Now that the trap has been out for a minute and any hypes died down, can anyone who’s played both the BT and Chief give me some kind of comparison?

Mostly interested if the BT feels like a continuation of the Chief, or if it’s a new unique thing in itself entirely.

The Bear Trap is like a sportier Cheif, just a bit smaller and nimbler. Mine is CLYW smooth, if you like the Chief then you’ll like the Bear Trap.

It definitely feels like an upgrade imo. The minor decrease in size, increase in width, and less…idk solid feel? On the string is super appealing. I have a chief for nostalgia but I honestly think I prefer the bear trap. That being said the binds on the bt got slippy, quick. Idk what that’s about but it’s still a jam. Highly recommend
