I was just wondering if Motiv was PBA certified. I know for Regionals and I believe Nationals that the equipment you have must be apporved by the PBA prior to the tournament. If it is not, any estimate when it will be?

Great question. I was asked to bowl a few Regionals up here but wanted to make sure I can use my motiv stuff in tournament.

I have heard from staff member Angela Wilt that Motiv equipment will be approved for "PBA Regional and Senior events" as of September 1st. The quotes are her words. Are there other Senior events other than Regionals that would need PBA approval?

Angela is correct. Motiv equipment will be cleared for use, effective September 1, 2009, for PBA Regionals and (I believe) all Senior events, both Regional & National. They cannot be used in any PBA National tour stop.

At this point it makes more sense for MOTIV to only pay the senior
and regional fees.The PBA fee for national tour is around $140,000.00.
Keeping it in the regional and senior tour will be a better use of money until the company grows more.This allows MOTIV to save money for marketing,advertising, and research.MOTIV had a lot of big name
pros stopping by the both in Las Vegas at Bowl Expo.So there is interest
in the product.Now we just need to keep saying good things about MOTIV.
I'm sure they will do their part to keep producing quality products.
