Default Power cleans too risky?

Lately, I've really fallen in love with the power clean. I never did them as much before, but I've started doing them and absolutely loving them. Only problem - I don't have bumpers at my house, which is where I work out, and in the rare case I do them somewhere else, that place almost never has bumpers either. I tried just 'unwinding' my arms over them after a rep to set the bar back down, but the next day my shoulders were on fire and not in a good way. Is there a way to do power cleans w/o bumpers that doesn't tear up your shoulders something nasty? I can't think of an efficient way to do it that doesn't involve putting a big old hole in the floor.
