Since 2017, the legendary Jackal Ghost has been reigning terror on heavy oil. With paranormal performance, it delivers more total hook potential than any previous Jackal ghost ball with no loss in continuation. It's scary good! The Predator V2 weight block, first used on the Jackal LE, is now at the core of Motiv's Jackal Ghost bowling ball. Featuring a low RG and loads of differential, this asymmetric design is easy to rev and produces massive track flare. 

Combining the physics of the Predator V2 with the chemistry of the new Coercion HFS (High Friction Solid) cover stock, the Jackal Ghost elevates heavy oil performance to a new level. Coercion HFS is the most aggressive cover stock to date on a bowling ball in the Jackal product line. Turned with a 3000 Grit Lss Finish, bowlers will see both excellent mid-lane read and unbelievable continuation. When you want to take your bowling performance to the next level, you want Motiv Bowling and our high-quality bowling balls, like the Jackal Ghost. When you want top performance on the lane and the hook you’ve always needed, turn to Motiv Bowling. 

Obviously the Jackal Ghost will be a go-to ball for bowlers that want to see more hook without sacrificing continuation on higher volumes of oil. It will also be ideal for bowlers that have a low rev rate or higher ball speeds.

WHEN TO USE: 

  • Speed Dominant - For a bowler with high ball speed or those with lower rev rates, the Jackal Ghost serves as an outstanding benchmark option due to the cleaner cover and controllable motion down lane.  The versatility of drilling offered by the Predator V2 also makes the Ghost a great benchmark piece for speed dominant bowlers. 
  • Balanced - Players who are balanced in their speed to rev rate ratio find the Ghost to be a must have for fresh oil and longer patterns.  The Jackal Ghost is ideal for balanced bowlers to use in a variety of lower friction environments. 
  • Rev Dominant - Over the past several years AJ Johnson and EJ Tackett have proven that the Jackal Ghost is a must have for the rev dominant player.  Due to the coverstock being moderately clean, a rev dominant player is able to use the Jackal Ghost without worrying about it “burning up” or getting too forward down lane like so many heavy oil asymmetrical balls. If that sounds nice to you, then you’ll definitely want to pick up a new Ghost bowling ball from Motiv Bowling before you go back to the lanes.

    I'm not going to fluff n nutter. I'm not a great bowler. 160 average. Have a few balls from Hammer, Storm and Motiv. Motiv balls & I jive the best. The Jackal Ghost & Black Venom are all I need. I could probably live with only the Jackal Ghost and call it a day. First game after drilling, rolled 164 with a hambone. Normally with a new ball, that would take a couple games. Second game, 180 with another hambone. Tonight in league, bowled a 211 with 2 turkeys. I might buy another to keep just in case. I'm between a stroker & cranker, Not saying this ball will be perfect for you....but it is for me!

    Jackal Ghost

    Made in the USA, the Jackal Ghost is the second ball that I own, and it's my first Motiv product. The ball is made of high quality materials. It is smooth, predictable, and hits the pocket really hard.
    This is the only ball I use right now because I also use it to pick up spares by keeping my thumb in the upper portion of the ball rolling it straight.
    Thank you Motiv for making quality products. I will be purchasing a Primal Shock next.

    Great motion!

    The way I drilled mine was for mid heavy volume! Great option especially for a predictable ball motion!

    Great ball

    The jackal ghost was the first ball I purchased after taking a 6 year break from bowling and it did not disappoint. I was able to shoot a 254 with the Ghost and I am more than pleased with how this ball reacts. Definitely a staple in the bag when there’s a fresh oil pattern im faced with

    Bread and butter

    When I go play in a league this is my bread and butter. It was my first Motiv bowling ball that I purchased and I love it.
