"Don't USE LEATHER and SAVE THE COWS!"

Ermmm... leather pads are made from kid skin (NOT from human kids!) and skin pads are made from cow intestines - so if you want to save cows, don't use skin pads (not that it's going to save any cows as there are many other industries that eat up cows).

With ALL pads, you do need the perfect tonehole bedplaces in every instance to be sure you're getting the perfect seal - even skin pads won't seal any small imperfections.

So it's well worth the time and effort spent in sorting out all the tonehole bedplaces BEFORE padding, otherwise it's a pointless exercise seating pads on imperfect toneholes - no matter what pad type as there'll still be leaks.
