Storybook hunters and shooters wear THOSE brands.
Don't ask me about my military service or heroic acts...most of it is untrue.

There's nothing like destroying something to "save" it.

Sitka vs. Kuiu vs. Redhead brand clothing. Discuss amongst yourselves.... For shooting house tactics...yes on the first two. Cabelas kind of “bridged the gap” between the high dollar stuff, and the “garbage that just happens to be camo”. Bass Pro has replaced most of the Cabelas gear with the Redhead crap. I don’t need Kuiu to sit in a deer blind, but at least the Cabelas stuff was decent. I can get “Gamewinner” brand st Academy that’s as good as the Redhead, and a heckuva lot cheaper, to sit in a dry 40 degree box...

All these places end up transforming and catering to phaggots and fly fishermen
Columbia shirts, teva sandals, cbd oil, marshmallow candy peanuts, hiking book gaiters
No offense to phaggots hahahaha! You just described half of Colorado.

True story. I dont own a single flannel shirt. I do wear khakis frequently however. Sportsmanship had too much inventory to survive. They had a huge fly fishing section in Ames iowa. Really? Ames? There isn't a trout for 100 miles from Ames and even then only in 1 direction. (Yes, I know it's actually Ankeny). The state does stock rainbows that you can catch with gummy bears but that doesnt justify the inventory they have.

The danger to the outdoor industry is Bass Pro and Cabelas plus Sportsman's will control too much market share of the retail outdoor industry. This should be "Anti-Trust" but won't even be considered.

Never bought anything from Sportsman Warehouse. If Walmart don't have it, then I don't need it.

That might not be the worst news of 2020, but it’s top 5 for sure.
Bass Pro sucks donkey balls. I haven't been a bass pro or cabelas when it became one, sad times

BPS ruined Cabela's, but maybe BPS learned something from having screwed up Cabela's so badly and will let SW run as an independent operating company. The quality of Cabela's clothing lines dropped like a rock when they stopped being Cabela's brands and started being BPS brands.

We have a local farm and suburban supply store chain in the valley, D & B Supply. As demographics have changed, of course, so has the store. They now cater more to the wanna be C'boys on their little "ranchettes".
But you can still drop in and buy baling twine, fence posts, Round-up, or plow shares. But the important part of this treatise is that they now feature a pretty decent selection of long or short guns, optics, and reloading supplies, along with the Carhartt, Mucks, and Tony Lamma.
Over the last several years, my purchasing dollars have primarily migrated from Cabelas to Sportsmans. I predict that migration shall continue unabated toward D & B Supply.
People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.

And no Scheels within I don't know how many hundred miles! Exactly! I have no idea where the nearest Scheels is to me. I used to drive 2 hours to Cabela's once or twice a year. Then a Sportsman's Warehouse took over a Field and Stream nearby a couple of years ago. Now I only have Dick's(head) and Sportsman's Whorehouse within a half hours drive. IDK where I'm gonna shop for stuff now! Fugggg Dicks and Fugggg Basspro.

Sportsman’s Warehouse customers can expect all of what they love now plus a whole lot more Widely expanded product offerings including: · Access to the world’s largest selection of premium fishing tackle including legendary Bass Pro Shops and other premier brands · The largest selection of premium hunting gear including the iconic Cabela’s brand
