What shape recoil pad do you use?

Curious what everyone is using...I have always used a curved pad but i find the bottom sometimes digging into me during my mount, thinking of going to a modified trap style

A - Trap Style Curved Pad

B - Straight Pad

C - Rocker Pad

D - Modified trap pad

I like flat pads. The two stock makers I’ve dealt with both recommended flat pads as well.
Edited to add that I also grind the toe of the pad so it doesn’t poke me.

I like the curved pad. I have mine canted a bit and it falls right into my pocket and stays there. Makes for a consistent mount every time. It does snag once in a while but it’s either before or after the shot and of no consequence. Wouldn’t want one a hunting gun or a sporting clays gun but for pre mounting as in trap I like it!
