I've had a GN on my DAS riser and thought it was too heavy. I've got a 5 arrow EFA on my wife's DAS and it feels good and does not seem to affect the tune at all. I would opt for the EFA but either one is a winner. I also like the attachment system of the EFA better.

EFA. Don was very helpful when ordering my quiver. Exactly what I wanted!

I agree, buy both and make the decision based on how each works for you.  Both are great quivers.

I should add I think EFA and even Thunderhorn have better craftsmanship, are more pleasing to the eye and quality of materials it's the function I like better of the GN. Man if you could combine them!

Hard to beat the strap on EFA. Had a limb bolt GN that was a winner but never owned a GN strap on. Both make great products.  :banghead:

Own EFA and a Anawekee Kanati. EFA is lighter, thinner grade leather but still well built. Kanati is way heavier, thicker leather and is more adjustable.

GN I have both really have not used the EFA hunting yet but I like the GN because I can get it up the riser instead of right at limb fade outs. The EFA wont stay still where I want it and right at the fadeouts it change the way the bow shoots. I also like the heavy rubber over the foam in the hood makes foam last longer. I would buy the GN kickback next time I have 2 GN's that I have modified to the kickback.

x3 I modified both of my EFAs to take rubber straps so they would stay in place.

If you get the totem it won't move at all

There both good in different ways

EFA. The Totem is the answer to the concern about the quiver parts moving on the fade outs. And the Totem turns the quiver into a one piece.

I only have the EFA.  I like the light weight.  I have had some issues with it slipping at times.  You need to arrange the arrows very carefully so the fletching does not rub and rattle on the shot.
