It's very rare that I write reviews, only when I'm very disappointed or in this case happen upon a…read moresuperb merchant. I live in Savannah, GA which is a one-hour drive from TC Outdoors in Statesboro, GA. The Savannah area population is 14 times greater than Stateboro's and other than pawn shops we have 12 gun stores including BassPro/Cabela's and Dick's Sporting Goods. Meanwhile Statesboro only has two locally-owned gunshops one of which is TC Outdoors. It follows that gun and accessory prices should be less in Savannah than Statesboro and even better deals are usually obtainable through big volume websites. Shopping for a new Tikka T3X 30-06 rifle I invested a lot of time gathering prices from all the above sources. At $105 below MSRP TC Outdoors beat them all. I also needed a scope, range finder, shotgun, hard-shell gun case, and shotgun ammo. Knowing exactly what I wanted and having researched prices through the big volume websites, TC Outdoors prices were the same to only 10% higher for the shotgun shells. Surprisingly they had everything I wanted in stock and to support a locally-owned business I was happy to pay slightly more for the ammo. TC's owner, Ty, and his staff are exceptionally friendly, knowledgeable, and mounted/bore-sighted the rifle scope for me. I reload my rifle and handgun ammo and was glad to see TC also stocks those items plus abundant fishing or other outdoor gear and accessories.

I bought my son a used tan Glock 19 5th gen 3-4 days ago for his 18th birthday. He really wanted…read moretan and the gen 6 only comes in black. Over the weekend he decided he'd rather get the gen 6 in black and change the color. I paid $550 (plus tax etc - $600 total) for the gen 5. I expected to eat the tax, fees and maybe a $50 restocking fee ($100 or so) and then buy the new one $700. They would have made $700 plus $100 on the one I returned and still gotten $550 by selling it again. Instead they wanted to give me $400 for a gun I just gave them $600 for three days ago. I haven't even taken it out of the box. The kid (and I mean kid) was smug the whole time. He tried to tell me that it had deprecated $150 in three days. I even offered to meet them in the middle. They were essentially shaking me down for what ammounted to a $200 restocking fee. Now either they overcharged me for the gun a few days ago or they were trying to screw me on the exchange, it's one or the other. They tried to get the $200 profit they made the first time, plus another $200 on the return or $400 profit on a gun they say is only worth $400. Instead they lost the sale of a new gen 6 along with a customer. I'll never go there again and I'd suggest you don't either.

Dunham's Sports is a relatively new addition to the Statesboro shopping scene. It opened in…read moreNovember 2016 in the Kmart shopping center across the street from Statesboro Mall. For a small city like Statesboro, this is a nice sporting goods store to have. It's cut in the mold of a big box retailer like Dick's Sporting Goods though not as nice and there's more of a focus on guns and outdoor, hunting, fishing, and camping gear. As a Georgia Tech alum, I was surprised to see they actually carry a decent amount of Georgia Tech apparel. In the state of Georgia, outside of metro Atlanta, Georgia Tech apparel can be hard to find. Not here. Of course, they have apparel for UGA as well plus Atlanta's pro sports teams (Braves, Falcons, and Hawks). As a golfer, I was impressed with the golf department. They call theirs the "Fairway Center." From apparel to equipment, they carry several major brands including Callaway, Nike, TaylorMade, Titleist, and Under Armour. They have everything you need to play including modern styles on shoes and apparel and some current club models, particularly when it comes to drivers and putters. They also carry clubs/sets for junior/kid golfers. If you're a college sports fan, they have golf bags with various school logos on them (not surprisingly, they are mainly SEC schools). There's a simulator where you can hit balls and try different clubs out. The staff can do club fittings and they can re-grip clubs too. When I visited, the most popular section of the store was the gun section. They stock a wide variety of rifles and handguns, ammo, and accessories (e.g. sights). If you're looking for a secure place to store your gun collection, they sell safes in various sizes. Most of the safes are big so they can accommodate rifles. For the ladies, they offer concealed carry purses in a variety of "fashionable" styles. I had fun checking out all the camo gear. Currently, this is one of three Dunham's locations in Georgia. The other two are in LaGrange and Rome. This is a nationwide chain with over 230 locations. Most of the stores are located in smaller cities like Statesboro.

I gave them my weapons carry license and evidently they don't take them even though you use it everywhere else to purchase. I ask why and they said it's policy.

The individual helping me was on his cell phone the whole time messaging and reading social media (yes I could see his phone).

They both treated my questions about running shoes and other products rudely. I have been a runner longer than either of them have been alive and I know more about running than they ever could. I will not shop in this Hibbett's Sports Store or any other Hibbett's store or Hibbett Sports online again. I urge you all to avoid this store. I also urge the owner to be much more careful when employing people.

Not much hippie type or permaculture stuff and not a huge variety. Plant starts: They have some 6 packs of veggie starts, which is way cheaper than little individually potted ones. Lowes in town has individually potted veggies and herbs for $6 each. Meanwhile, here you can get a 6 pack of starts for $6. That's what I'm looking for. The convenience of starts over seeds, for a little extra cost, as opposed to a big extra cost everywhere else in town. Selection was not super good. Maybe 1 kind of cherry tomatoes (sweet 100s or something), 2 kinds of regular tomatoes, 1 kind of beans in the 6 packs. It's several different kinds of veggies, but after you get to lettuce, or to broccoli, there will only be one kind of lettuce starts. Seeds: If it's something grown by the acre around here, the price is right. They have big containers of Clemson spineless okra and all these kinds of beans, and you buy by the pound. They have preweighed seed packs, and prices on packs start under a dollar for the weight. Beyond bulk seeds, there is about nothing. Sometimes independent feed stores will stock displays of seed packs, but this store does not have about any. I was looking for malabar spinach seeds and that kind of thing. There's nothing like that. For seeds for the permaculture stuff and things that aren't commercially grown (ie. don't transport well), you gotta find a seed catalog to order from online. Fruit trees: They have some fruit trees and flower plants and stuff. These seem kept well, but not a great selection. Southernscapes in Statesboro probably is better about that because it has a bigger selection. It has plenty of other feed store stuff, like bulk supplies for livestock and farming. Basically, it's a traditional feed store with some cutesy stuff for home gardening. It has posted hours, but a lot of the time when I get here, they closed early and have a signed taped to the door that says they closed early at noon instead of 5pm for the day. Probably call ahead if you are coming from out of town. This is a good place to check out if you are new in town, since it's got the variety and quality you would expect from a good feed store.
