If you want cabella's or bass pro pricing, just buy it from thier catalog or on the web. Who cares if there is one nearby. Anybody can get that price, anywhere.

BassPro alone has over 40 stores and by the end of next year over 50.Cabelas now has 15 with another 8 soon.Where these places open the little guy closes.

Are you ever going to find a Hab's or Tattoo's at one of these?Not a chance.Why?These guys don't have the resources of minimum wage or foreign workers to churn out thousands of plugs.And if they did the plugs would become sub-standard.

I'll go to the grand opening and play with a bunch of stuff.If I find something I truly like I'll head over to SWE and ask Pete "Hey Pete,can you order this for me?"
