Tried hook grip again for Deadlift 😥
Survived the warmups to 90kg but its still bloody awful. Didn't fancy trying 3x5@ 107 with it, but reverse grip may be workable.
As with everything, you need to persist with it. I use it and now have to think twice when not using it as it is my default. Someone else here had success with it too.
Each to their own, whatever works for you works for you!
I know comfort and enjoyment aren't prerequisites for barbel training, but hook grip is going to take a bit of adapting to. The bar knurling is a bit savage, so some tape may help.
