Fatal Venom

Item Number: MTVBVMFTL

$174.99112 Read Reviews

The Fatal Venom™ provides a deadly combination of length with an angular strike on light-medium oil conditions.  It features the latest MOTIV® cover technology and the outstanding original Gear™ core from the Venom™ Shock.

The Gear™ core gives the Fatal Venom™ both low RG and low differential so it spins super-fast with minimal track flare.  The result is a stable ball motion with massive energy retention. 

Utilizing the latest Infusion™ Pearl Reactive cover, the Fatal Venom™ offers great length and angularity. These traction characteristics joined with the control of the Gear™ core provide a clean and moderately angular motion that is ideal for scoring on drier lanes. 

WHEN TO USE:

  • Speed Dominant: For straighter angles on moderately dry lanes.  The Gear core and Infusion combo will allow the bowler to use the pearl to clear the front without sacrificing control down lane.
  • Balanced: A great dry lane benchmark piece.  If you know that there is not a lot of volume on the lane or the lane surface is higher friction, this will be a great first ball out of the bag.
  • Rev Dominant: When the most angular balls in the product line are too much down lane, the Fatal Venom will be the go-to option.

Tip: Check with your local pro shop for the best prices.

    A true pearl Venom Shock

    Many of us have been waiting for it, and everyone in Muskegon made it happen. With the tremendous success and rave the Infusion Pearl has gotten on the balls it's already been featured on, the Fatal Venom adds to that list. The Infusion Cover is our cleanest, and most responsive cover that gets through beat up fronts with ease. The best time I've seen this ball used for me is at the end of a tournament when I need to get left and need a ball that can respond hard enough downlane and still gets through the pins. This ball has instantly become one of my favorites and has seen a ton of lane time for me because of how consistent it is and truly feels like great compliment to the Venom Shock, which is my favorite ball in the bag. Whenever I keep moving left with the Shock and it stops cornering, the Fatal Venom is the first ball I go to and is the perfect compliment to the Shock! It's cleaner, more responsive and can handle more angle when the Shock is too much.

    As clean as this ball is, it's unlike most cleaner balls where it can sometimes shoot past the breakpoint. The lower RG gear core makes sure the ball picks up soon enough, but the lower diff and stable ball roll through the fronts ensures that the ball still retains enough energy to get down the lane for the perfect balance of skid, and flip down the lane.

    This ball is going to go with me everywhere and will be a favorite for league bowlers bowling on house shots, as well as tournament bowlers like myself that will benefit from using this ball later in blocks. It's not a ball that is only good for one style, anyone with any style is going to love this ball!

    Fatal Venom Review

    The New Fatal Venom features the Infusion pearl cover wrapped around the famous gear core in the Venom Shock. Compared to the Shock the Fatal offers a tad more length with a much quicker motion on the backend. Knowing it was quicker down lane I used a stronger 3" pin layout which allowed the ball to start up earlier and give me a more controlled motion down lane. With how versatile this piece is I am able to move right and play more direct up the boards or move left and open up my angles. If you’re in the market for a new piece Check out the Fatal Venom! World Wide Release Date is 12/9/2020! Stay Motivated Everyone!

    Fatal Venom is easy to get down the lane and creates lots of shape on the back!

    The Fatal Venom is a light-medium oil ball and a great ball that easily gets down the lane for me. The Fatal Venom features the Gear core wrapped in the Infusion Pearl cover giving this ball a low RG and low differential producing amazing shape for this part of the ball chart! You will have no trouble getting this ball down the lane when the lanes are dry put still have plenty of hit to strike! Instant favorite in my bag!

    Motiv Fatal Venom

    The brand new Fatal Venom from Motiv is a homerun in the Venom line. This has to be one of my favorite balls to throw right now. Whether it's league, tournaments or practice. Compared to the Venom Shock Pearl, the Fatal rolls much stronger through the fronts and is more angular. The VSP was quicker off the spot but this ball will be a much better option when you start to move left.

    Fatal Venom

    Anyone that loves the Original Venom Shock will definitely LOVE the Fatal Venom. The GEAR core with the combination of the new INFUSION Pearl Reactive cover is a successful hit!

    As a tweener, this ball has provided me with better length and ball for later on in the tournament block and especially light-medium oil House Shots.

    The finish of the ball Out the Box provided me A LOT of angular bite initially, and a little break point. However, after manipulating the cover stock with 500, 1500, 3000 grit surface pads I was able to tame the angular motion down and still keep the drive through the pocket.
