They are all turkey feathers.

I use them both. I think bearpaw are a pretty good feather. Not much difference between the two, but some. Bearpaw seem a tiny bit less durable and I mean a tiny bit. BP colors are more drab then TF in some colors so watch what you get. BP pink, isnt even close to the brightness of TF florescent pink.... but BP florescent green is extremely bright. If you get BP florescents, they are really brilliant and good.

I've found Truflite's to be a little more durable, more consistent quills, and a little lower cut profile.

I've been impressed with the Bear Paw feathere relative to their price.  I will say that I was disappointed with their white.  It's a bit dingy and not nearly as clean white as the True Flights.
