DV8 Captiv8 Bowling Ball Review

Welcome back to another Modern Bowling Ball Review! We have our ball tester Chris showcasing the DV8 Captiv8!

DV8 Captiv8 Bowling Ball

DV8 is ready to conquer medium to dry conditions with the new Captiv8. This new DV8 piece features the hottest new cover on the market, HK22, with Inciter Pearl for great length and a strong backend move. HK22 is known for its performance and how it adds depth and clarity to the colors. The gold, silver, and emerald stand out; you’ll notice the colors from a distance. The Captiv8 also brings a new core design to the DV8 line, with a higher RG and a medium differential. The new Captiv8 core and HK22 – Inciter Pearl cover will be hard to beat when the lanes have seen some wear.
