Not a huge surprise since red was incorporated in both the Jackal and Jackal Carnage. Was hoping for something that had a little more... uniqueness to it, but that's not bad.

Already up on the Motiv website too.

http://www.motivbowling.com/products/balls/jackal-le.html

With some interesting ratings.

Length: 12 - Same as the Jackal and Jackal Carnage, one less than the Trident.

Hook: 60 - Three more than the Jackal, two more than the Jackal Carnage, and one more than the Trident.

Backend: 16 - Same as the Jackal Carnage and Trident, .5 less than the Jackal.

Motiv's numbers here are usually pretty accurate, so what we should be looking at is an even stronger Jackal Carnage. It might have a bit different roll to it given the changes to the core, but...  :o

Also has a price listed at $299.99 while the Trident is $259.99. Makes me wonder if some kind of limited quantity is going to be available to buy directly.

Theyll be $199 if they go to the online retailers. They gotta make their money back. They would be stupid to try not to sell it.

Maybe it'll be exclusive for awhile...but they'll "by popular demand" bring to the masses.

So when will we who ordered the LE get the e-mail that it has been sent to the PO and that we can go pick it up now?
Or do I just ask my PO about the ball and give him the number or whatever and then get the ball?

From e-mail with the ticket number:
You will be notified when the exact release date is known. You will also receive other updates as details about this special MOTIV ball release are available.
"*** CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE FOR SALE ***"

Guess that answers my question.
Damn, I'll have a lot of balls for this season :P
Will still use my 2 EBI balls, and getting 2 DV8 balls in September. And then this LE ball.

When I received my first ball I traded in(Revolt Havoc), my PSO and I both got an email when it shipped. And it was delivered directly to the Pro Shop.

Maybe the shops that had stocked up on Jackal Carnages and Jackals will be getting Jackal LEs to replace them too. I haven't paid much attention to that side of the situation.
