Possibly unannounced to many golfers, Snell Golf offers an even more affordable golf ball in their Get Sum offering. The Get Sum golf ball is a 2-piece golf ball that takes some of the MTB DNA and delivers excellent affordability with performance. No PGA sponsorships means cost savings to amateur golfers and Get Sum helps round out Snell’s already impressive lineup.
Key Features
Get Sum is a 2-piece golf ball with a low compression rating.
Get Sum comes highly awarded and conforms to all USGA standards of play.
Each Get Sum golf ball features a Surlyn cover that allows for a more optimal flight and spin.
Design and Technology
The crux of the Get Sum golf ball is performance and affordability. By combining the expansive golf experience of the Snell team, they have created a golf ball that give more spin to help players get a more balanced golf ball flight and hopefully reduce slices and hooks. Get Sum uses a Surlyn cover that reduces costs and promotes a soft feel .
Snell Get Sum Golf Balls
The Snell Golf Get Sum golf ball is best suited for players who prioritize low spin rates off the driver and long irons. This ball is designed to provide:
Low spin in the long game, resulting in longer, straighter drives:

- The Get Sum’s white and optic yellow finishes allow golfers to find their preferred look for in all conditions.
CONS
- The Get Sum golf ball is not available in a test pack and will be difficult to try before buying.

- Our testing did not indicate a significant reduction of slice or hook spin when comparing the Get Sum to similar performance options.
Our Experience
Evaluating 2-piece golf balls can be difficult. In general, it can be expected that fewer layers means less diverse performance, especially around the greens. I was surprised that the Get Sum featured high spin rates and exceptional control coming from a variety of lies and different ground conditions. I will not go as far to say that this 2-piece golf ball performed at the level of tour-inspired offerings, but I will say that without a doubt it is one of the most impressive Surlyn covered golf balls I have ever hit. Good distance with the driver and consistency with the short clubs make the Get Sum an outstanding option for golfers who need to save money to enjoy their rounds.
