Changing up my drum sound, need opinions

[Seafroggys]

So I've gotten some new mics recently, I got another SM57 a few weeks back and I got a Naiant X-M mic in yesterday. I decided to change up my standard 4 mic setup and go for something different.

This first sample is VERY sloppy playing, so pardon that aspect, but its the regular 4 mic setup with my Naiant mic positioned 6 feet in front of the set, getting a decent room sound. Its a garage so it doesn't sound that sweet, but it's a sound:

This next one is another recording (with slightly better playing) with my traditional 4 mic setup:

This last one is the very same recording as the second one, but with a mic underneath the snare and a hi-hat mic:

Any thoughts, comparisons, etc?

I don't know how you would set it up, but a blend of the first two would sound pretty pro.

Didn't like the third much. Too snappy.

I like the normal one best with just the 4. But the room mic does has some nice room sound to the cymbals, but makes the toms sound too boomy..
I like the mic underneath too to bring out the kick, but I think you should turn it down in the mix.
