Why Motiv?
Main reason, everything is made here in the USA in Michigan.
Otherwise, their equipment is not designed for one style of bowler. All of their products can be tweeked to suit all levels of play. At a Test Drive event I held in CT, we had a wide variety of bowlers and ages, first time bowlers to competitive tournament bowlers. The balls fit all styles and levels.
The covers on the balls are designed to last. The balls can easily be brought back to life easier and react just like the first day you purchased the ball. With many of the other brands, the covers do die no matter what you do.
Motiv also is the only company to have the neo mark graphic on the ball. There are no grooves or inscribed logos. The ball is completely smooth. The logo is a part of the ball.
I would suggest locating a local staffer, or even just have a discussion with your pro shop about the brand.
