Considering they own Field and Stream, this is somewhat weird. Maybe they are pushing all that merchandise over to those stores.

I bet they will actually increase profit here because after their idiotic stance hunters quit paying them.

Pretty sure Field and Stream is on the endangered species list because of this bullshite.

They basically poisoned the whole brand and had to close a bunch of stores as a result.

Dick’s only sells workout clothes, some sports gear and shoes now. I would say Red Stick sports has a better selection of actual sports gear though. Their tent sale is the bees knees.

They are hoping the SJWs don't put the two together...

KKR (owners of academy) will end up buying them out, and turning them into Academy. Dick's has done a good job of destroying their brand in the south. Bold business move.

No more fishing gear here in BR.


The SJW's will be praising the Lord that the horrendous torture of the fishes by the catch and release crowd will be reduced.
Just imagine the mental stress on those poor fishes when they are returned to the waters and have to admit to their fellow denizens of the waters that they fell for a fake meal and were rejected as unworthy of the frying pan.

They are not getting rid of shite. What they take out of Dick's, they will just put in Field & Stream that they also own.

Frickers may be woke, but they ain't stupid. Such disingenuous corksuckers.

I used to get shoes there, but it's all Academy for me now. Easier to get to, and not acting like an arse to me.

Re: ammo- in the BR area, is Academy now the best place for range ammo?

I don’t shop at DSGs or F&S. DSGs won’t get my dollars. As a consumer, it’s my choice.
