Hi All,
Of the 2 different styles of butt pad, straight and curved what do people prefer?
I'm guessing the curved would suit TR more but thinking it could introduce odd moments of force compared to a straight one when shot off a rest?
Best shape for recoil pad?

Hi Tim,
I only ever use straight ones. I have seen many curved ones on old TR shooters
I would think our body potion on different angled mounds may cause some interesting shots.
I have shot on some very flat mounds and some really angled mounds so they are out there.

When shooting TR, I set the butt under the collar bone towards the pec, shooting somewhat square. A curved butt sits there better than a flat one.
