How To Properly Grip Your Mouse Explained (Improve Your Aim)

Palm Mouse Grip Style

This is the most relaxing of the grip styles. I recommend this for those who tense up too much when they aim even. The palm grip style is literally that. You have your palm do the work and you move your arm. This I would say is harder on higher sensitivity settings.

thumb is on the side for more dexterity little/pinky finger resting on the other. Again this is more of an arm so lower sensitivity play. Unsure how one would manage a higher sensitivity with consistency but I have seen it done.

So let us discuss pros and cons

Pros: Relaxed grip style where you don’t have to worry about tensing up to make a shot. Better for larger movements.

Cons: Less precision on higher sensitivities. Lower sensitivity in general can cause shoulder pain.

Fingertip Mouse Grip Style (My personal favorite)

They say this is the fastest of the grip styles. I can see that because it requires the most tension. You are essentially touching most with your fingertips only. Hence fingertip grip. Your palm DOES NOT touch the back. Claw and fingertip get confused too much together.

Pros: Can have master movement because of the higher tension, I believe this has the highest ceiling for success.

Cons: It is said it is harder to master. I don’t agree with this statement. But talking with friends who palm personally says it's a weird adjustment. Fingertip is not your natural go to style FYI. Because no one naturally grabs a mouse that way. You usually place your hand on the mouse and relax.

Claw Mouse Grip Style

Claw grip gets mistakes so much for fingertips. It is like a fingertip but the back of your palm meets the back of the mouse. In my opinion blends both Palm and fingertip. You are essentially getting the best of both worlds.
Pros: Can be really stable for longer range shots and can be a blend of palming and fingertip

Cons: It can be hard to do broader strokes in my opinion with the mouse. People do it all the time. But because you are clawing you mentally have to shift in a weird way from fingertip to moving then with your palm. While fingertip you are really gliding around more.

Quick note about fingertip grip: With a low sens it can really add a ton of unique speed and dexterity, it is what you have been seeing mostly on screen.
