Rogue Assassin

5.0Read Reviews

The proven core and cover of the Rogue Assassin combine for an unstoppable combination.  Bowlers searching for a benchmark control ball on medium oil have found their match in the Rogue™ Assassin.  The Rogue™ Assassin provides traction in the oil, but with less total hook than a Jackal™ Ghost or Forge™.  Increased friction and a controllable down lane motion merge for a deadly combination.

The proven Sigma™ core is the standard for benchmark performance.  The Sigma™ core provides stability in the mid-lane that bowlers expect from a medium oil benchmark ball.

Coercion™ HFS is finally available on a medium oil ball!  This proven cover has been used for heavier oil covers and is now available on the Rogue™ Assassin.   Coercion™ HFS is intended to increase friction in moderate to high volume environments to provide a controllable down lane motion.

    Rack Assassin

    The Rogue Assassin is a great benchmark ball. It is both strong and smooth, giving it the ability to blend out the oil pattern and create a nice, even ball reaction. When the lanes start to transition, this is the ball to go to. The layout I used was 50x3.5"x35 which puts the pin just right of my ring finger.

    Rogue Assassin!!

    The combination of the proven Sigma Core and the Coercion HFS cover (found in the Jackal Ghost) help make the Rogue Assassin a perfect benchmark ball. This ball provides me with a consistent read of the pattern through the middle of the lane, and a continuous motion down lane into the pins. With less hook overall than the Jackal Ghost, the Assassin becomes a great ball on tricky lane conditions when controlling the pocket is a must. This is a must have for anyone looking to add a great benchmark shape to their arsenal!

    Rogue Assassin

    Just drilled it up yesterday and WOW is this ball good. The hitting power is impressive, but what most impressed me was its versatility and how it got to the pocket consistently even when I missed my mark. Will be my benchmark ball from now on.

    My most dependable ball

    MOTIV's new Rogue Assassin has one of the most successful cover and core combinations in the company's history. It has the Core of the Sigma series and the cover of the Jackal Ghost. For me, the result has been a ball that grabs in the oil and revs up exceptionally hard in the backend. I drilled it up and my first game of league out of the box was a 300 game! I have found that whenever the conditions start to get tricky, the Rogue Assassin always finds a way to the pocket. And it hits harrrrrrrrd. If you're looking for a dependable ball that has the potential to be great on anything but the most extreme conditions, the Rogue Assassin is probably close to what you're looking for. I also did a YouTube review of the Rogue Assassin - you can watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1Jdgte057Y
