The mic directly over the head is always going to lack snap. Adding a mic outside the shell helps. Also, a PZM on the back wall or a mic a couple of feet out in front of the kit helps make the snare come alive. There is a sweet spot for the FOK mic. If you find it you get a really luscious snare tone.
