Question 2

Would you pick this hunting sporting good store over bass pro shop and Cabela’s?

Monica K · Accepted Answer

Depends on what you need but I love scheels! It’s huge! A lot of hunting things and sports stuff

Shannon Cook · Answer

I'm a Texan that has lived in Colorado for the past two years. Bass Pro is the bomb for  boating and fishing but Scheels is AMAZING for all things mountain and things athletic. It has a special place in my heart when it comes to the kiddos.

Part time Reviewer · Answer

Like the others have said... location, selection, and need.  I feel as if the smaller selection almost equals a lower price on somethings. I love the location. If we need things they don't sell, we'll drive to the other stores.  Otherwise, we shop here often.

T. Williams · Answer

Yes, much more customer friendly ✅

Kris Keith · Answer

I would say a lot of it depends on your location. Sheels is a great place to visit and see what you think as far as what they carry. But if they're not as close as a Bass pro or Cabela's then you might just think it's just another big store that's too far away.
