Kick-Eez Kick-Eez Medium Black Pad, 1-7/8'' X 5-1/4'' X 15/16''
The Kick-Eez Medium Black Pad is a Sorbothane recoil pad designed to absorb felt recoil and reduce shooter fatigue on rifles and shotguns. Built from Sorbothane, a viscoelastic polymer engineered specifically for impact absorption, this pad tackles one of shooting's most persistent problems: the jarring punishment that comes with every shot. Whether you're working through a day at the range, hunting in the field, or running clay targets, a quality recoil pad transforms your experience from something you endure to something you can focus on.
Recoil management matters more than many shooters realize. When a pad effectively cushions that initial impulse, you're less likely to flinch in anticipation of the next shot—and that means faster follow-ups and better accuracy when it counts. The Sorbothane material in Kick-Eez pads resists the compression set that degrades cheaper foam or rubber over time, maintaining its absorption properties even after thousands of rounds. You won't experience the \"bottoming out\" feeling that leads to inadequate cushioning on worn-out pads.
At 1-7/8\" wide, 5-1/4\" tall, and 15/16\" thick, the Medium size fits a wide range of shotgun and rifle stocks. The black finish is understated and functional—no flash, just solid protection. Installation typically requires epoxy or contact cement, and most shooters can handle it in under an hour.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will a Kick-Eez recoil pad fit my shotgun or rifle?
The Medium size works with most standard shotgun and rifle stocks. Measure your existing pad or stock dimensions to confirm compatibility before purchasing—this pad is 1-7/8\" wide, 5-1/4\" tall, and 15/16\" thick.
How does a Sorbothane pad compare to rubber or foam recoil pads?
Sorbothane is a viscoelastic polymer engineered to absorb impact more effectively than standard rubber or foam. Unlike cheaper materials, it resists compression set and maintains its cushioning properties over thousands of shots without degrading or bottoming out.
How is the pad installed?
The Kick-Eez pad is attached to the stock using epoxy or contact cement. It's a straightforward DIY job for most shooters, though you can also have it installed by a gunsmith.
Will a recoil pad really help with accuracy?
By reducing felt recoil and the flinch response that follows, a quality pad can help you stay more consistent between shots. Shooter comfort and confidence translate to faster, more controlled follow-up shots and tighter groups.
