Never go there myself.I think that was the primary floor plan until not that many years back. They died with brick and mortar. The one near me is like a dept store with mid level gear for fishing, hunting, fitness, golf etc. Not just the lowest margin China trash an enthusiast of any sport can get everywhere. They better get online right or I am guessing they will eat the square footage stores in a recession. My store is truly huge and well stocked with quality items. I'm not thinking about buying DKS here. The stars just aligned for them.
On a side note, DKS got "boycotted" a few years back when they stopped selling guns for political reasons. I've learned to separate my political opinions from my investing life much better. I am noticing a pattern and most of the targeted companies have a nice run within a few years if you catch the dip and just ignore it. The list is pretty long. I've watched a number of my friends act irrationally with their portfolio and it cost them a lot of profits. OK maybe not the My Pillow Guy. That dude is over the top and deserves whatever he gives his business lol, but most of the targets did more than fine.
