You’d lose that bet. Never, ever will you see the slightest bruise if you use one of these at the range:

Everyone I've known who has used them (or the Past brand ones) says that they work way better than they ever would have thought possible. Everyone. There's no such thing as bad recoil, just bad gear.

One example is my 16-yr-old son. Here he is last week shooting, and sighting in for his eyes, my .300WM and 7mm Wby—with the pad on.

30 rounds; no problem. None.

Outside hunting or playing around, he doesn’t ever feel any recoil, like everyone else I know.
