A "Limb-Saver" or "Kick-Eeze" pad will make a HUGE difference. Also, don't forget the ear plugs or muffs.
Another option is the "PAST" recoil pad that the shooter wears, instead of the rifle 'wearing' a pad
And DO hold the rifle tight. Made the mistake of listening to Wise N. Hiemer older brother first time I used a shotgun..."Keep it about an inch off your shoulder...." OW! QUIT IT!
