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.

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.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
