With time on them you will get comfortable with anything you buy. I climbed with buckingham steel for 5.5 years. When I found my bashlin aluminums I thought I was in heaven. Still to this day I love them, 2.5" tree gaff (probably filed to 2" by now). One of the biggest things is the pads. Good pads are worth every penny you spend. They will go a long way in making a set of hooks more comfortable.
