In search for a new pack

Exo k3 3200- best one of the half dozen I've used.

 

[Smerritt84]

EXO k4 is a great choice

 

[Gorencb]

I have both a Kuiu 3200 and a K4 5000. Kuiu for better organization, K4 for heavy packouts.

I’ve been happy with my eberlestock f1 main frame. Lot of attachments to customize with.

honestly it comes down to personal preference packs are sorta like boots they all fit slightly different.
can't go wrong with SG, kifaru, EXO

 

[Chickenchit]

Not sure if you are able to, but I bought 3 packs from Kuiu, EXO, SG to try since you cant find them in stores really. Ended up shipping back the Kuiu and SG for what its worth. the K4 is a great pack!

 

[556mtjones]

My vote is on the Exo K4 line!

 

[PoniBoy]

I highly recommend Exo K4. Extremely comfortable pack especially when packing heavy loads. Also, fantastic customer service.

 

[Smerritt84]

Exo k4 is great, figure out your pack size

 

[FarmerDan]

Exo is the way to go. Very good people and great customer service.

Hard to go wrong with exo or initial ascent

 

[Ultraheight]

Kuiu's expedition packs are great

 

[BucksNBulls]

I own Exo, Kuiu, Kifaru, Eberestock, and Initial Accent.

Initial Accent is my favorite by far.

Currently running a frame pack with a meat shelf that’s around 80L in size and the pack has worked great for me but has taken a serious beating over the years and I’m looking to get a new one. Wanted to know some suggestions and opinions on any packs that have good tripod storage, rifle holder, straps to hold a bow in place and include a meat shelf. I don’t want to down size since I do a lot of ten day back country and high country hunts a year. Any opinions help thanks.

I only do day hunts, out and back from my vehicle. So, I only use a good day pack with built-in Camelback. When I have an elk down, I gut it immediately, returned to my truck and pick up my pack frame and game bags

I have a Kifaru Ma Deuce and a K4 7000. I’m a shorter, stockier fella. For me, the K4 feels better.

The Kifaru bag has more pockets and the attention to detail is great, but I’m going with the K4 this year

I’ve a Stone Glacier and there’s definitely no wrong with it, it’s a great pack. I tried in a K4 and even though I haven’t worn it long term I think it would be hard to beat.
