The Grip Shape of ProKennex Racquets?

I currently play with an out of date Wilson PS 6.6 Tour Classic, which was made popular by Jim Courier in the Mid-90s. In my quest for a replacement racquet, I have come across the ProKennex Heritage Type C, which seems to have a lot of similarities with my current racquet:

* 80/20 Graphite, Kevlar

* 18 x 20 string pattern

* mid-size frame

* headlight

I've found quite a few racquets with similar specs, however for example the Head grip shapes seem very rectangular in comparison to the the wilson racquets. How does the ProKennex grip shape compare?
 
ProKennex rackets have fairly round grips, similar to Wilson and Prince. They are not like Yonex, Volkl or Fischer, which feel more rectangular.
 
I really like the Head Prestige racquet, however the grip shape in the 4.5 grip just seems much more rectangular in comparison to the wilson pro staff racquet which I'm playing with currently. This Heritage racquet seems to have almost all the characteristics of the PS 6.6 stars n stripes. However, the grip shape is one of my big concerns.
 
The PK grip has sort of rounded off edges, which I find comfortable. However, there is definitely still enough feel so I can easily tell where my hand is when changing grips quickly while playing. I don't like the Head grip shape - it feels clunky. The previous poster nailed it spot on. PK grip is probably closest to Prince but still pretty close to Wilson. I like the grip shapes on all three.
