Eberlestock. Mystery ranch, Kuiu, and many others. So many good good packs out there. Just gotta find the style that works for you. I'm partial to Eberlestock but that does not mean they are what you want or need or is the best choice for you.
I was looking at the kuiu divid 3000, but any specific that eberlestock offers that you like?

Great choice but you have to also consider whether you want a day pack or a go deep and stay many days pack.
I was looking at it because it was for single day trip, but I may have to look at another for many days
The rei sells it and they have some backpacks on sell, so I'll take a look at it.
if you are looking for a pack to haul meat. You need a pack that is separate from the frame. That way your pack is still a pack, but you can put the meat in between the Pac and the frame to haul it out.
Kifaru, Stone Glacier, Exo, Kuiu. Would be packs that separate from the frame with meat shelves.

Look into this pack. Its been solid for me. Expands from 2500 cu. in to 4000 cu. in. Great cushion on the back and lots of space. Has a bow or rifle sling and a rain fly. I haven't got to load it up with meat but I feel it would handle great. Also check out Camofire.com for daily deals. I got my first Apls day pack for $50.
I run mystery ranch and can haul out a whole deer if I had to, we usually split it up between a couple guys if possible. I have a sawtooth and just picked up a beartooth. here’s the sawtooth with a Whole deer my son packed out

I got two Eberlestock and two Mystery Ranch. Just got the EMods set up from Eberlestock before I went to Wyoming. Bought both the 2500 and 5000 bags to zip on Oles a set of bat wings. When I went elk hunting on a deep extended hunt used tge 5000 with bat wings, left the 5000 bag in camp and rolled around with the wings on for a day pack. Run just the 2500 if it’s a short trip. Been using it rock climbing too lately to pack in ropes and kit.
Nothing against the MR. Just like the modularity with the EMOD set up. My kids will have plenty of packs to hunt with .
