GOAT
Was my first "hook" ball. Now i have 8 Motiv balls. This one is still the GOAT. Always the first out of the bag and most days, i only need this ball (and a spare one). Its my strongest ball. Oddly enough, i find that its stronger than my Jackal Legacy. I like to play up board 10, dont have high revs. This ball is great.

Great buy
Bought this for myself for my birthday. Ball came damaged however Bowling. Com made it right. Ball was hard to get use to and I had to take my time and learn what it could do. Did not like it at first however after practicing with it I got two low 500 series with it. This past Friday in our Senior League I had a 621 series which is way above my average series. I am a 71 year old female who throws a back up ball. Bought this particular ball because the core is not considered a generic core. I use a 13 lb ball and cores are usually generic.

Great option for league...
I was looking for a ball to replace or compliment an old favorite...Brunswick Scorchin' Inferno, but I didn't want a ball as strong as the Scorchin'. Finally decided to pick up a Venom Shock and drill it pin down. First time out, on a Sunday Family day and almost shot 700. 2nd time on fresh oil I noticed that the ball didn't hook up standing 25. Little did I remember that the OOB surface is 4000. I finally remembered and moved right and immediately hit a 5 bagger which would have been 7 bagger if not for a blower 7 and a stone 9. Great medium ball for league that can most likely be adjusted with surface if desired.

Venom shock
This ball is really great for house shot when the lanes are starting to transition but aren't dry enough to go to something more angular like a pearl. This ball in my opinion is the best game 2 ball. It's angular but smooth and reliable. 100% recommend this ball. I drilled mine pin above the ring finger and am excited to continue throwing it time and time again.

Fantastic Action and Power
I have been a Hammer-head for most of my life but a friend convinced me to look into MOTIV. I did a lot of research on the line of balls they offered and decided to try the Venom Shock. WOW!!!! I put a 70x40 @ 4" layout on it and this ball has amazing reaction when it gets to the dry. It hits with the perfect angle and with an amazing amount of power. My first game with the ball I threw my lifetime high of a 254. For a guy who does not bowl overly competitively I could not be happier. I think my new league arsenal is going to be MOTIV based. This ball is the perfect benchmark ball for me. I highly recommend this ball to anyone.

I would buy 3 copy's of this ball
This is my favorite ball in my arsenal. In my opinion it is the best ball Motiv has every made. It's a great ball with early smooth hook yet a very strong back end. This ball is very good too use once the fronts has broken down or on light to medium oil. It is very versatile you can play from a lot of different angles from the far left or far right or right down the middle.

great ball
I am around a 130 to 140 average and I bowled this ball for the first time 2 days ago on optimal medium oil and my first game was a 150. I was pleased with that. My first couple frames were strikes. I realized you wanna be towards the middle of the lane for better control. Then the next game I bested my best score and hit a 197. It never left my with any splits and I was able to hit the pocket about 99% of the time. That 1% I was a little nonchalant on the hook but all in all I can't wait till league night.

MOTIV VENOM SHOCK
LANE CONDITION Type (THS, Sport Pattern etc):modified house shot / house shot Recommended Lane Condition: Light-Medium Oil COMMENTS MOTIV Venom Shock: MOTIV Venom Shock Ball Specs: Likes: The MOTIV Venom Shock is definitely something special! This ball is an extremely reliable, smooth rolling, beast of a light to medium oil ball! Not only does the Shock look great going down the lane, it is affordable and has the ability to out perform any medium - light oil ball out there on the market. The SHOCK pairs well with the MOTIV Covert Revolt. Once the lanes begin to break down, the SHOCK is your go to ball with very little adjustment if any! When you need something you can rely on when you begin to notice carry down that will push through the oil, you can pull the Shock out of your bag!

MOTIV Venom Shock - Smooth Operator!
The Venom Shock is a great compliment to the recent releases from MOTIV. The low RG / Medium Differential Gear core, paired with a new solid coverstock provides a smooth roll throughout, with just enough at the backend to give me consistent carry. The best way to describe it is that the ball seems to drive forward through the pin deck, with less deflection. The pins also seem to stay lower - which I've seen with previous MOTIV balls that utilize the Gear core. After bowling with the Venom Shock for a few weeks, I've determined that my favorite time to use it is on a fresh medium to heavy oil pattern. It really helps to smooth out the lane from front to back. I'm able to groove it right up the track area in those conditions. On short sport patterns, this one also comes in very handy when I'm looking for a "hook/stop" type shape from an outside angle. I feel like this really widens the pocket for me, when more angular equipment would over-react on the back end. This piece is a "must" in my bag when it's tournament time! --Kevin Gallagher- PBA Member MOTIV Staff

#Purpleball
Description: The Venom Shock is the third installment of the Venom series and again placed in the lower mid-price range. The Venom Shock coverstock has the new Turmoil MFS, which is a modified version of the Turmoil HFS coverstock on the recently released Covert Revolt. For the core, MOTIV again used the Gear Core from the previous two Venom's and the much older GT-1. Reaction: In a one liner the Venom Shock is very clean through the front part of the lane and provides a consistent controlled downlane motion. I have found myself throwing the Venom Shock when playing straighter angles, but when my more predictable pieces do not seem to respond fast enough downlane. The shape it provides is between a mild slower response piece and something mild that is longer and has a faster response. My style doesn't quite allow me to throw this ball on the fresh or heavier patterns at the box surface, but that is not exactly the intention of this piece, however altering the surface to 2000 allowed it match up very well. Believe it or not the Venom Shock is a benchmark ball for me, it allows me to get straighter and still maintain a great shape downlane. Mags MOTIV/Turbo/Boom Apparel Staff Member

Question:
Is it good for a back up bowler
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Yes, this is good for a backup bowler.
Question:
Would this be a good spare ball
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
This is a mid performance ball. Spare balls are made out of plastic/polyester coverstock and that is what you would need for a straight ball.
Question:
Are these "First run" balls or "factory blems"?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
These will be first quality balls.
Question:
Is this the original Venom Shock (has a darker colored cover stock) or is this the new Venom Shock (has a lighter colored cover stock)?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
This is the original Venom Shock. The Venom Shock Pearl will have the lighter colored coverstock.
Question:
I am looking for something that is as similar to the old Sapphire Zones. Would this Venom shock or the Pearl be more similar to the Sapphire??
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The newer balls today have made more advances compared to the older balls. The newer balls will be more aggressive. You may want to reach out to Brunswick direct if you want to know a comparison on the Sapphire balls, they may be able to find a more comparable ball.
Question:
What is a great ball for medium-high oil patterns in the venom series
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Unfortunately, in all of the Venom series, they will be for light to medium lane conditions.
Question:
Which ball would give more length without over reacting this one or the cobra
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The Venom Cobra will have more length since it is a hybrid coverstock and the Venom Shock is a solid coverstock.
Question:
Do you give up too much with a 13 pound ball versus a 14 pound ball?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Motiv has the same weight block on the 13 and 14lbs weights so there is not a big drop off on performance. Of course the lighter you go in weight the less the ball will carry through the pocket so heavier usually hits the pins better.
Question:
Can I get A 14lb
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
We do have 14lbs in stock for this at this time so you can order 14lbs and we will ship this out.
Question:
I just bought this ball and I am straight ball bowler. Based on internet inquiry this ball is highly recommended for bowlers like me. Do you agree?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
It you bowl straight you could get a much less expensive spare ball that would go straight. This ball is designed to have hook potential so you are paying extra to have the hook potential on this ball. If you do not spin the ball or hook it then it will go straight but you are spending more money for features that you do not need.
Question:
Is this a good ball for beginner bowlers like myself?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Yes, this will work well for someone looking at their first performance ball. This works in medium to lighter oil conditions and it will not be such a drastic step up that it is hard to control. It helps you to get familiar with a performance ball and if later you needed to get something for heavier oil conditions then you can still have this option as a backup because at some point in the night the lanes will almost always get back to medium to light conditions and this would still be a great option then.
Question:
Would this ball be good for league nite and can it be used for med/heavy? I seen EJ Tacket rolled it on a bear pattern?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
It is very likely that at some point in the night during leagues this would be an excellent option. It is rated for medium to lighter oil so it may depend on how oily the lanes are to start the league night. You may need to start the night with something more suited to medium to heavier oil and then after a few games the lanes will have dried out some and you could transition to the Venom Shock to help in those later games.
Question:
This is ball a good ball for Two Handed bowling person
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Yes, this can be used by a two handed bowler. Typically two handed bowlers have higher revs so when this ball says it is good for light to medium oil, it may be better in medium oil only for someone with higher revs.
Question:
Does the 12 lb motiv Venom shock Boulevard have the same core as the 13 14 15 16
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Yes, Motiv keeps the same weight block throughout the different weights.
Question:
I am interested in graduating from a straight ball all the time to a small hook at the end. Would the Venom Shock be a good ball?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Yes, this ball would be good for someone looking to make a change from a straight ball to a ball with some hook potential. It is not going to be overly aggressive so you can still throw this fairly straight but if you get a lot of spin on your release then you could get a decent amount of hook potential from this ball.
Question:
when pre drilling, do I send you my spec sheet? And does the $39 include thumb switch grip and finger grips?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
When you are putting this item in your shopping cart it will take you to a drill sheet page for you to enter your measurements and drilling information. We do not currently offer Switch Grip options with our custom drilling. We have options to add finger inserts or a thumb slug but not switch grips.
Question:
I have the Venom Recoil. How is the Venom Shock different?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
They are going to be very similar with only a small difference in hook potential. They will get very similar lengths because they have the same out of box finish but the Venom Recoil will have a slightly stronger backend and slightly stronger overall hook.
Question:
Is the core in the 11 12 and 13 14 the same
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Yes, on Motiv they use the same core through all of the weights
Question:
Would the Jackel Ghost and this Venom Shock be a great 1 2 punch for a League
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Yes, the Ghost would work well in heavier oil conditions and the Shock will give you more length and work better in medium and lighter oil conditions for the later games.
Question:
I have a villain scorn, and I love the strong backend reaction it has. Does the Venom shock have a strong backend?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
If you wanted a more angular backend like the Villain Scorn then you may prefer the Fatal Venom. It has a pearl cover similar to the Villain Scorn and polished finish to give you more length and more angle.
Question:
My release is straight (no attempt to spin it). I love the venom because of it's color and flat finish (it is flat, correct?) So will it roll straight if I don't apply a twist of my wrist or is it going to curve a bit anyway you throw it? Ignorant question, I know. Thanks,
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
If you throw the ball straight without any spin then the ball will go straight. It will only curve if you spin the ball with the correct release.
Question:
HOW DOES THIS BALL COMPARE TO THE BLACK WIDOW
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The Venom Shock is a mid performance ball with a Symmetric weight block and it works in medium to lighter oil conditions. The Black Widow 2.0 is an upper mid performance ball with an Asymmetric weight block and it works in medium to heavy oil. They are both solid coverstocks but the Venom Shock is a little smoother finish so it will have a little more length before it reacts on the lane.
Question:
Is this a good ball for a straight shot in any position
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
This ball is designed to have hook potential on medium to light oil but if you throw the ball straight, it will go pretty straight. You have to spin the ball to get it to have the hook potential.
Question:
Does a 12 pound bowling ball, have the same core at the 16 pound?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Yes, in Motiv bowling balls they keep the same weight block throughout all weights.
Question:
Is this bowl good for an older. Person that trows the bowl at 10 to 11 miles an hour
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Yes, this ball could still work well for you. This ball would probably be better in medium oil for your ball speed but if you ever needed to use it in lighter oil you could still get by with this but it may be a little strong in light oil for you.
Question:
Can you bowl a straight shot with the Venom Shock ball?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
You could technically throw this ball straight and it would go straight but the ball is designed to give you hook potential and you are paying more for this ball because of that hook potential. If you wanted a ball to go straight there are less expensive straight ball options.
Question:
On a typical House Shot...how does the Venom Shock compare to the Desert Tank?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Motiv breaks down each ball to give them a rating for Length, Backend, and (overall) Hook. The Venon Shock has Length-14, Backend-16.5, and Hook-50 while the Desert Tank has Length-12,Backend-13, and Hook-46. So the Venom Shock will be stronger and for this reason it can hand medium oil a little better while the Tank would be a little better the drier the lanes get.
Question:
Is this a good down and in ball or are there better options.
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
This ball could work but a better option would be the Fatal Venom because it has a pearl coverstock for more length and a polished finish which will give you more length and sharper backend hook. The Venom Shock will read a little earlier and have a slightly smoother reaction.
Question:
I am a Full roller as well as being a senior. Generally throw ball 14 mph. Is the venom shock a good ball ? Will be coming off knee surgery and thinking about 14 lb ball but concerned if it will have enough hitting power. Use 15 lb currently. Thank you!
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
This could be a great option for you if you are bowling in medium to lighter oil conditions. When you drop weight it will tend to lose some hitting power but 14lbs still have a great drive and this ball give you decent length out of the box so it will not roll out too early on you and still have good continuation.
Question:
In the picture in dosent say shock below the venom on the graphic will my ball have that when I get it or does it just not have the shock on the graphic at all?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Motiv initially did have the word Shock below Venom but they made a running change on the logo and removed the word Shock so it does not say this anymore. Here was this same ball on Motivs website to show how they have it listed also: <a href="https://www.motivbowling.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.motivbowling.com</a>/products/balls/light-medium-oil/venom-<a href="shock.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shock.html</a>
Question:
Is this a good ball for beginners learning to hook? Also is it to much of a difference to go from 12 lbs to 14lbs
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
This ball would be a good option for a beginner. It will have a decent hook potential in medium to lighter oil but it will not be too hard to control for someone just learning to hook the ball. Motiv keeps the same weight block in all weights so you would still get pretty similar reaction in both 12 and 14lbs but 12lbs will not carry as well just because of the weight.
Question:
Do they come with holes pre drilled or do you have to pay for it
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Hi T! This ball comes undrilled. We do offer drilling for $39.95 or you may have the ball drilled locally.
Question:
Which is more versatile the purple hammer or venom shock?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Hi! Both bowling balls are recommended for use in medium to lighter conditions but the reactions are much different. The Purple Hammer is designed to be a much smoother and milder hook reaction making it an easy to read bowling ball. The Venom Shock will give you more hook potential if you are looking for a stronger hook for more entry angle.
