Is it possible to have the hands too far back when coming to the launch position? When I come to my launch, you can see about half of my top hand behind my head, and the bat alomst wrapped around my head, can this be detrimental in any way? At launch I have my shoulders turned inwardabout 25-3o degrees I'm guessing, my hands slightly above and behind my back shoulder, should the hands be more forward, in front of my back shoulder instead, ort is this all the batter's personal preference? I just feel I can get more early batspeed with my hands back more, and it feels natural.
