1. A grip, comprising:
a grip body having a grip cavity extending from an open grip cavity bottom end, wherein a lock protrusion aperture is formed proximate said open grip cavity bottom end;
a grip plug body extending from a first end portion to a second end portion;
a skirt extending downward from at least a portion of said grip plug body;
a pull tab extending from a portion of said plug body;
a tether portion extending from said skirt, proximate said second end portion of said grip plug body, wherein a lock protrusion extends from said tether portion, wherein said tether portion is positionable through at least a portion of said lock protrusion aperture; and
a tab extending from said skirt, proximate said first end portion of said grip plug body.
2. The grip plug of claim 1 , wherein said grip plug body is a substantially oval shape.
3. The grip plug of claim 1 , wherein two or more flex recesses are formed through at least a portion of said skirt, wherein each flex recess is formed proximate said tab.
4. The grip plug of claim 1 , wherein said lock protrusion is a T-shaped lock protrusion.
5. The grip plug of claim 1 , wherein said grip plug is formed of a substantially resilient material.
6. The grip plug of claim 1 , wherein each of said grip plug body, said skirt, said tab, said tether portion, said lock protrusion, and said pull tab are integrally formed as a single component.
7. A grip and grip plug, said grip comprising:
a grip body having a grip cavity extending from an open grip cavity bottom end to a grip cavity top wall portion;
a tab aperture formed proximate said grip cavity bottom end;
a lock protrusion aperture formed proximate said grip cavity bottom end;
said grip plug, comprising:
a grip plug body extending from a first end portion to a second end portion;
a skirt extending from at least a portion of said grip plug body;
a pull tab extending from a portion of said plug body;
a tether portion extending from said skirt, proximate said second end portion of said grip plug body, wherein a lock protrusion extends from said tether portion, wherein said tether portion is positionable through at least a portion of said lock protrusion aperture, and wherein said lock protrusion extends beyond at least a portion of said lock protrusion aperture; and
a tab extending from said skirt, proximate said first end portion of said grip plug body, wherein said tab is removably engageable with at least a portion of said tab aperture, such that when said tab is engaged within at least a portion of said tab aperture, said grip plug is positioned within at least a portion of said open grip cavity bottom end.
8. The grip plug of claim 7 , wherein said grip plug body is a substantially oval shape.
9. The grip plug of claim 7 , wherein two or more flex recesses are formed through at least a portion of said skirt, wherein each flex recess is formed proximate said tab.
10. The grip plug of claim 7 , wherein said lock protrusion is a T-shaped lock protrusion.
11. The grip plug of claim 7 , wherein said grip plug is formed of a substantially resilient material.
12. The grip plug of claim 7 , wherein each of said grip plug body, said skirt, said tab, said tether portion, said lock protrusion, and said pull tab are integrally formed as a single component.
13. The grip plug of claim 7 , wherein when said grip plug is positioned within at least a portion of said open grip cavity bottom end, frictional engagement between at least a portion of said grip plug and interior side walls forming said grip cavity hermetically seal said grip cavity.
14. A grip having a grip plug, comprising:
a grip body having a grip cavity that extends from an open grip cavity bottom end to a grip cavity top wall portion;
a tab aperture formed proximate said grip cavity bottom end;
a lock protrusion aperture formed proximate said grip cavity bottom end;
said grip plug having a grip plug body;
a skirt that extends from at least a portion of said grip plug body;
a tether portion that extends from said skirt, wherein a lock protrusion extends from said tether portion, wherein said tether portion is positionable through at least a portion of said lock protrusion aperture, and wherein said lock protrusion extends beyond at least a portion of said lock protrusion aperture; and
a tab that extends from said skirt, wherein said tab is removably engageable with at least a portion of said tab aperture, such that when said tab is engaged within at least a portion of said tab aperture, said grip plug is positioned within at least a portion of said open grip cavity bottom end.
15. The grip plug of claim 14 , wherein said grip plug body is a substantially oval shape.
16. The grip plug of claim 14 , wherein two or more flex recesses are formed through at least a portion of said skirt, wherein each flex recess is formed proximate said tab.
17. The grip plug of claim 14 , wherein said lock protrusion is a T-shaped lock protrusion.
18. The grip plug of claim 14 , wherein said grip plug is formed of a substantially resilient material.
19. The grip plug of claim 14 , wherein a pull tab extends from a portion of said plug body.
20. The grip plug of claim 14 , wherein when said grip plug is positioned within at least a portion of said open grip cavity bottom end, frictional engagement between at least a portion of said grip plug and interior side walls forming said grip cavity hermetically seal said grip cavity.
