In Kalamazoo there was a Field & Stream that was owned by Dick's. They were recently bought out by Sportsman's Warehouse. F&S didn't last long. What are your thoughts on Sportsman's Warehouse? We never had one in the area before. We have one close by that used to be field and stream. I shop there because its not dicks! Some of the stuff is still over priced. I bought a bunch of traps 50% off when they bought field and stream out.

. What are your thoughts on Sportsman's Warehouse? We never had one in the area before. I bought every 330 they had at their "grand opening" for $9.95 as well as got them to pull illegal snares off the shelves. Dicks is laying in the bed they made!

I haven't been in our local Dicks since they stopped selling guns.
The difference between animals and humans is that animals would never let the dumbest ones lead the pack.

143 mil loss and still in business WOW. Let em stew in their own juices. Haven't been in one in a long time. I like to spend my gun and ammo money at local mom and pop joints. It's important to keep them in business so the big box stores don't take over. As far as trapping money I ordered out to quite a few different folks but try to buy most at rendezvous

We never had one in the area before. I sure hope that isn't where we saw you when buying shotshells a few years ago. If it was I apologize for doing business there No, we met at Gander Mountain. That store went belly up also. I think it's called Camping World or something like that now. The big name stores seem to come and go. I do most of my business at smaller, local stores. D&R Sports is one of my go to stores. (Home of professional bass angler Kevin Van Dam) F&S had a lot of fluff with prices to match.
