i go a few inches lower than that but everyones groove is different , the main thing is to find the groove that is best for you . to many of the young guys just do what someone tells them or copy the biggest bencher they see you have to experiment in the gym to find the proper hand spaceing ,groove,deadlift style,etc. for yourself .In-Human said:

My grip is pointer on the smooth...or maybe even a tad wider. My shoulders are broader than some though.
I feel that if you go too close...you aren't really working your triceps that much at all but stressing your joints too much. There comes a point where you need to put your body in the best mechanical position in order to use optimal poundages to stimulat the most growth.
This is me doing some reps on the close grip..after doing two other exercises for overheads.

I've got really long arms (I'm 6'4") and I usually have my ring finger on the power rings.
