My experience at Academy sports is fine. They generally have what I need. But like most retailers dealing with e-commerce competition. There selection is limited and lastly there are more merchandisers than cashiers which equals long lines during busy periods.
My go-to for camping gear and supplies. They carry some of the same brands sold at higher end outdoor stores at a fraction of the cost. Scored a cook set for $30 cheaper! Store is always clean, staff is polite and always have want Im looking for.
We had a drive for the holidays and needed over 100 sleeping bags. The employee, Noah needs to get employee of the year!!! He was so nice and extremely helpful, he was honestly the ONLY one who assisted us from the beginning until the end...he even helped us load the truck. I wanted to make a note that the manager of the store who worked today’s shift at 3 pm was the most unhelpful individual I have ever came a cross who works retail. For someone to have such a negative attitude and a dismissive attitude towards us was disgusting; especially after we told her our purpose of getting these items was for a drive.
Very clean and organized store. I don’t know if they were short staffed or not because they only had one register and about 10 people trying to check out. But we found what we’re looking for. Yeti lid replacements.
Absolutely love this store! I love how theres a variety of sports Athletics and Outdoors its the perfect combination for a store. It would be 5 star if they carried Atlanta Hawks gear!
LOVE THIS PLACE! I SPEND A FORTUNE EVERYTIME. I CAN ALWAYS FIND WHAT I NEED AT A GREAT PRICE. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS STORE! They dont have a limit on ammo right now but do not have all calibers or gauges in stock.
Nice big store, they need more people on the check out lines when the lines get long though!
Went to get a new hammock for this year .thay were out ! So got some bling for one of the rifles. And a dozen crank baits
I ordered one item online and went to there to pick up. They couldnt find and made me wait for 10 min. Finally they found my stuff(just under the table), and gave me without any apologies. As if it is normal.Hope they can improve their service
Nice clean store. Helpful sales people. Came to buy corn for the deer, which they had. A friendly young man loaded the (1)40 lb. bags for us! My husband bought basketball shorts at a reasonable price $15 and I purchased a pair of Aasica running shoes, on sale! They are having a storewide sale...
Be careful with buying sunglasses from Academy they do not exchange nor do they return money on any of their glasses Newnan, Georgia Academy says.
They had just what we wanted. Soccer shoes were only at this location. All other stores were sold out
Great store. Great selection and very helpful staff for just about all your needs and wants
The store is great to shop at and the staff is friendly. However... a fast checkout would make it better. 2 registers open and “management” walking around with a line backed into the clothes section. Staffing is hard these days in retail but when employees are available standing around and you don’t open registers to take customers money that’s a problem.Update 12/11 - Same as before. Store is well kept but the check out experience is a disaster if its even slightly busy. Other Academy locations have a single line when it’s busy to keep a steady flow customers, and avoid someone with one item getting stuck behind a problem and can’t shift to another line. It would be very easy to clear the front aisle then when it’s busy have one of the 2-3 folks wondering around or the person leaning on the podium at the front manage the single line to keep things smooth by directing to the next open register. Certainly not giving insights on something I don’t know anything about, been doing customer retail for 20 years…. Just needs someone inside the 4 walls to say there has to be a better way, explore the options, and lead their team.
Just bought a .308 savage arms from here. Love the gun. I was going to get a different one but the guy at the gun counter (i think his name was Paul) convinced me to get this one. Absolutely LOVED the service and professionalism he displayed. He made it very easy to decide which gun i wanted and gave me tons of suggestions and tips. He definitely deserves a raise. Been shopping at this academy ever since they built it and I’ve never had a single problem with the employees, service, or anything like that. Probably the best experience I’ve had buying a gun. Will definitely be coming back again like i always do. 11/10
Would be 5 stars but they didnt have anyone on hand to teach me to play sports. Not a very good academy.
Has. Been favorite store for years always having what I looking for
1st time shopper. I was there for work boots. Great selection on boots and sneakers.
I love their prices compared to other sporting goods stores in the area. They sell great products at great prices.
We love to shop here for our sports needs... whether hunting, fishing, outdoors wear, etc... you usually can find some goods sales or mark downs and a decent selection of items.
Excellent customer service and sweet firearms at a reasonable price
I want to give a two thumbs up to an employee there buy the name of Ricky. Im new to the area and Ive been going to this store since I moved here and not once has I ever had a employee acknowledge me or even speak. Except when Im entering the building. Thats until I ran across Ricky. As I was passing by. Ricky spoke andasked my how was I doing and could he help me with anything. I was shocked that a person working there had said something to me .Which made made my day. Thanks Ricky for being colored blind....
Cannot get anybody to answer the phone. I guess They have enough business, they don’t need mine. Going to Tractor Supply. Oh yeah, I’m not sure what the role of the person that stands at the front door, they need to learn how to say hello and thank you. But not expecting much, just some courtesy
My wife and I go here often enough for clothes , gear , etc. Its been our go to store for quite sometime. Thinking about purchasing a kayak from them in the very near future . Always good experience/ pricing here for us . Highly recommend to everyone often
Lots of clearance, but main aisles were junkie by all the clearance racks and displays
So much selection to choose from goodness wow
Didnt have my color and size in the shoe I needed but had other colors in the right size for me to try on. The department associate Grace offered assistance and had knowledge of the differences between the shoes I was interested in (which I knew to be true because Id already done my research ;) I tried a few on, made my selection, and she ordered the pair I liked in the color I wanted. I appreciated the service, especially since its so rare these days. See Grace if you go in.
I like this store.They have everything! 1 STOP Shop Forreal!
Very well stocked,clean store.
Guy behind gun counter is always rude. Cant update stock online
I bought fish finder $539.00, and 5 month later it failed. They dont take return. I will not shop at academy again
Although I did purchase a new hand gun, the service was horrible I guess the good ol boy network still exist!¡!!! Shame on them, but the gentleman who helped me was remarkable and knowledgeable of the fire arm I purchased!!!
Really impressed with their selections in fishing equipment
The worm selection was huge and the worms were so juicy and lively that I wanted to bite on my own fishing lines. Hope its like this often cause Walmart worms are rotten, dead, or ransacked.
A fair place to make your offering to our capitalist overlords
Great prices but staff stands around talking with one register opened and many guests in line. Did not open another register and the manager was standing there. Dont be in a hurry here this happens all of the time
The person whose job was to organize the lines was propped up at a register, only half paying attention causing chaos mid afternoon on a Saturday. Not a lot of duffle bag options. Found a great selection of tennis shoes though!
Would give it 5stars but the guy (Jacob) in the firearms department, acted like he wasn’t interested in helping a person of color. Lied about wait time, slung his tablet towards me, ignored my question and acted as tho I was bothering him. His service sucks and makes me not want to return
Decent service and good selection of stuff .
I buy a lot of gear here for the family. great selection and friendly staff.
Went in after school with my two girls to buy all their softball equipment for their first season ever. We needed everything. Waited around for 20 minutes and circled the store a few times looking for help. The one employee who did see us wouldn’t make eye contact and zoomed by us. Total wasted time about 45 minutes without help. Wasn’t greeted at the front door upon arrival. When leaving the store, we stopped by customer service and asked if employees on the floor still helped customers. He said they did and I explained my situation. When I said I wasn’t interested in buying anything anymore, he didn’t apologize or anything. I will not spend hundreds of dollars in a store and get this kind of customer service. This location has gone downhill.
Limited stock. Great place to shop.
Been standing here for 10 min at the firearms department without even being attended to. Poor service
Couldnt find anybody in the shoe department to help so I left and went to a shoe store.
Very professional, friendly and general understanding of customer needs. Very knowledgeable about their areas to answer any questions I had. Thank you and will return.
The first time I came here to pick up a bike I had no problems. I used the email to notify employees for curbside service and they brought my bike out with no issues. Today(10/10/20) the older guy at the front lobby was rude. I used the email to notify them of my arrival and no one showed up to my vehicle after 5 minutes. When I go inside the older load prevention guy cuts me off to give me wipes because he thought I touched the trash can. Then makes a rude comment about my size when I was picking up my bike. He seems very socially awkward.
Employees very helpful. Picking last minute items for my next hunting trip to South Dakota.
Personally we all know there is an ammo shortage but just dont feel its quite fair that they keep stock of ammo in the back and refuse to sell it to customer actually dont have any and arent trying buy everything they see as this happened at academy in newnan ga. Was not impressed at all considered all i want is 500rd 22 cal box.
Not my place to go. Very unprofessional added with an uncomfortable environment. Horrible Customer service. Felt as though I was being followed for no apparent reason. Would not recommend to buy ammo or guns being that theyre always out of stock! I wish I could rate 0.
Disappointed in the the service at this store. We purchased a bike, but noticed the brakes were not adjusted correctly. Before leaving the store we asked to have the brakes adjusted. We were told the bike assemblers would be in the next day, that they would fix the bike and that we would be called when the bike was ready for pickup.The next day came and went. Nobody called. The following day we went to retrieve the bike, and the brakes had still not been adjusted. We were offered the option of leaving the bike at the store to possibly have it fixed at some future date, maybe, or to cancel the sale for a refund. I expected better from Academy Sports.
Good place to get a little bit of everything. Decent prices and good employees. They have everything from shoes and clothing to grills and guns and fishing equipment . All in all ...... a pretty good place .
Big store, many great sport and outdoor items. Large clothing section with good selection. I ordered an item on line and picked it up in the store. They offer curbside pickup, but I toured the store. Many open spots on the shelves. I will return in a week to see if they restocked.
Stop putting people in departments they know nothing about. You had what looked to be a 19 yr old girl in the hunting department and when asked a question she had the “deer in headlights” look because she didn’t have the first clue of what I was talking about as she continued to txt her friend on the phone. Worthless……
Its so hard to find sizes in shoes and nobody ever wants to help locate what you are looking for. Ive ordered online for store pickup while standing in the store thinking it will be easier just to have them cancel numerous times. Im done with this store. Was going to buy a display shoe just to have them tell me they couldnt locate the matching shoe so I was out of luck!
Associates not friendly unless youre.....Went there 3 times same encounter. Will not be back
Joseph at the gun department was excellent, professional and so helpful. He took the time to explain everything thoroughly with patience. He was totally great, and please make sure to find him if you want to feel you are special there. I was totally impressed by the excellent customer service I received from this gentleman.I enjoy shopping here, and will definitely recommend to everyone.
Good place to shop for indoor and outdoor sports items, guns, work shoes and a lot more. Staff is just OK. They wont volunteer to help you to find something and will try to disappear if they realize you need some help. It happened a few time. One more problem is there bad inventory. Theyll have something in computer but not on the shelf.
The employee I talked to had no clue what shoes were good for what Ill be back but honestly if your going to work at a shoe store maybe so some research so when people ask you can say I know instead of I dont know.
Found what i was looking for. The only downside was long lines. It was a surprise to me to see that many people shopping at Academy all at once. Academy needs to hire more people for checkout.
This Academy Sports is awesome the people that work there are great and very helpful. EJ, I believe is his name he was so helpful and nice helped me a couple of times ! He is a star employee and deserves to be acknowledged of it! People are very quick to write bad reviews so when deserved I will make a point to make it known! Thanks EJ, I hope that’s your name lol I’m pretty sure it is!
Went in to the store to purchase a new pistol. I had been shopping around and found the same one 12.00 cheaper at another establishment (Adventure Outdoors). The young lady helping me said they do match prices and that she would check with the manager. They were true to their word and did so! Excellent customer service! Just stay away from the little heavy set man that looks like Mario. He will tell you they don’t match prices with Adventure Outdoors 😞
They actually had the item we were looking for and expected them to not have it. And the price was considerably less than I expected. They still remain a bit pricey on their firearms and most related items. Overall, I had a great experience and Academy Sports & Outdoors in Newnan, Ga. is a wonderful establishment to shop.
Exceptional quality on merchandise in stock, rarely out of anything. Best overall selection of clothing, shoes and outdoor gear around. Easy to navigate and get out quickly.
They have some great product at reasonable prices. Some staff were awesome, others not at all.
No complaints so I reckon well give em 5 stars. Ammo selection is per the 2020/2021 norm but cant hold that against em.
Good selection on clothes and sports section. Camping was ok stocked. Hardly and guns and no ammo which sucked.
The store mixes returns in the same line as purchases. I waited 15 minutes in line since the customer before me was doing a return.Why are they processing returns in the same line with checkouts?Poor management and store procedures.
I went tonight to buy my daughters some shoes... A Male employee was very rude and disrespectful to my 13 year old and made a comment on how wrong she was about a pair of shoes and told her not to say something... I find it totally out of place and very disrespectful for him to say ANYTHING to my daughter. We wernt even talking to him. Someone might wanna train the employee better on manners and how NOT to talk to customers before people start not to shop there...
My favorite sporting goods store in town. They have a little bit of everything and a great selection for outdoor cooking.
Very pricey they are proud if their stuff that is for sure
Mostly keep good selections in stock, but on occasion they let me down. Though Ive bought a few rifles from them and they never let me down there, even on relatively weird gun selections like my c308. I wish yall kept more ammo in stock. Seems like it takes a month or two to replenish certain types like steel 7.62x51. Which is unfortunate because I would buy it all the time!
Very clean and well organized
Shout out to Thomas B. Helped me and my father-in-law over the phone and then in person at the store for a gun purchase. Thomas is very knowledgeable, professional, and personable, hard characteristics to find these days in big box stores. Thank you!
This isnt a review of the store so much as a review of one of their associates. The guy with the pony tail that works in the gun department to be specific. I think his name is Jeff. If he spent less time spying around endcaps at customers and more time asking if they need help that would be great. I was in the store looking at ammo only to catch this guy staring and it doesnt sit well with me. He made the entire experience uncomfortable to say the least. Not once did he ask if I need help with anything but I see him watching my movement several times. Thanks for the great customer service, Jeff... or whatever your name is.
Very disappointed in the level of customer service I experienced today. My husband and I were ready to buy an elliptical and weight machine. We asked for someone to assist us twice and waited for almost 30 minutes with no help provided.
One of my favorite sporting good places when youre looking for an item you can always find it here if not the staff is more than willing to help you locate it recommended for all
Great service Im going to get me a book two weeks cuz they help me out
The standard for employee social etiquette is head above shoulders majority of other places I have been too. Very polite, curteous and attentive to your needs as a customer.
I love shopping here
I checked online for product and confirmed it was in stock. We drove almost an hour only to find the shelf with the tag for the item we were looking for had the wrong item stocked. I asked an employee for help, she looked up the item and said they have 4 in stock. She called for further assistance. It took over 5 minutes for the other employee (EC was on his name tag) to show up and all he did was look on the same shelf and say they dont have this item. Im beyond frustrated by the lack of customer assistance. I will not be back to this store.
Academy is my first stop when I am looking for sports equipment, clothes , or guns and ammo. The prices are always competitive and the employees eager to help. Today I purchased a youths baseball glove. Great price and even on sale .Thanks
Bought a pair of Justin boots that fell apart in 5 months and the store refused to do anything. A store that doesnt back the products it sells will never get another penny out of my pocket. Dont waste your money at this business
I do not like that none of their employees are wearing masks or practicing social distancing for encouraging customers to do so.They also had almost no batteries and almost no selection if theyre rack was full.
Best sporting goods store period!
Go to buy a gun and the two people working in the gun department do not know much about guns. They didnt even know where they kept a specific gun that I was interested in purchasing. Manager should staff their store much better.
A great place for my sons! They have many items, including shoes, clothing, sports equipment all under one roof for an affordable price. We bought 2 awesome brand name rucksacks ( I.e.higher quality backpacks )for school in 2013 , that still look nearly new. Even rare bike tubes can be found here( sizes not available elsewhere) . Im grateful for the convenient location as well.
I went today to buy two guns and a $1499.99 browning gun safe. The customer service was extremely poor. The manager in duty, Sean, showed extreme disinterest in showing me the safes and even brought me the wrong safe out of the back due to the lack of attention he was paying to me. I was trying to ask him questions about the safes and the shelving and specs on them but he just stood there with zero comment. He was very rude to me, the people with me and his employees. They were all constantly apologizing to me saying hes always like this and they are very sorry. Never ever go to Academy in Newnan with this manager in duty!
I was in line to check out and was sent to customer service to purchase my hunting license where I had several people that the checkout lady sent in front of me, after waiting another 20 minutes without any acknowledge ment I left and will not be returning. Went to Walmart and purchased everything I needed at a lower price and was acknowledge d.
Easy fast check out. Friendly people.
Good organized location that always tends to have helpful and polite staff.
Customer service was subpar and pushy. They targeted my childs wants versus my needs for him. They werent knowledgeable of inventory or its placement and seemed annoyed and more concerned about getting me through the checkout process and out the door, satisfied or not.
Favorite place to go shopping for my husbands hats because he can be so picky with his fitted hats! They have a great selection of multiple brands ranging from under armour to Nike and everything on between.
If I could give them zero stars I would. I walked in the exit door. They made me leave to come back inside. I could have stepped 6 feet to me left and walked through the inner entrance doors, but no, I had to leave and come through the correct exterior door. So I did. And then I left. You will see none of my money for the rest of my life.
Academy always has the best customer service and they take care of any issues you may have with a purchase no questions asked.
I went into the fishing department somewhat of a large collection of Chinese lures I was looking for old school lures made in the USA I guess I can forget that here anyway.
Great place to shop,I do alot of online pickup as well
Cliff notes - paid for CO2 tanks to be filled and new tank, was made to feel like I was stealing my own tanks, charged for filling five tanks, and they didnt fill any of them. Not even a little.Great selection and friendly staff, provided you dont need anything firearm or paintball related. I bought a co2 tank and had 4 others filled last time I was there, the guy took my tanks and told me to go wait at the cashiers desk, he brought them and left, then had to come back to convince the cashier that I was only buying one tank and just filling the others because obviously I was trying to steal more tanks than they had in stock and they have no convenient way of indicating this like Dicks does. Paid more per tank to fill them then at Dicks. Then, on top of all that, THEY DIDNT EVEN FILL THE TANKS. Not one. All empty. The weight of the new tank threw me off and had me thinking it felt right but after I picked them up individually I could tell they were light, but I didnt think they would left them completely empty. And if you need any help with any firearm questions, you might as well Google it.
Good selection for a small town.
Update: Not only did we wait a total of 20 minutes to receive an answer regarding this display/discontinued item, once we received an answer, we were offered 10% off of the marked price. This item had visible scuffs, shoe prints, and ink stains, the employees themselves had cut off the zipper to prevent people from unzipping it in store, and we were told it was discontinued. At this point, this bag was used, but the manager on duty apparently believes that a used item should sell for $5 less than brand new.
Wandered around looking for help with shoes. Never saw a soul. Went to look at guns as Im in the market to purchase. The man answered exactly two questions, showed me one gun and just......abandoned me. At least he took the gun back first. Store was clean and cashier was friendly.
As a black female I have rarely experienced being followed around a store. This was my first experience and worst of all with my kids. They will never see me or my money again!! At first I was impressed with the good morning, and are you finding everything ok and is there anything we can help you with and then I noticed I was the only one they were saying it too WOW. Then when we proceeded to the check out my bag was the only one searched because they had been having problems with the sensors. I would like to say thank you for allowing my son to see how some of you people really see him.
Was very welcoming, and helpful
Better when Steven was here. Walked around for 45min passed 8 employees not one asked if they could help. Go to check out one lane open, six waiting to pay, four employees standing in chat circle giggling. One cashier had to interrupt them to help other paying customers. And the response to the call for help was all over their faces like really we are talking!Disappointed whoever is running this store now sucks at it.
Everything you need for the outdoors. Nice selection of guns, fishing and camping gear. All the top name clothes. They also have a nice golf center. Bow tuning on site also.
Two cashers were open and 5 people in each line. Casher was great, however there happen to be 5 other employees in blue shirts standing behind the custecus service sign just shootin the breeze. They looked over several times but not one could open a till in customer service to hekp out the line. Then two walked off still talking, then stopping in front of the doors for about 10 minutes. Customer service is less then 2 stars but the cashier who helped me was very kind! He deserves 5 stars!!
Clean organize and the people were very friendly
I have been buying several assault rifles per week here as well as buying here to stockpile my ammunition supply. Academy is great because they never ask questions and always greet me as a regular.
Great store and great prices. Employees are so friendly and are always asking you if you need help with anything. Just a positive environment for shopping sports and outdoors.
My go-to for buying pistols in town. Usually good deals on most items. My family comes here often.
Our family loves the selection of sports, hobby and clothing for the whole family from kids to parents. Academy has a great variety of shoes at good prices and lots of toys, workout equipment and supplements.
Nice store, friendly service. But after the new year you cant find hardly anything in stock 😕
No customer service. Found a pair a sneakers I wanted but one of them was attached to the display lock. Found an employee but she was on a personal phone call while stocking shelves. Left without purchase.
Great I was in and out those guys took care of me only tried on one pair of shoes and sealed the deal.
Lots of selection on evrything. Its a good store and the prices are generally good. They hire stock people though, not customer servive or sales associates. Kniw what you want and dont expect help... Not saying you wont get lucky.
Very clean store. Friendly associates. Good prices.
The store is very well organized and the employees are incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and try to share their experiences with items that you may be interested in and try to guide you to whats going to be best for you personally.
The store was busy, of course, right before Christmas. But all employees were really helpful, about five I had contact with. Special thanks to Corey for getting me help in the boat area!
They acted like they didnt want to help my wife and I. I will never do business here again. Such ashame.
Dillion in gun section helped me pick out the best air rifle. Friendly and took time to help me. 10/10 coming to this one every time. I’m gonna get those squirrels out of my attic in half the time now!!!! Hahaha.
I was greeted with a smile and asked if I needed assistance. I found a great pair of workout shoes and sports bra at reasonable prices. I will definitely visit again!
The greeter was very friendly and helpful. He took the time to escort me to the area where I needed to go. His timing was awesome, because I was in a hurry and he helped me expedite my shopping.
Plenty of items in sock and large number of helpful staff. My family and I went and found just what we needed at reasonable prices.
Very neat store.
My favorite outdoor store by far. They generally have what we need for our kids sporting equipment, the staff is helpful, and the store is laid out in a format where you can walk in and find what youre looking for almost immediately.
I’ve always found this to be a great academy location. They have everything, good pricing, well-stocked, well-lit, and friendly people.Guns, fishing, camping, hunting, athletic gear, sunglasses, baseball, softball, football, hockey, running, shoes, skates, bikes, ncaa team gear, boating, recreational, so much more.
Nice staff. helpful. some prices are great, depending on product and sales. helpful staff. located in shopping center with a home depot, Ross Dress for Less and Khols.
The staff has always been friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Great selection too.
Great customer service at check out. Terah Capell was very helpful with everything even offered me the credit card, and I was approved.
Nice store staff was super nice. Super clean and had great sales going on when I was there!!!!
Austin in the gun department was incredibly helpful and saved our lives by helping us reassemble our shotgun. He is AWESOME!!!
Solid academy with a very helpful staff
They have everything youd expect to find in a sports equipment store. A lot of precautions set up for COVID but the lines were a little long.
Sells $500.00 grills but not replacement parts. Not good
One of the better sporting goods stores I have been too. Great prices on firearms and great selection. I can always find what I need here.
Really good Academy. Like the selection of kids clothes and shoes. Would like to see a little higher discount on the clearance, its not clearance if the regular price is 55 and its on sale for 49.99.
Good customer service
Love this store. They have great products. A tad on the pricey side but I guess you get what you pay for. Im trying hard to learn that lesson!
Couldnt find what I was looking for. Yet there were 4 employees all back near the shoe are socializing. Left without buying anything.
Service is always good and friendly. Love the products and pricing, best deals for sneakers are closer to the weekend.
Great deals always, and great selection. We tend to buy shoes here. Check out lines are fast, and overall shopping experience is Always a pleasure!
No customer support after the purchase. I purchase a weight set at the Newnan GA store and one of the star nuts was misthreaded and would not screw on. I took the nut to the store and a manager named Steven, who had terrible customer service and communication skills, told me he couldnt help me and I would need to take back the entire 110lb set. I told him I already discarded the boxes and I only needed the 2in round nut. It would be difficult to bring an unpackaged weight set and bars back to the store. Steven said he couldnt do anything else for us. I saw lots of these star nuts in the displays and I asked to speak to Steven again but he told a store associate to tell me he wouldnt talk to me again and I had to take my whole set back or purchase another nut myself. The guy wouldnt even come out and talk to me again. I called customer service and they gave me the number of the weight manufacturer and told me to call them. Dicks and Wal-Mart wouldnt have done this to me. I think Im done with Academy after this.
Big store with all your sporting needs. Clothing for all ages very reasonably priced. Hunting, fishing, shooting sports, golf, fitness, soccer, baseball, cycling, camping, they have it all.
Good selections, reasonable prices and gave a retired teacher discount
Good location found just what I was looking for an excellent overall experience ...A+
Found what we were looking for. It took a little time at the gun counter.
I like the selection and the prices are very reasonable. They usually have sales going on and you can get quality clothes and shoes or equipment for many activities.
Great selection and nice staff 👍👍
This store has some pretty good fishing gear and at really good prices
Very clean and employees know what you need theyll go find it.
No fun for child, and very expensive
Great selection and prices. Always employees standing around though. Happy to help, but you usually have to go to them.
Its a nice store but no cashiers we had to stand in a long line at the return counter. I would have put it down and went somewhere else but my wife didnt want to.
The staff is always helpful!
I love this store (amazingly priced tennis shoes), but at this location there are always people greeting (I think) instead of checking people out, leading to long lines because there are usually only two registers open.
They have a very poor selection of cleats of all kinds had one gentleman help me told me a pair of cleats was 20 bucks get up to the register and they are almost 40 have to go back to pick out a another pair different gentleman helps me find the proper pair great help second gentlemen very helpful very polite apologize for the error of the other person but overall selection is poor when it comes to cleats in general
Everyone that works there I pretty much enjoy their service as I was looking at shoeseveryone ask me am I finding everything okay and I enjoyed that any question that I wanted to ask I had an answer for from them great service guys
Prices are not competitive. Store was well stocked.
Who doesnt love an outdoor sports store? Always friendly here, even offered to carry boats out for us once
Great sports store with very good prices. Very large selection of everything sports related. They also have a very large outdoor section (fishing/camping/grilling/hunting).
Every one was very nice and offered to help us find what we needed one associate needs a little more training but all and all a great place
Good selection, decent prices on athletic gear and shoes.
They always have what I want as far as fishing equipment goes not the best prices but that is to be expected if you dont want to wait for delivery
Big box sports store more geared towards athletics than camping and hiking pretty good assortment of fishing and hunting gear though.
Customer service is excellent but this store often doesnt have items we are shopping for.
Nice people but was hoping that they had the shotgun in that I want. I will go back
I love shopping at this place great price and good people nice
Found exactly what I needed and the customer service was very impressive.
Easy process for online pick up because Grandpa bought his first grand son his first bike
Nice store with lots of shopping options. I didnt require any assistance but the employees seemed helpful.
Great customer service easy to find my items and was made to laugh and had an enjoyable-time with the employees I did see some unpleasant customers though who made the employees job much harder than it needed to be.
Great customer service. Robert was very helpful. Great prices and great service. What else can you ask for?
You can always find what youre looking for, great shirts, and gifts!
Good inventory and great people, always my GO TO.
Best selection of hunting, fishing and outdoor gear in Newnan. So many choices that its hard to choose. Thats a good problem to have in my opinion
Low prices and good selection. I would like to see more in the camping area. Overall best big box sporting goods store.
Academy has a lot of stop in a lot of categories but a lot of the stuff in those categories like if youre looking for a tent or hiking stuff they might have one set of trekking poles or 1/10 not a lot of hiking stuff they have nothing in fly fishing either
They always have just what Im looking for friendly staff nice place
Staff was not helpful. But lots of items in stock.
I love the great selection in the fishing department!
Great store with affordable prices. Always has deer corn when other places dont. They do not give a military discount
Nice place to shop any other time of year, this close to Christmas they were out of a lot of stuff
Found what I wanted and needed!!!
Great place for all your out door needs. Especially for ammo and fishing supplies. Staff is always very knowledgeable and helpful.
Sports academy is the place to go for Ammunition
Got some great deals on softball equipment and signed up my girls for spring ball. How can you not like that!
If need sports gear, great selection, excellent prices. Lots of hunting and shooting equipment. Plenty of Ammo!
Was trying find a specific lure and could not find any help. Another customer helped me look and said try asking at the gun counter. That employee said they were helping in both areas, but couldnt leave the gun counter. I was unhappy after spending 30 min looking send left without it.
Very knowledgeable gun guys
Customer service always good, but bad selections

2022-06-16Id love to see better prices in here for workout outfits but I have caught some great sales and think its nice they give a military discount. The place is always clean and neat looking. And people at the register are nice. Would love people throughout the store to help. I needed help finding some sneakers but figured it out. The sneakers are kinda scattered weird.

2022-07-02The prices on ammo are to high for the volume they have. They are not having trouble getting ammo in but the prices are still over twice what they were before the shortage. Having so much sports and outdoor products they could lower the prices on alot of things.

2021-11-11Wow!! Amazing brand. I typically shop for sports, outdoor and accessories at another big box brand. The store was clean and very neat. An unbelievable selection of product. Brightly lite and custom friendly. Spacious and easy to see and shop without being crowded.Custom service was fast and staff was present in the sales floor.Prices are reasonable and based on the quality of product you select.Name brand on all items, fishing, hunting, sports, you need it, they have it.
