Engineered for light to medium oil, the Venom Panic is the first pearl ball ever released in the Venom series. This coral snake gets down the lane easily and strikes with a deadly response to friction.
The Gearâ„¢ core in the Venom Series has proven to be an incredible core design and has been utilized once again in the Venom Panic. The Gear core has a lower RG for easy revs and a lower differential to retain energy for outstanding continuation.
The new Turmoilâ„¢ MFP (Medium Friction Pearl) Pearl Reactive cover stock is engineered to provide more length than the Venom Shock and a more angular backend motion. The Coral pearl shell is tuned at the factory with a 5000 Grit LSP finish. This compliments the performance target of the new Turmoil MFP cover.
For the average bowler, the Venom Panic will provide excellent length and a strong backend with a smoother transition. High rev bowlers, in particular, will appreciate that smoother transition since some angular equipment can be too jumpy. Tournament bowlers will like the Venom Panic for the same reason, but also because it retains so much energy for proper continuation. It simply gets through the pins the right way on light to medium oil shots.

How does this compare to the Toxin? I have all 3 of the previous Venoms. All are drilled with the pin in the ring and the cg close to the center of the grip. The Shock also has a motion hole. My Vengeance is also drilled similar but with a p3 hole.
The Strike gives me the earliest, smoothest roll and handles oil the best. The Toxin gives me the most length and is somewhat skid/flippy. The Shock is somewhere in between.
Do you think this ball is a bit smoother than the Toxin, but still gets some decent length? Should I drill it the same as the other balls (although not going with a motion hole like the Shock)? Assuming all are drilled the same (as above, and based on the reactions I gave), what should I expect?
Definitely getting this regardless. The Toxin was my first Motiv ball and got me hooked. And I pretty much know what to expect when I pull any of the Venoms out of my bag.

Longest and strongest downlane of all the Venom balls.

Nice video as always Justin! Is the Panic a good step down for a Sigma Sting???
