The all new Forge™ is the strongest symmetrical ball ever created by MOTIV®.   Born from the fires of the Revolt™, the Forge™ is built for a smooth motion on medium-heavy oil conditions.  Creating impressive control and outstanding continuation, casual bowlers will love the massive hook potential and competitive bowlers will appreciate the control.

The brand new Detonator™ weight block provides a low RG and high differential to create easy revs and massive amounts of flare.  Reverb™ outer core material surrounds the new Detonator™ core to provide explosive hitting power.

One of the strongest covers ever developed by MOTIV®, Coercion™ HFS provides traction in the heaviest of oil, a smooth response to friction, and outstanding continuation.  The Forge™ is tuned with a 3000 Grit LSS finish to complement the motion created by Coercion HFS reactive technology.

    Just like I had imagined

    The Forge was the first ball I had purchased new and it did everything I imagined it would do. I didn't plan on using it for two handing but as I'm learning to do so the ball reacted perfectly. There was always a "wow" factor when I bowled with it and watching the hook effortlessly flow.

    I would recommend this to a friend

    Smooth, predictable, chews on oil

    I drilled mine full roller to use on tougher tournament patterns. The full roller layout keeps the ball from over reacting. The cover stock reads the entire lane and still keeps the ball working. The weight block motors the ball through the pins with awesome continuation. Even though I throw 14# balls and my Forge is drilled full roller, this ball still punishes the pocket.

    Not my favorite Motiv, but an awesome benchmark!

    Smooth rolling, nice back end. Doesn't leave a ton of corners, but definitely not the ball for a snappy house!

    Forge a bond with higher scores!

    The Forge is a heavy rolling, smooth and predictable, really hard hitting ball. In heavier oil or when oil has been pushed to the back end, particularly by urethane, this ball really shines. The reliable shot shape, traction and continuous back end make this an easy ball to trust.
