Has anyone tried feathers from Bear Paw Products?  I see that Kustom King now has them.

I'd like to know about these also.  Seems pretty low on the price, I wonder if the quality reflects that?

I've only used the barred shield cuts so far. I'm using Trueflight hen feathers and bear paw cock feather and the shield cut seems to be very close in shape if not identical. Very good overall - if anything, the only minus is that the bases don't seem as consistent as Trueflights and maybe a little thicker.  Might be my imagination though  ;)

I purchased several dozen full lengths a couple weeks ago and have been chopping them and using them.  I see consistent good quality, less blems than on trueflights in this batch.  The blems on TF's can usually be cut around though.  As Ian said above the barring is less "natural" looking but none are very natural looking compared to real turkey!!!
