Harrow suits taller juniors and adults up to roughly 5'6\", Short Handle covers most adults between 5'6\" and 6'0\", and Long Handle, Long Blade and LB\/LH add reach for players above that. The Force G1 is made in the 1,180 to 1,250 g range. Because the profile is a high, extended spine with a feather-light pickup, this bat carries its weight higher than the number suggests, so most batters find they can take a heavier listed weight here than they would in a flatter bat. Pick the weight you can still play a full straight drive with at the end of a long innings, not the one that feels good for two shots in the shop.

More grains generally means the cleft has been growing longer, which presses to a firmer face and the rebound that leather-ball players are paying for. Small natural marks and slight colour variation are normal even at this grade and do not affect play.
