Not the cheapest, but it will save you a seperate stand, and your wood hoops
Because it has a rubber finish on the contact surface which clamps on the hoops.
It's like it's made for wood hoops, but it's also nice to keep your metal hoops undamaged.
I clamped it on the resonance side at "7 'o clock" near the bottom, with the flex-arm pointing diagonally upwards toward the center, with a AKG D112 basedrum mic. in it (which is a clunky, heavy mic.)
Played a few hours, looked at it the next day and the nor the clamp nor the flex arm moved an inch.
So it's good. Keeps the position. Looks very sexy too.
That's one less piece of clutter in front of your kit.
The flex-arm is long enough to reach the center of the biggest size basedrums, and bend inside the port.
In fact, if you use a 20" or less, you'd probably want to screw a shorter flex arm on it -if you just mike the center of the resonance batter from outside and don't reach inside via a port.
Shorter flex-arms are even better in holding their position, but: too short to bend inside the drum port.
It's all standard mic. threads on this thing, so no worries about attaching other, aftermarket microphone related flex-arms.
That variability to switch the flex-arms is the big advantage of these type of clamps.

A game changing kick mic mount
I have used LP-Claws, small stands, and various K&M mounts for kick mics over the years but was interested in this mount just from the pictures. After using it on a few gigs I honestly have no idea why I haven't seen anyone using one of these before, you can get the mic exactly where you want it and it doesn't budge, looks super clean too.
It's not the cheapest thing on earth but I'm honestly so glad I decided to try it out as I don't think I could go back to using anything else!
