The most angular asymmetric ball ever created by MOTIV
« on: March 16, 2020, 09:48:09 AM »
The Trident Nemesis was designed to create lots of angle down lane.  This asymmetric ball wrap in the Infusion HV (high volume) pearl reactive cover stock will give you the shape you want on those higher volume oil patterns!  The Sidewinder weight block (asymmetrical) will also give you lots of drilling options too given the impending balance hole rule change in August 2020.  This is a good looking ball which really does the job of giving me traction in the oil, shape down the lane and powerful continuation through the pin deck.  It’s a must in my bag!!

Of course it is, at least until the next one comes along...

Word on the street is they're (all manufacturers) developing that one now with the megatrak ultra hook (insert buzz word) cover with the new R&D core that's mega angular off the spot...........................while being super smooth and controllable.

Pre-order yours today!

They never work for the average Joe like they do for the staffers or in the videos. You need to decide for yourself if the ball is for you. Just look at past similar equipment you have owned and that should tell you.
Balls: Motiv Jackal Ambush, Motiv Trident Abyss, Motiv Mythic Jackal, Motiv Trident Odyssey, Motiv Hydra and Motiv Plastic Jackal. All made in the USA.

I'm waiting for the one that doesn't even need a ball return. Just strikes, makes a U-turn and comes right back.

I own one and like it. I have had some decent scores with it. It's still just a bowling ball.

I am not a one brand kind of guy at all. I currently own Hammer, Brunswick, Storm, Roto Grip,Radical, Ebonite, Track, AZO, PBS, Columbia, AMF, Global, whatever, you get the picture.

Other than the Venom Shock, I have yet to see a Motiv ball that creates a motion that I just have to have! They are all pretty much the same motion to me! Never have I seen a Motiv ball hit, and go...."Oh WOW! What was that? I have to have it!!

But....that's just me, I guess!

I respectfully disagree... You should try the Tank Blitz and compare it with a Supra, or maybe a Forge Fire with a Trident Nemesis? After releasing hit after hit around 2 or 3 years ago maybe they weren’t releasing the great balls they used to, but the last year they have been releasing amazing stuff. That’s just me.

Yup, it's just you. The rest of us deal with reality.

Call me a homer, but the Tank Blitz and the Supra are two balls i'd recommend people check out if looking at the Motiv Catalog.

The Blitz is absurdly early, but still continues well, it's very SPEC cover like in how early it is.

The Supra (likely thanks to it's rocket high RG) is close to flippy, which is NOT something Motiv has been good at, and as much as I do like my Nemesis, it's not the strong and angular big brother to the Supra it's marketed to be.

Hit harder? No. But I'm going to agree that the Blitz is as awesome as awesome gets. The Nemesis doesn't seem super angular compared to the Supra, but they're trying to zero in on the Storm reaction. They're getting closer, imo

I have my sources, and I'm getting motivated for a reason. Mama Doom didn't raise a fool lol.
