I think......before spending money on forks try out some foam grips or gloves or cork tape double wrapped or touring type bar with more hand positions

I'd suggest better grips too (
Grab-ons are by far the best grips for mountain biking ever made
) but 1-track-mind is doing off-road touring. On a rigid bike, on less than smooth roads or trails, that can be brutal! I've done it. Having a fork to take some of the abuse is far better. A suspension fork will also help with control especially if you get on something rutted.
