In a standard hitting procedure how long should the backswing be? I feel as if mine is very short (arms maybe at 10 o clock) but any longer and I lose control
Is there an optimum to maximise float loading? What length do other hitters have?

I would not make it longer than the top.

It is the Barclay preview teaser and at 50 secs in Rob Noel shows a student where top is. Lots of other good stuff on the clip too.
Float Loading can be done by both Hitters and Swingers but better for a Swinger because A- more time to load on the down stroke and B- instant acceleration from the startdown (from his 'End') creates a better float load. Hitters are better off drive loading behind the shaft and mashing the clubhead thru the ball into low point- the whole reason for the "top' position, direct straight line drive. But as Homer said- 'Can be done, but
nothing but difficult execution."
Bambam just posted this morning pictures of three hitters at their top positions...see the latest post in this thread below. Thanks Ben for doing that for me

It depends on the amount of "Lag" you load and your ability to sustain (or accelerate). The more the "Lag", the tougher to be sustained (or easier to be thrownaway), therefore, the shorter the backswing (is supposed to be). 10 o'clock isn't bad at all, as long as the "shaft bent/heaviness feel" can be visualized/felt through impact.
__________________ Yani Tseng, Go! Go! Go! Yani Tseng Did It Again! YOU load and sustain the "LAG", during which the "LAW" releases it, ideally beyond impact.
"Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一).
The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
"Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn. Bend the shaft.
