Choosing the right bat size is essential for a player's comfort and performance. The bat should stand next to the player with the handle resting just below the hip joint. Use the guide below to help find the correct bat size based on height.

Start with the manufacturer’s instructions for your exact model and finish. Preparation requirements vary from bat to bat.
Check the instructions before oiling or knocking in. Factory preparation, including GM NOW! treatment where supplied, does not automatically mean a bat is ready for full match use.
Knocking in gradually conditions the blade for ball impact and can help reduce damage. It does not make willow crack-proof or guarantee a particular lifespan.
Our professional knocking-in service is an option for bats that need preparation. Check the service details and allow for the stated turnaround time.
Follow the manufacturer’s or workshop’s aftercare advice. Build up gently with an older, good-quality leather ball before harder net or match use.
Stop and check if seam marks leave deep indentations or damage appears. There is no single preparation time that suits every bat.
