Product Description
Introducing the Motiv Black Venom™ bowling ball, a bold upgrade to the already incredible Venom™ line.
This uncompromising new addition features the latest Leverage™ cover technology from the Jackal Ambush, modified for maximum performance on moderate oil volume. Pairing this new Leverage™ MFS Solid Reactive cover with the Gear™ APG asymmetric core creates earlier read and unstoppable traction when attacking light-medium oil lane conditions.
The cover stock on the Venom™ Shock has been the gold standard for benchmark performance since its release nine years ago. As oil volumes have increased over time, the Venom™ Shock appears more angular, so it’s time to take things to the next level. Upgrading to Leverage MFS technology means the Black Venom has more bite and a smoother motion on the lane, giving you the upper hand when maximum traction is what you need.
At the core of the Black Venom you’ll find the Gear™ APG. Originally developed to overcome the loss of weight holes in sanctioned play, it’s a uniquely low RG / low differential asymmetric core that delivers performance beyond its price point. With versatile drilling options, you can create many shapes on the lane with just this one Gear APG core.

Motiv Black Venom
Great ball and this is the only motive bowling ball I throw.

Venom
Ball rolls great, kept out of box surface, 5 x 3.5 x 2.5 nice and strong arcing backend motion

Great bench mark Asym
Drilled 5x3.5x2.5 (pin above bridge) Rpm 330 ish 16-17 mph off the hand (right) Great bench mark ball, continuous off the end of the pattern.. I’ve had problems in the past with Asym balls rolling too forward at the end of the pattern for me and this puppy definitely continues. Not my personal best option to open up the lane, but great at the beginning of a block to blend out the lanes.

Best Ball Release for 2023
The Black Venom is a house shot killer, on medium to light oil conditions.. So smooth and predicable. A true benchmark ball. This ball is so good, I have a second one stashed away for the future.

Black Venom
Just as advertised, earlier and smoother off the breakpoint than the Venom Shock.
