I'm pretty impressed with the Bearpaw so far.

I have just finished a roll of the Bear Paw and am not that impressed. It is mostly clearer than Gordons, but after hearing everyone tout how perfect it is, I was expecting better.

It is clearer than Gordons, mostly. But after chatting with Bear, and my 1 roll experience, we have noticed some blotches and definitely every piece has a blemish.. .small or large as does Gordons.

Again, I'm using it because it is clearer but for all the guys bugling how perfect it is, my eyes must not be as bad as I thought they were.

None of it is perfect. Bearpaw is cheaper when you buy it buy the inch off the roll.

I always use ULS on ever bow.  Just better product overall.
