ABSTRACT:
One embodiment of a handle attachment assembly formed in accordance with the present invention is provided. The handle attachment assembly may be used for removably attaching a handle to an elongate shaft having a proximal end and a distal end. The handle attachment assembly may include a hand grip adapted to be gripped and held by a user and a clamp assembly. The clamp assembly may be coupled to the hand grip for removably attaching the hand grip to the elongate shaft between the proximal end and the distal end of the elongate shaft. The clamp assembly may include a first V-shaped clamp and a second V-shaped clamp. A fastening assembly may be used for driving the first V-shaped clamp toward the second V-shaped clamp to removably clamp the elongate shaft between the first and second V-shaped clamps.
