Venom Shock Pearl

4.9Read Reviews

Finally, the Venom Shock Pearl (VSP) has arrived! Featuring our new Hexion cover and a dual density weight block, the VSP is the perfect complement to the original solid edition, which is one of the most popular MOTIV balls ever because it is so versatile on light to medium oil. 

The Top Gear™ weight block gives the Venom Shock Pearl a low RG and low differential similar to the original solid ball, yet its dual density structure provides a more angular backend motion. 

To provide easy length and a fast response to friction, a new Hexion MFP (Medium Friction Pearl) Reactive cover is utilized on the VSP.  At the factory, the Purple Pearl cover stock is tuned with a 5500 Grit LSP finish to boost the performance attributes of MOTIV’s Hexion technology.

Rev dominant bowlers will be pleased to find great length and angle from the Venom Shock Pearl.  Similarly, bowlers currently using the solid edition will now have an outstanding complementary ball for that third game when the oil pattern is broken down.

    Venom Shock Pearl

    When I ordered this ball, I was a little concerned with it listed as a light to medium oil ball, but I should not have been worried at all. This ball moves on fresh as well as when the pattern breaks down. With my layout and axis tilt this ball carries better on high flush hits. It has plenty of angle when it hits the friction. I have played this ball from 5 to 12 and can find the pocket. The Venom Shock Pearl is the most consistent ball in my arsenal. It is the only Motiv ball I own, but won't be the last.

    It’s what you expect

    Hi there and thanks for reading this review! So you wanna know about the Venom Shock PEARL, it’s truly a great ball to use when you open the games with some heavy oil balls. This gives you excellent length with that backend bite that everyone is trying to find in pearl balls. I find a lot of success on a beaten up typical house shot. If you are a high rev or rev dominant player, you’ll really really love the trust that this balls offers. Truly a must have in your arsenal!

    Love this ball

    Bought this one towards the end of the season last year and absolutely love it. Gets down the lane well and breaks hard to the pocket when it hits friction
