and thank you for helping me better understand the what and why of golf ball contruction and what will work best for me, just an average golfer.
Well done Dean. This whole World is about profit & greed. The fools keep paying whatever is asked plus the add ons for booking etc nowadays. Good to see someone who isn't taking his customers to the cleaners. Great info and wish you much success.
Every new golfer should watch this video. A completely honest presentation from the most knowledgeable tech guy Ive ever heard. Everything he says makes sense and his frank, no nonsense style is a welcome change to the usual youtuber infomercial 'reviews' ypu see. Best golf ball video Ive swen..

Didn’t know much about Snell or golf balls in general but like many other low hcap sheeples I have pretty much played ProV1 and sometimes Prov1X for many years. I ho clubs so often having one constant is kinda necessary but once I finish tinkering with sticks....balls will definitely be next.
Thank you Dean and MGS for an excellent insight into the ball industry. I would buy a ball from this guy for sure and I promise you Snell will be on my list.
Also from 🇬🇧
Tour level golf balls from other companies are getting more commoditized as their performance is very similar if not the same as the Pro V1 like generic drugs vs. name brand. As a result, more and more golfers will buy one for the best value for their dollar. Snell's balls fit the bill.

Man, that was informative. Thanks! Been using your MTB ball for over a year now. Now I have a deeper understanding as to why. Love the product!
What a genuine guy he seems to be, bought some getsum in yellow for winter golf and I do use hand warmers in jacket pockets and switch balls every hole giving each 10 or so minutes to regain temp, this is something I've done the last few winters.
The balls have behaved really well, better than the supersoft I played last winter, will be trying the MTB this season alongside my current truvis chromesoft off the back of the getsum results.
Great video found by accident tbh.
MTB is my new ball. Price is unbelievable for a ball that performs identical to a Pro V. I bought these last summer and am sold on them.
Josh Leech Ditto

I actually now understand something about balls. Thanks.
absolutely enlightening! This guy explains things very well and de-bunks common myths about low compression balls. Looks I'm gonna try some Snells!
Made my first hole-in-one in November 2021 with a Snell MTB Black. Love it.
Cool ! I'm a fan of niche businesses. I'm also a fan of those who know what they do best and build on it. I'll be striking Snell in the near future
Good stuff, thnks Dean and Mygolfspy. Best of luck!
I really enjoyed this video and the honesty of Dean. I’ll certainly be looking at Snell balls going forward.

They are great balls.
Zach rgfcbb y6
He was behind the ProV1 so you can trust him
...and Penta and TP5
Doug Havens I have seen the Penta but never played it...have you? Is it a premium 3/4/5 piece urethane or more of a 2 piece surlyn ionomer distance type of ball? I don't know why but I have always thought of them as a run of the mill Titelist Velocity or a Callaway Warbird...appreciate any feedback/info you can provide!

Really like Mr. Snell. Honest, straight forward. Will be purchasing from Snell Golf.
Learned a lot from this video, and am anxious to try them out as soon as I lose the balls I stocked up on this spring. Should be another week or so.
I learned a lot from this video. Thanks for sharing. I'm going to order and try these Snell balls.
Bill in 🇨🇦. Please keep your promise to us. And for one I will. Never change

Richard Croft Shinebox Lifestyle Brands are now distributing Snell Golf in Canada. Look for them in the Spring at a golf shop near you.
I have to apologize for the error made when referring to a contact made to Snell and a reply from Dean. My mistake, I was researching a totally different ball called “Seed”. After watching a review by the “Average Golfer”, I contacted Seed Golf and received an immediate response from Dean (Klatt) not Dean Snell. My error.
Great video. I sat in on one of your seminars a couple of years ago in Toronto, I found it very enlightening.

great video refreshing to hear no BS just honest answers just ordered MTB Black
I found a Snell MBT-X on the course and played it for my last 4 holes. What a difference my drives were longer short game was better ball was checking up. putting was the same as my Srixon Q ball. I will be buying a couple dozen Snell MBT -X balls I loved the feel and sound.
Currently on sale, probably why this video came up in my recommended. 5 doz for 99.
I thought it was an exceptional explanation of golf ball technology. Just ordered 2 dozen!
John Knudson Get 5 next time, get a discount! 😉
Great video; one thing - I think the rules prohibit using anything artificial to warm the ball during the round. You can warm them beforehand. So, handwarmers in pocket with ball would be no-no, but you just put the ball in your pocket.
Just bought my test pak of Snell balls. Haven't had them out yet due to bak issues I'm having but I am sure looking forward to giving these balls a shot.
The pros play titleist because they are PAID to play it.
Yes "Free" premium golf ball and getting paid to use it! wish I had a deal like that LOL~
And its free!
except brooks ;)
I wish I'd watched this before ordering the Get Sum ball. I only play occasionally and I'm 62 and slight build (except the middle bit!). I buy golf balls on price because I lose a few every time I play, but perhaps I should buy the type I can control better so I don't lose them! :) Really useful video and I will be back with some feedback when I play the Get Sum (Have played ChromeSoft previously so it will be interesting to see the difference)
I'm sold!!! Just order MTB Black for the 2022 Season!!! Can't wait...
I'll answer that question for Dean... Titleist ads say "The number one ball in golf", its because they pay the most tour players to play Titleist golf balls. Just like Taylormade's ad says "The number 1 driver on tour", its because they pay the most tour players to play the taylormade driver. I was a caddie on the PGA Tour in the mid-2000's and very few players had contracts that stipulated that everything in the bag including the ball had to be with their company.

He had a separate contract to play the Titleist ball, he could have got $100,000 to put the Taylormade driver in the bag, but chose to stick with the Titleist. He had a Nickent hybrid, Ping 3 wood, and Callaway wedges. Of course he had Titleist headcovers on the hybrid and 3wd.
Thanks for the explanation 👍
Thank you Dean Snelll and mygolfspy, truly great information, thanks
What a tremedously informative video - I've shared it with my club pro in the UK. I'm the only person at my club that plays them in the NW of the UK, and I'm always being asked about them by other players, so I wonder if that lead to any sales ;-)
Hi 3DGvisuals ... I agree great video . Where about in North West are you ? I am in Wigan . Which Snell do you play ? Cheers Kris
kris green I'm in Bolton and use the MTB, it's pretty darn perfect
I am going to get a box and give them a try . Do you play old links ?
3DG Designs - I’ve converted many of my friends at our course. GREAT BALL!!!!
What do you think of making a golf ball with surface "rails" on it in a X pattern circumventing the ball? The rail would be a small width of smooth, dimple less, surface; not only could be used with driver & putter for alignment purposes, but also increase even surface contact for better roll.
MTB RED is just absolutely remarkable .... long drives with low-medium spin and the short game is magical to control ;)
I was given one of your balls by a friend. Very impressed, love the feel spin and distance. Goodbye titleist. Hello snell. Just as a tiny point of note, not a very good logo. Sorry mr snell. However, love your product and I will be ordering them from now on. Best wishes for the future
Never heard anyone talk about golf balls like Dean Snell. I will buy Snell golf balls!
Great Video! I personally play Chrome Soft, only because they are cheaper than the other premium products, nothing to do with performance. I believe that all the Premium balls do fairly close to the exact same things. I will definately be looking into these balls. I have seen Mark Crossfield, and Rick Sheils do reviews on this ball, and they were both impressed.
Most honest man in golf
Best video ever! Now I'm very interested in trying the Snell balls.
Which of your balls do you recommend for a senior who is loosing distance & has slow swing speed ?It is difficult to tell from your package which balls is best for slower swing balls Excellent video!
AWESOME VIDEO thank you Dean wealth of knowledge
Damn!! I found a couple Snell balls on the course the other week and threw them back because I had never heard of them... Well now I guess I will be looking for them. All my money goes to play golf not buy golf balls.. :(
I’ve got them you have them for $40 😜
I feel like i should offer this guy my wife, or a kid or something.... thanks sir.
Nice to hear some honesty, instead of a pr/marketing bs.
He needs to do regular videos..I promise if more people heard and seen him they would double their sales. He needs to go do press lol I could listen to him all day long
Snells on my radar. New golfer fiddling with Callaway Chrome Softs right now but interesting info and interested in Snells coming up.
I'm in. New customer here. Referred by TXG fitters.
Wow, Dean! Awesome stuff about golf balls in general, and Snell balls in particular. I'm already 'all in' with Snell. I've been playing the MTB since its introduction (just got a new case recently). I have the hat and the bag, too. So....
I'm looking forward to the new MTB. I doubt I'll order it until my current supply is exhausted, but then I'll eagerly order 6 boxes. But....
What I really want to know is where do we buy the shirts? The shirts for sale on the site have the logo on the sleeve, but yours has it above the left breast. Plus, IT"S SOLD OUT!
C'mon, Dean. I'm a converted zealot! I want to rock the gear!
The MTB is great for me. I hit it a good ways, but I spin the driver too much. I'm switching to a low-spinning driver--the Titleist 917 D3. I'm relieved to see my choice of ball is compatible with that objective.
wow...an "insider" telling us the real truth Thanks for the video
Big fan Dean, love your MTB-X
It would be great if staff actually replied to emails, that would be a good start.
So honest & genuine guy. Seriously 32 thumbs down. WOW. Well done Snell golf balls.
from 32 other golf ball manufactures...
This is what happens when you know your Sh@t...Thanks for the knowledge and education!
I bought six dozen. going to give them a run in 2019
Excellent work.. I will have to try a dozen..
A great video from someone who obviously knows what he's talking about. I was a Pro v snob for decades and am now looking forward to trying out the MTBs. PS if you ever need someone to do some testing round the St Andrews courses I am available and I work cheap.
T B C - I converted 6 months ago. IMO, it’s just as good, if not better....
No plans of ever going back
Very informative. I wonder though if the big brand companies can afford to invest relatively more into R&D and thereby usually are the innovation leaders, allowing the smaller manufacturers to kind of piggy-back and on their designs. I've never seen a Snell ball here in Europe, but if I had a chance I would definitely give them a tryout. Currently playing the Srixon Z-Star which is also a bit cheaper than the Titleist, TM and such.
Enjoyable and informative. Thanks.
Really appreciate the level of information and candor provided in this video. I was going to contact Snell to ask for a sleeve of these balls just to try. After watching this video I’m just going to head to Wal-Mart and see if I can find a box of MTB’s. I love seeing this level of communication from product experts and want to support these types of companies. Thanks Snell...I look forward to comparing the MTB to my ProV1x’s
Years ago I would only play titleist then golf balls changed alot and I preferred and still do prefer the srixon after seeing the mtb-x tests I am really intrigued to try these
I've always played Pro V1 and recently I bought the test pack from Snell that gives two sleeves each of the MTB Black and the MTB X and I can definitely say there is so little difference between the Pro V1 and the Black that it's insane lol. Literally the only difference I could find is that the Black and X felt a little firmer than the Pro V1 when putting. That being said I didn't really look at that as a negative trait. I'd definitely recommend testing them out!
Very educational, I learned a lot. However I'm confused about only adding 8 inches with 1extra mph ball speed but if you want 10-15 more yards then you need to add 5-6 mph ball speed.
I thought that... that would make a 115mph swing = 25.5 yards lol.
Or does he mean you would get 8inchs extra per mph on a low compression ball?
Great video, Mr. Snell knows his stuff, buy Snell golf balls.
I definitely will be playing Snell golf balls now after watching this
Thank you for some great information on golf balls which I never knew, it is hard too find Snell golf balls here in Australia. I will definitely try them when I can find some
Order them online at www.snellgolf.com. Great deals with tiered pricing!!!
I plan on getting some mtb x. I love the tripple track CS X LS
I'm a proud customer -- love the Snell Ball. Just bought 5 dozen. Would love to get a dozen of American Flagged version but my wife will divorce me if I spend any more on golf balls.
This dude keeps it real af
I’d never heard of these before. May give them a go. 👍🏻
I bought these and out drove everyone when we all hit is solid.
Dean back in the mid 1980s Peter Thomson joined the senior tour and won like 7 or 9 tournaments that year. As you may know he was a five time open champion. That being said in that year that he won all those tournaments (1985) or approx that year; he played a Dunlop ball that flew very very low. No real good carry according to him. But it was noticeably low in flight even watching it on tv. The next year Dunlop stopped making it. Have you any ideas on what model that ball was or some if it’s spin rates or any info about it? I would love to try and hit a ball that flys very low. According to him it was great for his game. Other pros were stealing then from his bag. I saw this in an interview. I Romberg him hitting a very low ball then but I thought it was just his swing. Turns out it was the ball he was using!
Nice guy.. enjoyed the interview.. funny guy too
i found a mtb on a range played it and absolutely loved it equally as good as my srixon z star xv or titelist pro v 1 x great ball at grate price
Good video. Thanks for the good information. And especially thanks for the info on water balls.
Great informative interview
