I’m 5’9” and fought this battle for quite a while. My biggest issue was feeling like that bird that had to return to the cage, when given freedom! I couldn’t wrap my brain around giving up my mounted toms. I had just figured catchyrims and missing hats was part of being at my level of play. I did this for 35 years.
I started to take lessons and some of my lessons required me to be super fast between drums, hats, ride, so distance became my enemy. Even with the 10/12 offset setu, hats, crash and ride were too high and too far. With a lot of grumbling I shed the 10” and realized only then how much better I played with proper ergonomics. I’d just never had the reason to change I suppose, but with time some of the shoulder, neck and back discomforts subsided and I stopped hitting rims and missing hats and cymbals. Things just seemed natural, so I can’t even bring myself to move my hats to the left ant to fit in a 10” again.
You may not be able to set your drums up flat due to height, but at least from what I can see ergonomics are ergonomics. Lose the 10 if you have to to be comfortable. It just isn’t worth it. Go with ergonomics first. Wish I wasn’t so pigheaded about my rack toms for so long.
