Never gave it much thought until today, but it makes a noticeable difference. Mine has a 6" or so hole in it too. I know a lot of guys go for super loose on the batter side, how about reso?
For me, with mic inside the drum, even with EMAD batter very loose, it still sounds ringy/boomy with a pillow in there. The reso was quite tight though. I've been working it down but ran out of time.
