WARNING, this new Nuclear Forge is highly reactive! Witness the revolution of bowling dominance as the fiery glow of the Nuclear Forge bowling ball takes over the lanes. Creating a fusion of the proven Detonator core with new Propulsion HVP coverstock, the Nuclear Forge provides length through the front of the lane with electrifying backend motion. Brace yourself for the arrival of a ball so explosive, it redefines what’s possible.


Motiv Bowling's pearl coverstocks are not just a game-changer; they're an absolute force! From Santtu Tahvanainen's mind-blowing World Series of Bowling triumph with the Supra Rally to EJ Tackett's thrilling TV 300 achieved with the ExJ VIP Sigma, Motiv has cemented its authority as the ultimate force in pearl resin mastery.


Following the success of the Propulsion coverstock on the PBA Tour, MOTIV R&D set out to create a Propulsion cover that could handle higher concentrations of oil. The new Propulsion HVP cover on the Nuclear Forge is that cover. This Propulsion High Volume Pearl cover has more traction in oil than Propulsion DRS, but with the same technology at its base. This dynamic pearl coverstock is the pinnacle of MOTIV's expertise!

The Detonator core pulses with energy inside the Motiv Nuclear Forge bowling ball. This highly stable core fuses a fast-spinning, low RG design with high differential strength. This combination provides the incredible control from the low RG, and when the high differential comes into play, it delivers unmatched traction and brute force.

WHEN TO USE:

  • Speed dominant Bowlers: The Nuclear Forge is a pearl with a strong enough core for speed dominant bowlers to use when creating angle down lane is necessary.  The combination of a high volume pearl cover and a low rg/high differential core means speed dominant bowlers can trust that their ball will still create shape when most pearls just can’t.
  • Balanced Bowlers: For balanced bowlers the Nuclear Forge is the first symmetrical pearl out of the bag.  When transition hits and these bowlers are forced to find some help through the front, the Nuclear Forge is a great solution.  The strong pearl cover can still handle moderate to medium heavy volumes of oil while providing ample down lane motion.
  • Rev Dominant Bowlers: On higher friction surfaces rev dominant players are so often forced into pearl covers to start their block.  The fast revving, big flaring Detonator core will help rev dominant bowlers have some control while still creating the angle through the front that their physical game demands of them. 

If you think you can handle the reactivity of this bowling ball, then pick yours up today here at Motiv Bowling. We want to take your bowling game to the next level, so be sure to choose us when it’s time to invest in some new bowling balls or bowling accessories!

    Explosively Good Ball

    I have had this ball about six months and in that time, it went from the worst ball in my arsenal to now being the first ball out the bag in league and tournament play. I have achieved nothing but 220+ scores using this ball. At times it seems like it has an autocorrect feature built into it. I have stumbled and almost fell and this ball still somehow managed to get me a strike. I can play an inside line (around 17 and 18), or an outside line (around 7) it doesn't matter this ball will still find the pocket. Even when I play my usual straight up standing around 23 and hitting around the 12 or 13 board at the arrows the ball still tracks and hits the pocket hard. I don't have a high rev rate, but I am a speed bowler, usually around 17 to 18 mph.

    Beautiful

    Ball feels amazing off my hand and works well in the transition. Looks good going down the lane.

    This ball really shows how reactive really is. I recently had a league night, I started with a different ball. When that one was not working well, I made a change to this bad boy, I shot better after that mishap. This ball is something you really should look more at.

    Love this ball. When I need a little bit of length but still something that turns the corner to crash the pocket, this bad boy gets the job done!!

    Great ball for the heavy oil

    Bought the Nuclear Forge when my pro shop got it in. Drilled it for a longer lane angle than the way I drilled my Coral Venom. So far I like how it’s forgiving. If I miss my mark by two boards it’s as advertised great backend action, fast in the front. Great ball. I work in a pro shop now and I am getting more eyes on Motiv balls. My son bowls with Motiv and was the main reason I went from Hammer to Motiv so we have almost every ball you offer. My son bowls with the whole VIP, Supra, Jackal Ambush, and Black Venom now. We are waiting for the new Jackal. Thanks Motiv
