My exo has been awesome. One time a clip broke from a way over-loaded elk packout but they had the replacement part at my front door within 72 hours. I do have friends with kifaru and hear great things about them as well. I think you will be happy with either of your options

I’m running the Kifaru Hoodlum and I love it. I have a hunting buddy that runs an Exo and it also seems great. I don’t think either would be a bad choice.

Stone glacier is a solid pack also. All different sizes of bags so take your pick. My cousin from Iowa came and shot his first coues deer this year and packed out the gutted buck on the evo frame no problem. Pic for fun lol

Exo K4 5000 has been a great pack

Exo k3 3600 checking in. Every time I say I won’t change something out I do, but I feel confident I won’t change it out until it gives up and I don’t see that happening. It’s been a great pack going on probably 8 or 9 years now. 
 

I can attach a bow or gun to it. Smash it down for day hunting and open it up to haul a load of meat on the shelf or gear if I needed to. I can’t speak to how comfortable it is to a stone glacier or kirafu but it is the most comfortable pack I’ve had carrying a load or hunting all day. Beat all the MR and Eberlestock packs I’ve owned without a doubt. 

I did get a Hill People Gear for some hiking excursions and overnights I want to do, not sure if I will try it for any hunting but they are good packs as well.

I’ve ran the K2 3500 since 2018. 
Switched over from the Outdoorsman’s pack.  I like the long compartments on either side that allow for tripod etc. I love the adjustability and comfort. It can pack out HEAVY with no problems. 
if I were to need a pack again, I would look at the two options you are already considering. Both are quality.

I’ve had the K3 and now the K4. The K4 has definitely been an upgrade,  it both packs are great. I carried an entire mule deer buck ( quartered) by myself last January with zero issues and I’m not a big guy. The versatility of the packs to go from a day pack to multi day backpacking pack by cinching it down is another thing that really sets them apart. Customer service is also top notch.
