Long or short handle?

[goldleaf]

I'm 6ft 1 & a bit of a slogger. Would a short handle bat be ok for me or long handle be a better choice? Help appreciated thanks

I have two bats one Long Handle and one Long bat.The advantage I see is it is little more comfortable in the crease (as I don't have to bent more . which helps when you play long innnings.

Go with the short handle, because long handles are a bit difficult to slog with, I mean once connected long handles make the ball travel more distance but short handles are easy to connect becoz of their lesser mass and they provide better swing than the long handles, mangoose can be an example of the above lines!

Concept of mongoose is different.It s not be confused with lh.That is small portion of bat in turn generates more bat speed like a golf club.
