how important is it to get your hands opposite your right shoulder as a hitter
Hello I'm new to hitting and have been having a very hard time getting my hands opposite my ight shoulder at the top of the backswing. How important is this position? I feel that I'm doing it correctl, then when I video tape myself I see my hands being about 4-5 inches behind. I tried correcting it but I seems that I hit the ball much better with my hands behind my shoulder.

I have lost at least 15 yards by transitioning over to hitting while feeling better compression of the ball. Is his normal?
