Therefore to put your hands in the position indicated by the picture above is going to help inflate those numbers on you.

A median, forward position is the best place.
I thought his arm was forward in that picture....

angles hard to tell

Koho, you generally want to open up the face of the glove to the shooter. creates a bigger blocking surface and means your glove is open and ready for the shot
