I saw a guy swinging a Nox with an Ace bandage wrapped around the handle.

This is way better.

Took it to the beach and have hosed it down aready. Seems to work.

Gonna have to try that. Found out why they gave me two sets of gloves. Cant barehand the Nox in water it is slicker than Whale dung!:laughing:
 
I haven't water hunted yet, but put this stuff on mine to protect the handle and get a better grip. It's very tacky feeling. Got it at home depot for $7.

I was thinking of doing something similar. I don't find mine to be all that comfortable in the hand. And the arm cuff is gorilla sized too. I'm 5'-11" and 190 pounds. The arm cuff is too big for me. I can't imagine that any smaller guys or ladies are happy with it.

Great idea NCtoad! I have a roll of that tape in my toolbox and now have a little project for today. Thanks man! :grin:
 
I use 3M VetRap on the hand grip of my machines. I do have to replace it from time to time but it does not stick to my hands and is easy to replace. I like a grip. that is a little larger than the standard grip and the cushioning keeps my trigger fingers from reoccurring. .
 
I'm thinking a bicycle inner tube would work nicely!
 
Ive been trying to find a way to put something similar to a bicycle grip on it that has a cap or stop at the top so it dont slide down on my hand and I end up with the control box resting on my thumb and forefinger.....thats a little uncomfortable. I know there is no way to get a bicycle grip onto it but it seems there should be a product out there somewhere that could work , I just havent been able to find it.


The picture is just to illustrate what I am talking about , the flared out end of the grip would be nice to have on the NOX handle an inch or two below the box.

I used to wear tacky finger tape on every finger 12 hours a day at work, so I won't be using that.
Not good though that the handles are already breaking down.

We need to know someone with a 3D printer,
to make those bicycle grips.
 
I've thought the same thing but am not sure how to attach it for water work.
Any suggestions?
I would cut the inner tube lengthwise in half. You start tightly overlapping and stretching it like wrapping a tennis racket grip and finish it off with some electrical tape.
