Mouse for big hands....

yer it comes up every other week but indulge me.....

Need a nice new mouse to replace my MX315 (or what ever it was) seen as I threw it out my window earlier when it kept getting me raped in BF2142.... :rolleyes:

Has £10 off right now, but not sure on it's size. The G9 is also on offer too, again unsure on size. Putting price aside for now (unless one of those two is very large), which mouse is best suited to a large handed palmer?

Is this your old mouse ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logitech_MX-518

If so a G9, G400 or G500 are similar size.

That's the one yes HAHA, I couldn't be bothered to travel out in the rain to get it back and find out. I find it to be about 2cm (guess) to small to palm and my pinky trails on the desk and slows me down somewhat.

This should help you with the sizes.

Seems from those pictures that the Kone is the biggest? Are there any larger than the Kone?

The the RAT 7 be a good choice for large hands?

That looks rather large.

Yep the Saiteks look quite a bit bigger

the g9 is tiny, wouldn't go for that.

I got big hands. Now using a Qpad 5K. Nice and big, and my pinky doesn't drag on the mat anymore.

Many thanks. One of the reviews mentioned it was good for "claw grip" gamers, are you a palmer or claw?

I much prefer palming due to carpal tunnel

Sounds like my review

more palm than claw grip. I'm trying to change that. The mouse is good for either. The finger support is very good.
