Ridgemont Equity Partners vs Falfurrias Capital Partners

Talking with both places. Which would be the better choice? Both are in Charlotte. I think Ridgemont is a more traditional 2&Out place, which I don’t like, but they’re mostly growth equity too which I do like. In contrast, Falfurrias doesn’t seem to be 2&Out but focuses almost exclusively on buyouts. 

Both seem to have a lot of BofA ties as Ridgemont was a spin-off and Falfurrias was founded by Hugh McColl
