PRDATR Report post Posted October 3, 2016 Holy smokes! That's a lot of money. I'm curious what they plan on doing. After I read the article it looks like they will keep the Cabelas going so it may not be so bad after all. But it will get interesting for Cabelas with a Dicks opening up across the street.

Chris Report post Posted October 3, 2016 Booooooooo. I'm surprised at the move. Bass Pro Shop is pretty empty when I visit. I'm surprised they have the money. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gmcbob Report post Posted October 3, 2016 Is cabelas gear better than red head? Heck yeah, I think so. Cabelas always seems to have better products, options and quality in my experience. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ready2hunt Report post Posted October 3, 2016 Bass Pro has a nice store- cabelas is better. Bass Pro sales suck- Black Friday especially is a joke. There are only a couple of guy I actually trust to give knowledgeable advice in their dept. at Bass Pro everyone else is either understaffed or just doesn't care. Cabelas has always been better than Bass Pro in my opinion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
