The have sports equipment, apperal, game equipment, grilling equipment, Im telling you, you will find something at academy sports if you go!!! I promise!!! Thanks and GOD BLESS ALL!!!
Was looking for a particular fishing lure and found not only that but some lures and baits that have been sold out all over the place that I felt was like a hidden treasure that I use being part of those good ol Bass Bandits
Academy is pretty good deals but a little too overpriced but they do got a lot of variety of Nike Adidas and fishing gear..
Store has all that you need for sports and outdoor activities. Prices decent. Check out lines may have to wait awhile to get out of there.
Omg this was my first time shopping here and I have to say I was so impressed with how easy it is to find everything you need love this place cant wait to go back and the prices on shoes you cant beat it
Found everything I was looking for. Was a good shopping trip
Loved it . They got me my stuff really fast thanks
They have guns so yep its a good place lol
This is an awsome place my go.to outdoor store
Grate values and amazing choices. For boating they are as cheep a source for boating supplies as you can find.
The staff were very helpful and knowledgeable. This isnt my normal Academy Sports so it was nice to have the ability to go in to a new location to see what all they have to offer here. Im very pleased to say that they had completely different merchandise is in my home store so it was nice to be able to pick out some new things that Im not used to seeing all in all I love academy sports and all the name brand items they have and their generic brands also they always treat me very good like I belong there and they never hassle me or giving me a hard time for bringing it out of back to exchange with the receipt I have a wide variety of fishing, camping, hiking, sports, a great shoe department, they sell guns, they have a nice knife collection, Target practice, airsoft rifles and BB guns, we also sell men and womens clothing, with brands like Nike and under armor Columbia just to name a few. So and all I would say my experience every time I go into Academy Sports is a very good one thanks to the staff and the owners.
Worst managed Academy in the Southeastern United States. Five men waiting to buy firearms, one little kid behind the counter. Decided to go the Chattanooga to buy and saw three disgruntled buyers from Academy. What a waste. Surely, academy can do better than a manager that has no clue where demand is located and staffs appropriately.
If youre a hunter or fisherman this is definitely the place to go!
I would give them 5 stars but we purchased items online and took them back here when they tried to scan the barcode it wouldnt read it saying it wasnt an actual barcode number. This isnt a fault towards an individual but academy itself. Other than that it was and always has been a great store.
Very clean place, friendly helpful service. They have just about anything you could possibly need for sports and outdoors. The only downside i seen was their prices are a little on the expensive side.
The employees here are always very nice, and we find good stuff here😊The changing rooms need their floors cleaned though. Way too much dust piled up.
I love the brand BCG at Academy! Of course everyone knows the more common brands (Nike, Adidas, Under Armour, etc...) but BCG has really cute and long lasting apparel too and its at a good price! 😁
Just picked my new tent for the year there. Wonder what else I need for my adventures this year? Hope Ill be able to find it there when I need it.
Surprisingly good prices and variety of just about anything you need!
Has absolutely everything you need. You won’t ever leave empty handed!
Good place to buy sports equipment but a bit pricey.
They always have a friendly staff.
Great customer service! Kayla and Tonya were awesome trying to help us locate a trampoline at another store that was out of stock at our local store.
Love this academy. Fantastic 👏
Awesome store . a bunch of ammo
Great experience. No problems. Recommend highly.
Helpful employees and clean environment to travel to for sporting good
Associates are all friendly and helpful. Very good selections and good prices.
Ms Debbie at the door was absolutely the sweetest & helpful with pointing me in the correct direction for the item I was looking for🥰🥰
I drove over an hour to the location in Dalton, Ga only to be met by the most unhelpful, unfriendly staff!Me: do you carry footpeg tracks for kayaks?Employee: Im not sure...Me: 👀Employee: 😐Me: Can we find out??Would not even consider helping me load a kayak or borrow a ladder. Another customer ended up helping 🙄
This is my Target! Its hard not to buy everything. I think they have great selection and overall good customer service.
They have the best selection of shoes, soccer equiptment, and any sports related necessities!! I can find everything very easily too!!!
Friendly helpful staff. Very fair price for a good product.
Academy is one my favorite places to shop thats where I buy my ammo, always the best price and Im always met with with a friendly face where ever you are in the store
Great place and one of the few places that has ammo in stock at the moment.
My boyfriend and I came in to Academy looking for accessories for our recreational equipment. Jordan could not have been more helpful. She stayed with us through our entire experience and was very knowledgeable about the products. She made the shopping experience feel very personal and genuine. Typically, we get disappointed at Academy, but this was a stand out experience. Again, thank you Jordan.
Love this place!!! As for they love my business, lol.
Went into store to buy a Pit Boss 1230 grill. Eventually found an employee in clothes section. Asked if we could someone to grill section. She announced it. Herd it. Stood waiting for 10 mins looking at other grills. Saw another employee. He said he would announce it. We stated our wait time. He then said he would get the manager. After another wait.She finally showed. Was gone for a bit. Then told me they don’t have any. Site said they did. That’s why I drove 37 miles. She then said “Did you but my it on line”? No I said. She then told me it would have told you they didn’t have any. Hugh? How about not saying available for pick up at the Dalton store. Nice job. First time in an Academy store. Not a great 1st impression by any means.
My wife and I have mountain bikes, but we went to purchase road bikes. The young associate helping us was fantastic. Polite, courteous, and knowledgeable. He couldnt have been more helpful. However, my wife had to look at four of the exact same bikes before we found one without problems. The others wouldnt change gears properly or had other problems in addition to the gears. Otherwise a five star rating.
The fishing sections are still depleted on the stuff we all look for. The rod and reel combos are on the low end of the spectrum. We could use alot of the more expensive combos in this store.
Good store with friendly staff
We went here today after going to a Dunhams, and OMG this place is amazing. The staff are friendly, the selection is amazing. They have price scanners everywhere. They have great covid-19 cleaning and barriers. We will definitely go back.
If your wanting to get someone a gift for Christmas or birthday stay away from Academy. My friends bought me some gifts from Academy and didnt give me the receipt. Im sure its like this for a lot of people because you usually dont give the person the receipt or your card info when you buy them a gift, right? Day two of having the gift which was a hunting chair. It broke. This was a $50 chair. So I went to take it back to replace it. They were out of the chair so I couldnt do an even swap. But since I didnt have the receipt or card that it was paid with they said they could only offer me the lowest low price $16 store credit for the chair. This chair btw is not on clearance and they still sell it for $50. I find this to be a very big issue. So no I will not be buying my friends and loved ones anything from Academy, because if it breaks or tears up or they just dont like it or happen to get the same gift twice there is a chance they will not be able to return for store credit at the products value and instead only get offered less than half of what was originally paid for it.
Found camp chairs in variety color and price to satisfy!!
They never have the gun we are looking for its crazy
I visited the handguns and rifles nobody was there to talk to or let you look at a gun I look for some shells I wanted didnt see any of chefso I left
Nice apparel with a good price. A friendly staff.
Awesome. Very friendly service.
Its a great place to find firearms that are competitively priced. You can sometimes find ammo there too if youre quick. Ive had basically no complaints in my many years of shopping there.
Easy to find items I wanted.
Love this store everyone was very helpful and pleasant
Great place to buy anything for the outdoors.
There was a girl named Yulissa at the register & she was the sweetest! I have never treated the way she treated my daughter, sister and I! She was so nice! So sweet once again! More people like her would be amazing! It just makes the experience better when you have an employee who likes what their doing and having such a positive attitude!
Old guy and lady that work behind the gun counter are rude and unprofessional. I would rather pay more somewhere else than deal with them.
Great place to buy steel toes
Typically they’ve got everything sports, just no apparel for military vets- Navy-Air Force, (hats/tshirts).
Better shoes than what most Walmarts sell.
Great selection and awesome staff.
Went in store at 9 ish looking for boots, as a contractor I must have steel toe or composite toe boots. There selection of boots are very slim and and they do not carry wide foot boots. Now Im off to tractor supply.
Friendly people and great prices!
Found good deals on shoes and sunglasses.
Nice people but the shelves seemed a little empty.
Ive always liked this store better than the one in Chattanooga but I do have a complaint. I realize these are tough and trying times because of Covid-19 but the changing rooms need to be opened asap. I cannot buy clothes without trying them on because sizes vary so much. I would have spent more than $200 for running clothes yesterday but I didn’t know if theyd fit. Bass Pro Shop has their changing rooms open and are selling clothes faster than they can restock. They also have a procedure in place for returned clothes.
I looked at tents. Very good.
Americas best all around sporting goods store especially price wise!
Pleasant Experience, Even had some firearm related stuff I needed! Nice people there!
Great place
My favorite store to shop
No Falcons decals. Sports?
My husband and I rode nearly two hours to pick up our online order. It was ready, however we wanted to do more shopping. I went to the front to get a cart. There were none. Another customer was doing the same and asked two guys standing there talking. They just looked at him and said they were out. Myself and another customer went into the parking lot to get a cart while these guys continued to talk. Store was not clean as most Academy Sports are. Extremely disappointed in this location.
I went to Academy Sports in Dalton, GA last week to return a pair of my grandson’s shoes for a larger size. They did not have the size I needed in stock and asked if I could drive to the Chattanooga, TN store as they had the correct size on hand; unfortunately I was not able to and explained this to the store manager, Andrew. After hearing this he made arrangements to have the correct size shoe brought to the Dalton store that same day! He was a very kind person and you could tell that he takes pride in his work, ensuring that a customer can leave there having had a good shopping experience!
Its a very nice place
Store was very well stocked and neat but pricing was a little above average, otherwise Id give it five stars.
Had the bag I needed.
Its a chain store...nothing to get excited about
Disappointed that they didn’t have more for toddlers.
Very organized. Polite employees.
Good store but overpriced on some items
There seems to never really be long lines but always takes for ever to be checked out not really sure why
I went in today and shop . I went to there restrooms and there was trash everywhere. Trash cans were full and they just had open. No excuses for them to have there restrooms that dirty with no paper towels and no toilet paper.
Cashiers are courteous and polite. Giving 5 stars for that but dont go to gun department wanting to purchase a handgun. Waited 25 min to even try to look at a handgun that I WAS gonna purchase but they people at the counter was to busy shooting the breeze with each other to help..so I took my business elsewhere
Masks are not required. No customers wore masks but associated did.
I got my last 2 lodge cast iron grills from there
Very caring and patient.Does a wonderful job.
Went there to buy basketball shoes . Couldnt find a store employee . Went to customer service desk ask about the shoes they told me where the shoe dept was at . (Already knew where it was at) so after looking through the store we found 2 employees which was clueless to what we where looking for . If academy cant do better by having knowledgeable people to help out customers I will not do business there again . Mary McHale
Awesome prices
Good customer service
Always good experience
Clean store people that works there very helpful
Great service and good deals
Christmas time. The store was slightly occupied. Hard to get help.
Very dissatisfied. I went in Friday. 7/03/20 and again today 07/07/20 to look for .40Cal S&W ammunition and could not find any. There wasnt even a bin tag for it. It looks to me like they are slowly reducing the availability of ammunition. Earlier this year there were 2 full rows of ammunition, handgun ammunition on one side, rifle/shotgun on the other. Now all the ammunition is on one row, and its mostly empty.
Great store with great people
No salesperson ever asked if they could assist me the entire hour I was there, plus the cashier seemed uncertain of the return policy.
