New Snell MTB on the way in 2018?

[Denny Bang Bang]

With my recent order of Snell MTB balls I received a happy holidays card, with the below image on the back.  I remember seeing a Snell video a couple months ago maybe, where Dean discussed they were working on some new prototypes.  I also received an email this morning from Snell, stating the value packs are now also on sale.  All evidence points me to suspect a new MTB in 2018...

Uh, yes.

Thanks for sharing that.

I believe that the 6 dozen deal is down to $147

Interesting.  If I had to guess, I'd bet they're doing a Pro-V1 / V1X style compression pair.

I hope they make the 2018 MTB in yellow.

Received an email this afternoon... the two new MTB models coming out soon, MTB Red and MTB Black.  Details will be coming out 1/15, I’ll try to share.

@Hardspoon I’m guessing a yellow MTB won’t be the case (of course I don’t know for sure), as they’ve mentioned before the process to color urethane is difficult and expensive

Posted the details in the wrong topic by accident... but here are the details on the new MTB balls.  Fans of yellow will be happy!

You can try both if you pick up the sample pack

The Snell GetSum if you want a comparable ball. The value pack is priced nicely. Good distance ball with surlyn cover, but it's not a urethane cover, so you get more rollout. I use it when conditions/greens are wet.

For him, the ball would be GetSum.

I ordered 2 dz MTB Red in Optic Yellow - Dean went to a lot of trouble and expense to produce a urethane cover optic ball.

He asked which is worth trying... both new balls are worth trying (irregardless if he currently plays an e6).

 

Curious to hear your thoughts on the MTB Red once you have the chance to try them out.

Is the Red a competitor to the Vice Pro Plus - always liked the V1X and have been hoping Snell would come out with something that matches up, heard a lot of good feedback here.  Curious to see reviews on these.

Red has 4 layer

Doh! Then I'd say neither of them - hasn't give us enough info about what he wants or needs.

Another month until the Red is released...  I still have a dozen MTB to which to compare them.

Received my sample pack of the Red & Black in the mail today.  It may be a couple weeks before I can review... but I’ll follow up once I have the chance to give them a go.  I’ll compare them to the prior MTB, ProV-1, and ProV-1x

Was given a sleeve of the Snell MTB Red - Love them.  What a great ball, as soon as I run out of my other golf balls, these are going in my bag.  For me it's longer than the Pro V1x and has the same feel around the greens.
