Brace yourself— a lethal dose of Venom is coming.  The Venom line, already legendary, introduces the latest game-changer, the Lethal Venom.  This wicked new addition offers the predictable and smooth motion you loved from the Venom Recoil but dials it up with the latest cutting-edge technology.  Leverage MXC coverstock with Duramax technology pairs with the asymmetrical Gear APG core for a deadly combination. 

At the heart of the Lethal Venom is the Gear APG asymmetrical core, and it’s an absolute powerhouse. With a fast-spinning low RG of 2.47, a controllably low differential of .036, and an intermediate differential of .013 — this core strikes the perfect balance of control and versatility. What does that mean for you? It’s like having the precision of the original Gear core from the Venom Shock—but on steroids. The Gear APG lets you adapt and attack the lanes with confidence.

Now, let’s talk coverstock—the Lethal Venom features the same Leverage MXC Solid Reactive cover originally found on the Subzero Forge.  That means the Lethal Venom is the first Venom to contain the game-changer of Duramax additive technology!  This means that the cover will hold its surface longer, have better traction in the oil, create a smooth down-lane motion, and allow for maximum control. This isn’t just innovation—it’s domination.

When To Use

  • Speed Dominant Bowlers - For speed dominant bowlers, the Venom Shock and Black Venom may be too clean to use on fresh oil.  For bowlers in that situation, the Leverage MXC coverstock will give enough traction to use a lower differential core like the Gear APG when more rev dominant players are using them.  Additionally, speed dominant players benefit greatly from Duramax enhanced coverstocks and the Lethal Venom will serve as a great step down from the Subzero Forge and Evoke for lower oil concentrations or straighter angles.
  • Balanced Bowlers - The Lethal Venom will be a great benchmark option for balanced bowlers to use as the first ball out of their bag.  For balanced bowlers, a smooth, controllable, lower flaring ball is useful for reading an oil pattern and giving a great deal of control early in competition. 
  • Rev Dominant Bowlers - Many rev dominant bowlers need smooth and controllable motion, but struggle to use high differential bowling balls.  The significant flare of a high diff ball can often create issues with carry for rev dominant players.  WIth the .036 differential of the Lethal Venom, rev dominant players can use something that will respond more slowly to friction on the lane without being hindered by excessive flare.

    Strong but fair

    This ball has a fairly strong reaction to friction but it is a fair reaction. Does not over hook, reads the lanes earlier but carries plenty of energy thru the pocket. Definitely a great benchmark, or starting point type ball for fresh alleys.

    Wow like I said

    The first two outings, 738 off the press and 767 the following day. Being a lower rev bowler, this ball has a ton of forgiveness room stores enough energy to explode the pocket. If you are a league bowler, this ball is a must have! You won't regret it.

    Gotta keep trying!

    Got enough games on it now to review. At first. did not like it and was going to sell it, Punched it 70x4x30, my favorite drilling. Finally decided to polish it up and put a 5500 LSP on it and it came to life for me. Wonderful compliment to my Hysteria. Striking a lot more with it now on toasted lanes.
