Motiv Mythic Jackal

Motiv Mythic Jackal

Motiv is introducing a different kind of hybrid bowling ball with the Mythic Jackal. The purpose of this ball was to generate as much angle as possible while continuing to offer attributes of true heavy oil performance. This ball was designed to create angle when the heavy oil starts to transition. This high-performance ball uses the same Predator V2 core as the super successful Jackal Ghost. This low RG/high diff asymmetric core is wrapped with the Infusion HV 2:1 Hybrid Reactive coverstock. This cover technology uses two times as much pearl as it does solid for this coverstock enabling the ball to produce more angle downlane without totally losing traction.

Answer:


The Mythic Jackal is actually designed to go longer on the lanes and have a sharper backend hook than the Jackal Legacy which reads earlier with an arcing hooking.

Question:


Does this ball compliment the Iron Forge at all? I've always really liked hybrids but the fact that it's 2/3rds pearl makes me leary. I've been wanting a hybrid Jackal forever and just bought an Iron Forge.

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


To do a comparison I can use the numbers that Motiv has for each ball on their website. The Iron Forge is Length: 16 Backend: 18.5 Hook: 57 and the Mythic Jack is Length: 16 Backend: 18 Hook: 60 So there is not much difference besides the Jackal being stronger overall.

Question:


How does this ball compare to the jackal ghost?

4/5/2022 - By

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


They have the same weight block so the biggest change will be from the coverstock and finish. The Mystic Jackal has a hybrid coverstock and smoother coverstock versus the solid cover and duller finish on the Jackal Ghost. So the Mystic will react later on the lanes and have a sharper backend hook.

Question:


Can this ball be used on dry lane or any conditions?

5/12/2022 - By

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


This bowling ball is considered high performance and it has a high hook potential so it will work best in heavier oil conditions. If you were to try and use this ball in medium to lighter oil conditions it would react too early on the lane and would not have the continuation at the backend of the lane so the ball would hit flat and not drive as well through the pocket.
