The most sought after crossover in MOTIV® history is here with the introduction of the Primal™ Shock! Combining two of MOTIV®’s greatest releases, the Primal Rage and Venom Shock, the Primal Shock takes the best of both balls to create something truly special. Turmoil MFS cover technology from the Venom Shock and the Impulse V2 core from the Primal Rage combine to provide strong mid-lane traction with plenty of angle down lane. The Primal Shock dominates medium to heavy oil conditions, offering a vast array of options to attack the lanes. This is a can’t miss combination that bowlers have been asking for since 2013!

Turmoil MFS technology has been a benchmark for MOTIV, providing moderate mid-lane traction with plenty of down lane motion. Featured in the longest running MOTIV ball of all time, the Venom Shock, this cover perfectly balances control and aggression. This is the pinnacle of benchmark ball motion.

The Primal Shock takes the ultimate benchmark ball motion found in the Venom Shock and amps up performance by pairing it with the strong Impulse V2 core found in the Primal Rage. This core creates incredibly strong down-lane motion and marks a significant upgrade in overall core strength from the Gear core found in the Venom Shock. When paired with the Turmoil MFS cover, the result is a medium-heavy and moderately angular monster that is a must have in every bag.

WHEN TO USE:

  • Speed Dominant Bowlers - Many speed dominant bowlers are unable to use balls with differentials as low as the Venom Shock. A more dynamic core allows these bowlers to use the same cover stock, but with a motion that suits them. The Primal Shock will be a moderately angular complement to a speed dominant bowler’s benchmark ball. This will be an outstanding first transition ball for bowlers with excessive speed or lower rev rates.
  • Balanced Bowlers - The Venom Shock is a balanced bowler’s dream. It’s been the benchmark ball for those bowlers for years now and will continue to be. Over the years, many balanced bowlers have said that they’d like a more angular Venom Shock and one that could create more down lane motion. The Primal Shock is that ball.
  • Rev Dominant Bowlers - The highest rev rate and lowest speed bowlers will use the Primal Shock on fresh oil and high volume patterns when they need to create some angle. Before the rev dominant players can get all the way into the angular pearls, a Primal Shock will allow for easy mid-lane read and moderate angle to start opening up their angles on transitioning lanes.

    Excelent bowl to start

    I just bought to play in my league and the truth is that it works excellent when the line is newly oiled.

    Tournament ball

    My ball driller recommended this ball for the nationals shot in Vegas. He couldn’t been more right. I bowled my highest series ever in the 25 years of going to nationals. Great ball, get lined up and just hit pocket and pins are gone.

    Getting MOTIVATED during lunch, Motiv Primal

    As I am new to the Motiv line this year, I decided to practice during Friday lunch with my current new Motiv arsenal. As I work my way through my arsenal from the Jackal Ambush, Evoke, then the Motiv Primal, I shot a 300 game with the Motiv Primal swinging a nice tight loop setting the ball at 19, Crossing the arrows at 14, then reading up the lane about 10 then breaking and rolling into the pocket. Posted my 300 game on Facebook the Primal works very good on a fresh house shot as well as on the national doubles and single shot this year..

    Best League Ball Ever!

    I had high hopes with this ball going into league last year (I actually drilled it the day before league started) and I was not disappointed. For the first time in my 40 years of bowling, I finished a 36 week league with an average over 230 (231 to be exact) with two 800s shot (THS). The interesting part is, due to a release funk I had developed, I lowered my rev rate for half of the league, and then increased rev rate and ball speed for the rest. Shot 800 with both methods. Most nights I was able to continue moving left and use this ball all night as it's goes extremely long for a solid ball without a polished surface. Love it! One of the best balls I've ever thrown. I've had a few bowlers tell me they bought one after watching me throw it.
