Venom Shock

The new solid purple Venom Shock produces a violent reaction on light to medium oil conditions.  It attacks the lane with the proven Gear™ weight block and new cover technology – Turmoil™ MFS (Medium Friction Solid) Reactive, which is a modified version of the more aggressive shell featured on the Covert Revolt.  This core and cover combination provides a smooth yet angular backend motion that strikes with devastating continuation.   

As far as shelf appeal, the Venom Shock does not disappoint.  The vibrant orange logo really pops off the purple shell.  And, for those that are into glow-in-the-dark bowling, the logos on the ball glow orange and green. 

The Venom Shock really does have it all – performance, looks, and a great price point.  The most shocking thing about this ball may be that you get such outstanding performance at such an affordable price! 

WHEN TO USE:

  • Speed Dominant - Bowlers with higher speeds or moderate speed paired with lower rev rates, the Venom Shock is a great option for control in higher friction environments. Late in league nights or on low volume patterns, the Venom Shock shines for speed dominant bowlers.   
  • Balanced - For the balanced bowler the Venom Shock is an absolute must have in the middle of their arsenal.  Balanced bowlers will find that the versatility of the shock allows it to be used in many different volumes and lengths of oil from dry lanes to moderately high volumes of oil.  An added bonus for bowlers who love the Venom Shock is how well it responds to surface changes.  
  • Rev Dominant - Those with revs to spare can use the Venom Shock in many volumes of oil and see outstanding down lane continuation for a ball that is conventionally thought of as a control ball.  A shiny Venom Shock is a staple in the bag of many PBA Touring players who want to create some angle without sacrificing control in later transition.

    Venom Shock

    I bought the Venom Shock during summer league to help me clear the front a bit better. I bowl in house shots and a stroker style bowler. Since switching to the Venom Shock my average went up from a 191 to now in the 220s consistently. I have been using it for all 3 games and find it very predictable so small changes is all I need to get more strikes and also play the lanes during transition. I highly recommend this ball. Other balls in my bag, Legacy and Mythic.

    Great overall ball

    I have been bowling for 3 years now. The Venom Shock was my league ball last year and start of this current year. It has upped my average by 20 pins. It has great forgiveness even when missing your mark. My first ball from Motiv but has turned out to be my favorite.

    Smooth and predictable

    Bought my first ball after 40 years. Needed a 13 lb. ball and Motiv is the only one with the same core as its heavier siblings. Glad I did. First game out of the box was over 200 (1st time). First week of league today and 3rd game was over 200 (2nd time). My average was only 130-140 with my son's hand-me-down Hammer Raw! The Venom Shock was so smooth and predictable as soon as I found my rhythm and target. Even with the burn on the 3rd game, I was still able to deliver by moving left on the approach, I would definitely look for another Motiv ball when my house lane conditions are excessive or change a lot.
