Had a discussion with a  Batmaker earlier  this season re long handles he told me that more players inc the  6ft plus guys and pros are opting for S/H this season.

You have to try it. I liked my focus I got off @Vitas Cricket but I tend to rest my bottom hand on the shoulders. I found it difficult to use batting properly  .

I bought a kudos SPS and since I tried to hold it higher to feel same as regular SH, I do find that I dont have much control I always prefer to hold the bat just an inch from the shoulder to feel right, so maybe the shorter blade versions are just not for me. I also tried to hold it lower at just 1 inch from shoulder as I do for a regular SH, but I have been getting yorked that way. Its a shame I cant use it for this reason given that the willow pings beautifully. Will stick to regular SH only in future.
