Motiv
The Motiv Lethal Venom is an asymmetrical solid bowling ball from Motiv, released in February 2025. It has the Leverage MXC Solid coverstock and the Gear APG weight block, finished at 3000 Grit LSS out of the box. At 15 lb its RG is 2.47, with a differential of 0.036 and a PSA of 0.013.
Among the 194 balls here with a 15 lb version, its RG is medium, and its differential is low, for less flare and a steadier motion. Motiv rates it 51 for length, 62 for backend and 60 for hook, out of 100: it starts to hook mid-lane, turns moderately at the breakpoint and hooks moderately overall, with at least 3 inches of flare potential. Motiv's ball guide puts it on light-medium oil, with a very smooth motion.
