Venom Recoil

(Retired 10/28/2021)
5.0Read Reviews

The Venom line is getting a power upgrade with the new Venom Recoil. This is the first asymmetric Venom ever released by MOTIV and it features the new Gear APG (Asymmetric Performance Gain) weight block.

Because the balance-hole rule has changed, MOTIV created the asymmetric Gear APG weight block to give ball drillers more layout versatility when no balance-hole is used.

The original Venom Shock provides incredible performance at a very affordable price and this new asymmetric Venom Recoil is no different. This ball offers massive value!

    Very nice ball

    I use this ball quite frequently and it always has been a very consistent piece in my arsenal. The asymmetric core gives me a tad more pop on the backend than the venom shock would and has very great continuation.

    I would recommend this to a friend

    Awesome ball

    Amazing ball on our house shot. As the lanes start to dry up it still has the control as if it was still the first game.

    Ball that Hooks off the Spot

    This ball gets down lane as as soon as it sees friction it starts to go left. Solid Asym Ball with a coverstock at 4000. This ball is sure to release the recoil after the friction and strike hard. Pick one up today.

    A GREAT 1-2 punch is Venom Recoil (ASYM) with the Venom Shock(SYM) these balls will not let you down on a house shot or short to medium pattern.

    I would recommend this to a friend
