This is how I set up with my hands forward (this is not me, I don't know how to take photos like this):

This is how I was swinging but it didn't go as far:

It seems with the forward angle of my hands the club is delofted and it goes so much further. |
I honestly believe that that the position of your hands at address isn't really important. At impact? Of course, but the position at address should just allow one to be comfortable in one's setup and thus start a sequence that will lead to the hands being ahead at impact.
I know some people will talk about mimicking impact, but if that were important then explain why it's only important for the hands and not for the rest of the body...
