I claw my mouse(deathadder) but the back of my palm is on the back of my mouse(on the back tip of the mouse not on the bump but basically where the mouse ends). As far as I know a true claw grip doesnt have the user touching the mouse with his palm. So am I using a hybrid grip of claw/palm or some new weird grip? lol

BLAOW!!!!

It's called a Fingertip grip. (I think).

My grip is weird too. Its not a claw grip, but my fingers are elevated and the back of the mouse isn't touching my palm. Feels like its closer to a claw grip though

I call mine the "lazy grip". The end of my palm rests on the mousepad and I only move the mouse with my fingers. My hand is sort of in a state between claw and palm.

I also claw especially on CSGO but on a Mamba, just like the Deathadder, it would be a sin not to palm on it. it just feels amazing.  :D

Mine is pretty similar, and I just call it a hybrid. Most of the weight is held with my thumb and pinky, while the back of my palm (near the wrist) is on the rear end of the mouse. One thing to note is that you will likely HATE logitech mice because of this, lol. They make mice purely for palm grips it seems.

If you palm is touching mouse all the time then it's claw grip. There's of course variation how ppl are clawing mouse. Like using kinda hybrid. In finger grip you basicly don't touch mouse with palm. I don't get how someone can be accurate with that grip. But then again I use high dpi-low sense combo.
