Please correct me if I'm wrong but, I have been taught that "to a pad (or butt plate)" means 'to the end of the wood' or where the wood meets any of the various butt treatment apparatus possibilities..... but that "over a pad (or butt plate)" means 'including the (subject) butt treatment'.
I don't mean to muddy up this thread - just trying to be clear in my understanding of it.
