Re: sheep pack weight ?????
It works awesome, just need to add compression straps and swap a couple buckles and they're perfect together.
I had an Exo K2 before(well, still have, need to sell), and while it was great, curiosity got the best of me and I got a Kifaru frame to try. I love the kifaru frame, but also love the Exo bag layout more than any other. Luckily for me they fit really well together, and the Exo bag is a bit lighter than similar offerings from Kifaru.
Bonus mix-ups, the Mystery Ranch day pack lid fits really well on the bag, though I don't usually use it, for weight savings.

My pack from our 2020 trip. Pack weight going in was 63lbs (including rifle and water). Pack weight coming out was 130lbs. Camp(43lbs) + Meat (67lbs) + Horns (20lbs). Exo handled it like a champ.

Nice pic congrats on the ram Which bag was this.
Re: sheep pack weight ?????
Awesome pic!
My days of putting a 130lb pack on the ground are way past me. I'd walk until I found a hip-height stump or rock for fear I'd never get it back on my hips.

Nice pic! Looks like an Exo 5500? Glad to hear they can haul the weight. I just picked up a 6400.
