Gentleman, the suggestions have gotten through.  Decoy selection is still limited but not as limited as it was.  Lots of GHG and Cabelas brand.  I did see some boxes of scoters.  Not all motion decoys anymore.  Lots of  bags and calls to choose from.  They are starting to catch on. 

Tealer, on a side note I swore I saw you there yesterday.  Made me do a double take.

 "I did see some boxes of scoters."  Are they really getting that popular?, I hope not cause it's a sure sign they will close the seasonit with declining populations not turning around :twocents:.

Not aware that I must be constructive to a retail store that does not support this site. If your looking to push Cabelas that hard may e they should pony up and sponsor the site.

How is asking for input by hunters on what they would like to see in the store pushing the store? People were complaining about what was in stock, so they asked if they could get input from the local hunters on what they would like to see in the the store.

I didn't feel like he was pushing Cabelas either. Seems like the op was just trying to help guys get the gear they want in a local store.

Tealer... I understand your need to support he mom and pop shop, but like Jeep said, how is giving them feedback a bad thing? Pick your "mom and pop shop" say Holiday Market, or Morgans Outfitter in Sedro... If one of them came on here asking what we thought they should carry that they do not should we tell them to get lost???
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

I think is comment was related to the reported "Tealer" sighting. RE:

Ya'll get a little touchy in the off seaon?   :chuckle:

For the record, I avoid Cobela's and it has nothing to do with selection   :hello:

My comment wasn't supporting or against Cabellas... Not touchy at all and if tealer or anyone else want to only shot mom and pop God Bless...

I think i point this out because of a run in with a resturant i had a while back, I was so pissed off i vowed to never go back. The problem was I didn't tell the MGR why i won't be coming back so there is no way for the MGR to fix the problem.   :twocents:
