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

    Heavy Oil G.O.A.T.

    OK, as long as I have been throwing Motiv, this is the one ball that I should have gotten a long time ago! The Versatility of the Ghost is hands down the Best in the Market for the Heavy Oil Lineup!
    The Predator V2 Asymmetrical core and the Coercion HFS Reactive cover is the perfect combination! There is a reason why this ball has been in the market for the past 5 years and counting! And it better not go anywhere!
    I throw a 14lbs. Ball. With the RG @ 2.51, Diff @ .049, and MB Diff @ .014, Drilled at 60 X 5 1/4 X 35 and being a lefty, I can crank it at 25 board, out to 5 board and in, with 385revs at 17mph. Or I can flatten my wrist out and square up, and throw it 10 board up to 5 board and in, with 350revs at 17.5mph. On a Typical House Shot! I can't wait to throw this at a tournament!

    I Do Not Recommend this ball to a friend, I can say, don't do what I did, and wait this long to get this ball! It is Amazing, and should be in the bag of Every Bowler! So I can recommend this ball to EVERYONE!!!!

    Best ball on the market.

    The Ghost is hands down the best ball I've ever thrown. I have two of them. Both pin up. One has a little surface(2000), the other is at box. As a 52yr old, low rev, speed dominate bowler, I find that I can throw this on almost any medium-heavy oil pattern. When nothing else seems to work, It seems like I can always go to my Ghost and trust it to do what I need it to do.
    For me it falls more on the angular side of the ball guide, but I play straighter in the dry portion of the lanes and tend to stay away from steep angles in the heavier oil. This is the first ball you need to get, If you bowl on medium-heavy oil. You won't be disappointed!

    Hits like a truck

    First off I’m new to the sport. And was recently asked to join the local league. After asking around and going online, I knew the Ghost was the ball I wanted. Now while I haven’t come close to perfecting my release I’m unable to get much hook out of it (100% human error) I am amazed every time I hit the pins. I average about 17 mph ball speed and this ball hits like a truck. I have picked up so many extra pins because of how powerful this ball goes through them. I’m a believer and customer for life!!!

    Best ball I’ve ever used

    I got out of bowling for a good while but decided to try it again. I bought 2 other brands and they weren’t working for me. I decided to give the Jackal Ghost a try and absolutely fell in love with the brand. It gives the shape I want. I can miss right and the ball has a strong enough cover and core to come back and hit pocket. I absolutely love this ball and will continue to buy Motiv products.

    Best Asymmetric Ball Ever Made!

    The Ghost is the most versatile asymmetric ball on the market and has been around for so long for a reason. It sees the middle part of the lane hard and still produces a great amount of shape even with a heavier amount of oil. Very strong and controllable.
