Motiv Jackal Ghost V2
Some legends are never replaced—they are reborn. The Motiv Jackal Ghost has become one of the most trusted heavy oil bowling balls ever created. Nearly ten years after its original release, the legend returns as the Jackal Ghost V2, engineered to dominate today's lane conditions with even more traction and control.
The mission was simple: create a Jackal that performs in 2026 the same way the original Jackal Ghost performed in 2017. The Jackal Ghost V2 achieves exactly that by combining the proven Predator V2 core with the upgraded Leverage HFS Reactive coverstock. The result is earlier read in the oil, stronger traction, and the legendary smooth yet powerful backend motion that made the Ghost famous.
The renowned Predator V2 core remains unchanged. Featuring a low RG, massive differential, and nearly a decade of proven success at the highest level of competition, it continues to be one of the strongest asymmetrical cores available today.
The biggest evolution comes from the coverstock. While the original Jackal Ghost eventually became too clean for today's heavier oil volumes, the enhanced Leverage HFS Reactive cover provides significantly more grip without sacrificing the smooth benchmark motion bowlers have always loved.
Who should use the Jackal Ghost V2?
Speed Dominant
Players with higher ball speed will appreciate the earlier traction and stronger midlane read compared to the original Jackal Ghost while maintaining its smooth, continuous backend motion. It perfectly complements the Jackal Onyx by offering more length and stronger downlane continuation.
Balanced
Balanced bowlers will find the Jackal Ghost V2 to be an outstanding benchmark asymmetrical bowling ball. It provides excellent lane readability and can easily be adjusted through surface changes to match a wide variety of oil patterns.
Rev Dominant
For rev-dominant players, the Jackal Ghost V2 delivers exceptional traction on heavy oil without burning up too early. Compared to many strong asymmetrical balls, it stores more energy and produces a stronger, more continuous motion through the pins.
