The new solid purple Venom Shock produces a violent reaction on light to medium oil conditions.  It attacks the lane with the proven Gear™ weight block and new cover technology – Turmoil™ MFS (Medium Friction Solid) Reactive, which is a modified version of the more aggressive shell featured on the Covert Revolt.  This core and cover combination provides a smooth yet angular backend motion that strikes with devastating continuation.   

As far as shelf appeal, the Venom Shock does not disappoint.  The vibrant orange logo really pops off the purple shell.  And, for those that are into glow-in-the-dark bowling, the logos on the ball glow orange and green. 

The Venom Shock really does have it all – performance, looks, and a great price point.  The most shocking thing about this ball may be that you get such outstanding performance at such an affordable price! 

WHEN TO USE:

  • Speed Dominant - Bowlers with higher speeds or moderate speed paired with lower rev rates, the Venom Shock is a great option for control in higher friction environments. Late in league nights or on low volume patterns, the Venom Shock shines for speed dominant bowlers.   
  • Balanced - For the balanced bowler the Venom Shock is an absolute must have in the middle of their arsenal.  Balanced bowlers will find that the versatility of the shock allows it to be used in many different volumes and lengths of oil from dry lanes to moderately high volumes of oil.  An added bonus for bowlers who love the Venom Shock is how well it responds to surface changes.  
  • Rev Dominant - Those with revs to spare can use the Venom Shock in many volumes of oil and see outstanding down lane continuation for a ball that is conventionally thought of as a control ball.  A shiny Venom Shock is a staple in the bag of many PBA Touring players who want to create some angle without sacrificing control in later transition.

    Insane Versatility

    2 hand righty High School bowler here. 15.8mph avg speed, 465rpm. Ball does exactly what I need. Needed a ball that can be used early and late, drilled it storm 2LS position 6 to handle fresh conditions. So far the ball has been effective everywhere. It rips off the fresh around 5 board, but also offers a smooth backend later in the block. I moved as far left as 35 and threw it out to 10. The carry was next level. This ball will be a staple in my bag for a while

    I would recommend this to a friend

    1st, Ball out the bag

    This is benchmark ball. When it doesn't hit the pocket I know which way to go. Very Predictable ball. It is a middle of the road ball.

    LOVE THIS BALL!

    I love Motiv equipment. I'm a military veteran and former PBA Member. I love this Motiv Venom Shock. It hooks on tighter conditions when I need a ball to do just that.

    Great all-around ball

    I really like this ball as it smooths out the constant over/under conditions our house puts down every night. This ball is very controllable when the transition from oil to dry is instant. Most other balls get very angular and run out but this ball still carries when nothing else will.

    Venom Shock is one of the BEST balls ever produced by ANY company

    I have been bowling since I was a very young child. Over the years I have used dozens of different bowling balls produced by literally every brand. Let me just say, it should not come as a SHOCK to anyone who has ever thrown this ball (or seen it thrown), that it is among the most useful, predictable, hard hitting, and versatile bowling balls ever produced. It is almost always my "go to" 1st ball out of my bag. I am a left handed player who would be described as "balanced". With the Shock in my hands, I can play most any condition on any lane surface. I could not recommend the Venom Shock more highly. Over the past couple of years, I know at least a half dozen league and tournament mates that have purchased this ball after seeing how it rolled for me. Motiv....PLEASE never stop producing this ball.....EVER !!
