In simple terms, generally speaking, yes.
That doesn't mean you should completely avoid it, many of the best DPS pieces around have hit on them, and taking the optimal gear will often give you more than 9% hit. Hit also offers smoother rage generation, which affects dps in a way that's hard to model. That said, I believe you should not be aiming to get more hit, and hit should not be the deciding factor in which gear you choose. You should almost never be socketing hit (it's quite easy to get 9% without gems), and Crit, Str, ArP (in some order, which will vary depending on your current gear) are the stats to aim for. Haste is also better than hit when you have +9% hit.
