Has anyone used these feathers? If so what did you think of them?

I have done one dozen arrows with them and so far so good.  I have not shot them much yet to see how durable they are.  The colors are more vivid that the Trueflights.

D.P.

The quills are thicker / taller that Tureflight's, which may contribute to a less durable attachment when passing through targets and grass, etc.

I have used both. No problems so far with Bearpaw but I personally think the quality of Trueflight is better.

No Bearpaw feather I have used has turned loose from the shaft(s) they are attached to...

Time will tell but they're good to go so far.

I just got some, and they're okay. They are brightly colored, but I was not impressed with the barred ones.

Probly won't get them again. Whatever feathers Braveheart Archery sells are the best I've ever used.....

Braveheart is AMG. I like the barred look of the bear paws and would like to try them. They are less expensive as well

I been using them for awhile now and love em! Haven't lost a fletch yet and have shot these arrows thousands of times and they show no major signs of wear. I love tru flight feathers but I don't love their price. Bearpaws Are high quality that are priced right.
