Since 2017, the legendary Jackal Ghost has been reigning terror on heavy oil. With paranormal performance, it delivers more total hook potential than any previous Jackal with no loss in continuation. It's scary good! The Predator V2 weight block, first used on the Jackal LE, is now at the core of the Jackal Ghost. Featuring a low RG and loads of differential, this asymmetric design is easy to rev and produces massive track flare.

Combining the physics of the Predator V2 with the chemistry of the new Coercion HFS (High Friction Solid) cover stock, the Jackal Ghost elevates heavy oil performance to a new level. Coercion HFS is the most aggressive cover stock to date on a bowling ball in the Jackal product line. Turned with a 3000 Grit Lss Finish, bowlers will see both excellent mid-lane read and unbelievable continuation.

Obviously the Jackal Ghost will be a go-to ball for bowlers that want to see more hook without sacrificing continuation on higher volumes of oil. It will also be ideal for bowlers that have a low rev rate or higher ball speeds.

WHEN TO USE: 

  • Speed Dominant - For a bowler with high ball speed or those with lower rev rates, the Jackal Ghost serves as an outstanding benchmark option due to the cleaner cover and controllable motion down lane.  The versatility of drilling offered by the Predator V2 also makes the Ghost a great benchmark piece for speed dominant bowlers. 
  • Balanced - Players who are balanced in their speed to rev rate ratio find the Ghost to be a must have for fresh oil and longer patterns.  The Jackal Ghost is ideal for balanced bowlers to use in a variety of lower friction environments. 
  • Rev Dominant - Over the past several years AJ Johnson and EJ Tackett have proven that the Jackal Ghost is a must have for the rev dominant player.  Due to the coverstock being moderately clean, a rev dominant player is able to use the Jackal Ghost without worrying about it “burning up” or getting too forward down lane like so many heavy oil asymmetrical balls

    Smooth operator

    This ball bends the corner very smooth, almost deceptively smooth and has a good amount of miss room to work with. It handles medium to lighter oil (contrary to popular belief) very well and will go as far inside as you need to be. This ball is the perfect compliment to the Black Venom as a ball down. It's not angular at all but again just has a nice smooth continuous motion to kaboom-ville.

    Great Ball!

    I recently got back into bowling after a year away from it. I bought this ball and instantly improved my average by 15 pins. Best ball I've thrown and I look forward to adding more Motiv equipment to my arsenal.

    I would recommend this to a friend

    Best ball ever made

    I just recently created a Motiv account here; but I’ve been bowling with nearly all Motiv equipment for several years now. The Jackal Ghost is the oldest ball in my bag. I’ve changed the surface to multiple different grits, I’ve even thrown it with an 5500 polish, and I detox it. It’s so versatile and the most trusted ball I’ve ever had. I couldn’t even begin to put a number on the games it has on it. Hundreds and hundreds. I honestly want another one.

    Still Slaps!

    Almost 7 years on the market and the Jackal Ghost continues to age like a fine wine!

    I may have even reviewed this ball previously on this site. Don’t care, it’s still amazing and unlike any other!

    The Jackal Ghost is the most versatile asymmetrical high performance ball I have ever used. Using multiple layouts and different surface preps, this ball always keeps me lined up on fresh & transitioning heavier oil patterns.

    Find out for yourself why the Jackal Ghost has found a home in the Motiv lineup and held strong for 7 years, longer than any other asymmetrical high performance ball made by any manufacturer.

    This ball is as good as ever

    I had one of these originally in 2017 and wow was it good! I shot 822 and had 2 300s with it in the first month and could always rely on this ball for the fresh or if I needed predictable ball motion when the shot got tough. I stepped away from the sport in early 2020 and I'm just now coming back and yup its still just as good! I decided to drill a new one and it was like having your favorite meal after a while, just as good as you remember if not better. This ball takes surface changes extremely well also so don't be afraid to play around and tune the cover for your game. I personally like to take mine down to 2000 because really like my ball to roll earlier and do less in the back part of the lane.
