I was looking for a ball that would have a lot of bite on the back end after sliding through a range of lighter to heavier house shots. This ball has quite the punch, and I just bowled 300 #5, the first of hopefully many with this ball!

So far, I've used a 12-pound ball and I looked for a 13-pound ball to increase the weight a little, but the shape of the core of most of company's ball changes depending on the weight, but the shape of the core of motiv's ball was the same regardless of the weight.
That's why I made the choice.
And after changing the ball, my performance improved a lot, so I felt very good.

I recently moved back to Georgia and learned that the technique that I used to layout my balls is no longer practiced. I was given a copy of Mo Pinel's Dual Angle Technique. Very interesting read.
With that said, my pro shop guy laid out my Iron Forge: 45x4 1/4x25 surface taken down to 2000. With this layout the ball rolls nicely through the mid lane, goes long and hits hard on the backend.
A great ball. I was an all Ebonite guy, now I’m stuck with MOTIV.
Thank you for a great ball line.

The high rev bowlers love this ball more and can get that movement out of it. I am a lower rev guy and so this ball is good the first game until the oil carries down, when that happens I don't have the revs to overcome the oil. However you can slow it down and still get some pop out of it. So for different conditions, this works! But I'm going to call it a higher rev ball, and if you have higher revs, your gonna like this one!

The Iron Forge is my first Motiv ball. I bought it for my son for Christmas but I have found myself using it more than him. The hook took me awhile to figure out but once I did, my score jumped.
This may be my first Motiv ball but it surely won’t be my last. I can’t wait to try out the rest of the line up.
