Venom Shock

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.

    Must have

    At first i was skeptical about how much control I would have. This ball does not disappoint. I can hit the pocket easily even when my aim is slightly off. Great ball, a must have in any arsenal. Great for beginners and pros alike.

    AMAZING!!!

    Literally the best Venom ball! I would recommend this ball to anyone in the market for a ball. Hands down the most versatile in my opinion. Will always have a slot in my bag! Colors are also fantastic!

    The GOAT for a reason

    As a low-rev guy, I used to operate under the notion that I only needed balls at the top end of Motiv's chart to have success. About 2 years ago, I was averaging ~215. I finally decided to try out a Venom Shock. I'd seen all the hype about it, it's track record on Tour, longevity, etc.

    The first time I threw it, I started kicking myself for not buying one sooner. This ball looks good at any center I'm in for leagues or tournaments. I'm now averaging close to 230. I've always matched up well with Motiv balls (10 years running!), but this ball makes me look like an entirely different bowler.

    It's my benchmark ball and I'm currently pairing it with the Black Venom for a nice 1-2 punch.

    This ball punches way above its weight and deservedly gets the GOAT title.

    Wow is all I got

    I’ve been a casual bowler for years. Just started curving last season. Multiple people recommended the Venom Shock, and omg what a difference. Can’t wait to watch my average rise rapidly

    Venom Shock

    Very satisfied with my Venom Shock I got from a couple of weeks ago! My favorite bowling ball from Motiv was the Villain and hoping this ball can resemble that feeling I had with the Villain!
    In all very good, would highly recommend!
