COMMENTS

Likes: As with all MOTIV balls I get a very controllable ball motion with the new Raptor Attack. This one however is really STRONG!! Ball does a very good job of reading the midlane, even with the polished finish, so you get the length you need when the heads start to burn up but also just enough midlane read to give you the consistent reaction at the breakpoint your looking for whether it is on your THS or a flatter sport pattern. In my opinion the Raptor Attack has the strongest backend motion since the sigma tour with a little bit smoother breakpoint. I have used mine now on various surfaces and oil conditions and I have not found a condition yet that this ball can’t handle. Very versatile piece of equipment that you should have in your bag, does very good in blending patterns out when you start to see over/under during transition. If you looking to add a versatile ball to your arsenal with a STRONG predictable backend then look no further then the new MOTIV Raptor Attack.
