Built for the no-thumb game. DV8 is the go-to brand for the fastest-growing group in bowling — no-thumb bowlers — and the Dark Side Curse is crafted specifically for them. It's not flashy, won't skid-flip, and isn't for the heaviest oil, but it'll quickly become the most-used ball in any no-thumb arsenal.

Offering unmatched control and consistency, the Dark Side Curse helps rev-dominant or speed-deficient players put up big scores across a wide range of conditions, using patent-pending core technology built to maximize the no-thumb game.

Who It's For

• No-thumb players — control and consistency tuned to your release.
• Rev-dominant bowlers — predictable shape that won't over-hook.
• Speed-deficient players — big scores across a wide range of conditions.
