re: Academy clearance - kayak

That's my one and only gripe with academy. Their prices, selection, and store brands blow everyone else out of the water, but they (perhaps understandably) can't keep up with the local seasons for shite.

In my area of MS peak rut is Jan. 21st, and it usually doesn't really get cold til about then. I went in second weekend in Jan ready to drop a couple hundred and all my xmas gift cards on cold weather camo, doe piss, grunt call, etc. and ended up walking out of the store without buying anything. Zero wool socks even. An entire aisle of predator calls and turkey gear, obviously because the company policy is to gear up for spring after the new year. I actually may look into emailing them about getting their schedule for changing stuff out so I'll be better prepared, cause even with that frustration I can't justify shopping anywhere else.
