Thanks for clarifying NP - I was wondering why all the confusion. Good stuff man. Think that's a side-effect of them (Gander)building too many stores, or maybe their lack of diversification (Cabelas and Dikk's each seem to carry a more diverse product line - especially Dikk's- everything from skiwear to paintball to watersports to ball bats, exercise equipment, golf, football, camping)

Probably just a side-effect of there being a finite amount of hunting dollars to go around, and retailers having to diversity to stay afloat. Cabelas even opened a bank offering financial services.

BRY - Used to be a place inSW PAcalled Burgie's Archery (sp?). Burgie's was THE place for bows in the area. Out of business for a long time now - Burgie retired. Big tin building in the middle of nowhere. I still have my first Burgie's buck contest t-shirt - if you entered the contest and got a buck (no matter if it was a 3" pencil-spike) you got a free t-shirt for checking it in.
