The bottom of a batters elbows are generally midway between belt and shoulders, in a normal stance, or at rest. If you guys are not calling a strike unless it nicks the belt or is no more than a ball above you are not calling the high strike and cheating the defense. Stand in front of a mirror, spread your hand as wide as you can and touch the top of your belt with your middle fingertip. The top of your thumb will be appoximately same as bottom of your elbows. Call the hand and you will be calling the high strike. The hand will be at least two balls and close to three, above the belt.
