Prepare to be shocked by the unstoppable force of the MOTIV EVOKE – a ball that refuses to be overlooked. This all-new solid asymmetrical powerhouse demands your attention. Featuring vibrant colors, a revolutionary new core design, and the next evolution of an already triumphant coverstock system; the EVOKE is here to dominate heavier concentrations of oil.

Introducing the ferocious Overload Core, a dynamic asymmetrical marvel engineered to fill a strategic gap in the Motiv Bowling arsenal. Nestled between the formidable Predator V2 core of the Jackal series and the dominant Dominion core found in the Pride lineup, the Overload core hits the sweet spot tailored for the challenges of medium-heavy oil conditions. 

What makes this core so special is that it boasts the ability to change the differential with drilling by up to 25%, while also offering drilling options that will lower the differential. No previous MOTIV core could lower the differential of a drilled ball.  While many bowlers look for the most differential possible when drilling a ball, rev dominant bowlers are usually limited by the increased diff of drilled balls. As an upper-mid core that must be versatile, the Overload core is the perfect option for offering so much versatility. 

Paired with the Overload core is the new Leverage MXC Solid Reactive coverstock. This cutting-edge shell blends the renowned Leverage coverstock technology from the Black Venom with the aggressive components of the Forge Flare. This combination ensures superior traction in even the most challenging high-oil environments.

This cover features the new cutting-edge DuraMax Technology—an innovative additive meticulously crafted to prevent lane-shine, extending the lifespan of the coverstock. DuraMax technology ensures that the Evoke will consistently maintain its finish at a significantly longer rate without breaking down, refusing to succumb to wear and tear. With DuraMax, the Evoke becomes a beacon of resilience, outlasting expectations and guaranteeing an enduring performance.

Get ready to experience a new era of domination on the lanes with the Motiv Evoke.

WHEN TO USE:

  • Speed Dominant Bowlers - Speed dominant bowlers need traction on the lane to repeat with confidence.  However, there had previously been a large gap between the Jackal Ambush and the Pride Dynasty when trying to stay in slow response asymmetrical balls.  The Evoke is the perfect bridge between these two balls and a critical part of the progression for a speed dominant bowler.
  • Balanced Bowlers - Balanced bowlers will use the Evoke as a first ball out of the bag on lower friction lane surfaces.  With a coverstock that is easier through the front than a Jackal Ambush, but with a more substantial footprint on the lane than the balls in the line created for medium oil, the Evoke is a great benchmark for bowlers on higher concentrations of oil or on lower friction synthetic lane surfaces.
  • Rev Dominant Bowlers - A rev dominant bowler can use the Evoke as their heavy oil control ball without any need for more traction or control.  The Motiv Evoke will easily serve as a rev dominant player’s strongest asymmetrical ball in the bag and give them the traction and smooth response to friction needed on challenging or heavy oil conditions.

    First Solid Asym Like

    I don't get along with solid asymmetrical balls AT ALL. However, this ball is excellent in the early blocks. Typically I get too much reaction out of the solid cover stocks with asymmetrical balls, but Motiv did an excellent job with this ball, for me. It doesn't work very well on later blocks, like it doesn't have enough energy to make cleanly back to the pocket when I have to get FAR left. But up until that point, the shape and result are as consistent as I am, if I stay consistent.

    The Beach Ball

    Not only does this ball stand out with the crazy colors but it is backed up by performing on the lane. This ball is a great benchmark ball and is often one of the first balls out of my bag to get a read on the oil pattern for the night. The ball is super versatile and can tame a lane or conversely can help open up a lane as well. Even though the Evoke falls on the smoother side of the Motiv ball chart I think that this ball still provides great continuation.

    The ball I didn’t know I was missing!

    The Evoke may be the most surprised I have been after using a new release in quite some time. The combination of new core, new cover, and new colors left me with some uncertainty, but I cannot imagine my bag without this ball.

    Based on recommendations, I drilled my Evoke fairly strong with a 60 x 5 x 20 layout. This positioned the pin quite high above the fingers with the MB above the thumb with the intent of strengthening the drilled differential with the new core technology.

    Out of box the Evoke was quite strong, but still very continuous. After a few games of use, the coverstock began to take down and the Evoke turned into a solid shaped cover that would read the oil but maintain a continuous forward reaction downlane. The Evoke has been a great fit between the strong motion of the Jackal Ghost and the slightly smoother Pride Dynasty & Raptor Fury.

    The color swirl of the Evoke is oddly satisfying! Though I was skeptical of this ball’s intended motion & shelf appeal, the Evoke has surprised me with its success on the lanes and sales performance in the pro shops. I’m looking forward to keeping this ball in my bag between the Jackals, the Primal Shock, and the Venoms!

    Evoke a Reaction

    I have heard this ball be called a few things with the colors being what they are. The most common when I place it on the rack is The Beach Ball. Call it what you want, Just know that it Strikes, and Strikes and Strikes some more.

    Upon reading up on this ball and then drilling it I was hopeful to get something that would be just a tick, a literal tick cleaner than the Jackal Ambush and that is exactly what I got. The jury was a tad undecided immediately off the press. But once a couple of games were bowled with it the ball shaped and started striking right into form.

    Very Pleased with this addition to my bag and I recommend anybody needing a replacement for their Ambush or is looking for Stronger Asym Solid for their bag to get an EVOKE.
