So I just don't get on with my mouse, I think it's because its too small.

My hands measure 20cm from base of palm to top of middle finger and 11cm across at widest point. Is this "large"?

I have a grip somewhere between claw and fingertip at work where my mouse is slightly larger than at home. But at home, when I am gaming I have a real mega claw grip and it just doesn't seem comfortable. I think the mouse is just too small.

What mouse should I be using??

P.S. I don't need wireless or MMO buttons.
 
I'm about the same size and use a similar grip - The biggest problem I find with most mice is that they have a recess for the thumb that makes the grip too narrow.

The three I got on best with are: the Roccat Kova which is quite low to the desktop; the CoolerMaster Storm Inferno which is just thumping-big; and the Logitech G700S which is a nice comfortable size and the one I choose for my home rig.
The Roccat Kone fills the hand well though, as does their Tyon and Logitech's G900.
The original Steelseries WOW mouse (the 16 button version) was the most comfortable of all, but felt like flimsy plasticky cack.

Same here! grip feels tight and narrow! Thanks for help
 
Just a heads up, I went into a physical "PC Planet" store. Tried about 25 mice over the course of an hour. Ended up going with the roccat kone aimo, just felt perfect for me. ticked all the boxes. It was a near tie between that and the Logitech G402. But the Roccat pipped it for comfort.

Have to ask, do you keep accidentally pressing that T3 button?

Consider switching to a trackball. Either a Kensington Elite (with or without scroll ring) or a Kensington Expert Mouse (which is actually a trackball. I have large hands (size 10 gloves) and get on well with all three.
 
I loved my death adder for my spade hands but the left click button physically broke after less than a year. Using a cheap spare still right now and wary about another Razer.

I’ve had mine for years. Must be 5 at least. Maybe 10. Last mouse I had before it was an intellipoint from the 90s.
