EJ Tackett has done it again! He won his 3rd PBA Player of the Year title and this time it’s back-to-back years! This is DOMINANCE.  To celebrate his latest POY, EJ Tackett and MOTIV are releasing a LIMITED-EDITION weapon designed for absolute power on the lane – the Jackal EXJ. This solid arctic white and silver pearl hybrid demands your attention.  And once your attention has been captured, the massive hook and insane power will keep it! 

The Jackal line has been the gold standard for heavy oil performance for years.  And if you love Jackals, you need performance options. In the current MOTIV line, we have the solid Jackal Onyx, the solid Jackal Ghost, and pearl Crimson Jackal.  But it’s been over three years since we have released a hybrid edition. 

Enter the new Jackal EXJ, featuring the all-new Propulsion HVH Hybrid coverstock.  This new cover creates more traction in oil than any hybrid Jackal before, while still saving energy for down lane motion in high volume conditions, perfectly slotting between the Jackal Ghost and the Crimson Jackal.

At the heart of the Jackal EXJ is the Predator V2 core, the most dominant high-performance asymmetric core we’ve ever built.  This fast revving, huge flaring asymmetric core is designed to be the strongest core any bowler will ever need. 

The Jackal EXJ is a celebration of the best. Of all things victorious. This ball is a statement that it’s time to take your game to new heights!

    All Gas no Brakes!

    I have thrown my Jackal Ghost for two years now, with several Venoms as well. This was my second Jackal purchased and it’s the beast I was hoping for. I’m not someone that has a lot of revs, and I have decent speed. The transition of this ball is what I have been missing in my life. The carry is crazy and for these reasons I say all gas no brakes! The price is justifiable because to have the best sometimes that means paying a little more! Goes great with my Artic Sniper as well.

    Player of the Year Power!

    MOTIV Bowling and EJ Tackett are incredible. The Jackal EXJ truly provides Player of the Year power! I’ve thrown this ball at league and a variety of tournaments and it really does pack a punch through the pins. The #1 factor I have found is that it doesn’t over react and provides predictablity. The Predator™ core never disappoints. The Propulsion™ HVH Reactive is a great combination for this core and really does complement the other Jackals we have in the line. This ball, much like EJ, is one of a kind so make sure you get yours!

    New equipment testing

    Hey Motivational pro-staff.. Threw EXJ last night 2022 Kegel house shot. Though it’s a 42” pattern, heavy oil was present. Jackal ExJ came into the pocket perfect. Had an excellent 10 week league with Primal rage, lethal venom, and ended with third place with Jackal rounding out the night!!. And special thanks to Nathan with Motiv sales and tech support!

    Ok, as everyone has been on a craze for this ball, Being EJ Tacketts ball! This ball is no joke! With the Powerful Predator V2 core driving this Hybrid Covered beast, EJ knew exactly what to have on this one! This core being his 3rd favorite core (Gear, Stigma, Predator V2). This round, he wanted to unleash the true beast of the Jackal! And WOW!!!! The Propulsion HVH Reactive Hybrid cover is the Perfect Match to the core!
    This combination really revs up down lane! Clears the fronts really easy, the big core really revs this ball up so nice! The down lane performance of this ball is definitely a strong angular shape and continuous through the deck! Motiv really put this ball in the perfect spot on the chart, and being a Hybrid, it is definitely the right choice for anyone looking for the Ultimate Jackal! This is the Onyx and Crimson in 1 ball! You Definitely Need to get this ball! Oh, and just in case you were wondering about the surface of this ball? The Duramax additive is there, And with the surface being at 4000LSS, You can put it to the scanner and check it! Mine reads 4700LSS which many will know is Stable! This cover isnt changing at all! Yeah it may get a little dirty, but some cleaner always brings it back to the Beautiful White/Silver!
    Congratulations Motiv and EJ, Grand Slam Home Run on this one! I Love this Company!!!!
