Read this in an Idaho paper where Sportsmans is located. The Bass Pro guy said it would be a great combined service for sportsmen. The Sportsman Warehouse manager declined to comment!!!

Support your local outfitter. When I got into trapping earlier this season I was disappointed with the lack of offerings at all the familiar big box stores. Then I discovered an old world trap shed not too far away run by an old timer who has been doing it since the 1970s. What a treasure.

Terrible news for SW. They will ruin it just they did Cabelas. We already went through this thread a couple months ago, still sad to see it.

Exactly. Like mentioned above they ruined Cabelas. Let’s run another company in the ground so we can peddle more of our communist made garbage to sportsmen’s.

Yep. I'm sitting here wearing Cabela's clothing I bought twenty years ago. I've worn this shirt hundreds of times and thousands of hours. BP pretty much killed off the Cabela's clothing line. What's good for BP isn't so good for us.

I was just here thinking about that. It gets washed once every couple of weeks or so whether it needs it or not...based on my perception...yours may differ. I was probably wearing the same shirt when we visited.

My wash cycle is based largely on how I'm greeted and received by other people. You have to know what to read into a scowl. Is it the Gusto or do they just not like me? I consider it a tossup.

The higher ups with BP have bought $16 million in ground around us in the last few months. Shame what they did to Cabelas

That's too bad- I have bought a lot more from Sportsmans Wearhouse than the new fangled Cabels / BPS stores with their Nike BS
