Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Dick’s. Removes Hunting Dept’s.

Our local news just said at 6:23 AM that Dick’s Sporting Goods was
REMOVING the Hunting Departments in over 400 stores ! ! ! !

Spineless ! Empty Sacks ! Politically Correct (momentarily) and
ANTI Constitutional.


Oh Well! I never bought anything there.

Will NOT buy ANY thing there now.

Maybe I can find some good closeouts.

Only queers like Dicks, anyway.

They had already alienated most hunters to the point they couldn't sale any hunting gear anyway. No loss.

It impresses me as a smart business decision.

That, fug em

ADD : That includes GUNS & AMMO.

It does not affect me personally because I never was a patron.
We have a Dick heads Sporting Goods Store 9 mi from my house. I
Never was in the store.

What does anger me is their CAVING into the Anti 2nd A.

We KNEW where Bloomybird stands on firearms.
J Biden does NOT know where he stands ! He CAN’T remember what he
stands for.

He & other DIMS have a 1 plank Plattform. “Beat Trump”.

Back On Point : We collectively, are losing here tho. The buying public has
1 less Hunting Outlett.

I hope this hurts them to the point they go Completely Out Of Business.

Won’t miss them.

The local Dick's in Louisville ky has removed all fishing equipment also.

Local one here has a "Field & Stream" store attached to it open to the Dick's store. has quite the gun counter. I usually don't buy there but interesting to see if they're going to lose the guns and what they'll do with it. Was an old Sears at the mall.

They need a new slogan: Soccer Moms Love Dick's!

Works on several levels.

The F & S two man ladder stands are the most comfortable and easiest stands I've ever hunted out of or put together. Got a few for me and kids to sit together.

WHO CARES? Did anyone on this forum ever buy anything from there that was Hunting or Gun related? Probably NOT!

Don't buy into the whole Dick's anti blah blah blah........ We never supported them and margins on what they did sell to the most basic of gun consumers was minimal. They sold junk! Honestly it was a smart business move on their part. The media and maybe even the exec's at Dick's saw it as a good talking point for the anti's. Which lets be totally honest here is their main consumer base. Remember the Term Speak with your wallet! And we clearly did not speak with our wallets at Dick's.

This would kill the founder.

Let's see how this experiment works for them. They are 80% a clothing store these days.

fully agree...…who cares...…...total business decision...…...bob

Dicks sporting goods , I never heard of them

They can keep their Nike imported from China crap and everything else they import from there.

Nothing I ever bought there lasted. Good riddance.

I actually bought a climbing tree stand there in the past. They had some sort of coupon that made it a bargain. I don't use it much because it weighs 5,000 pounds and is as awkward to carry as a burlap sack full of feeder pigs.

Only thing I ever bought from them.

They are catering to the metrosexual male. Their sporting goods has been a small fraction of their floor space around here.

I did buy a ladder stand once and they made that sum itch for a 6'10" tall person to sit in.

Should be good news to LGS and mom and pop stores.
