BLUF: THE place to go for archery! Review is focused on the…read morearchery pro shop. My coworker had been telling me to check out Wilcox for years, and I finally got around to it. I told the staff I was interested in starting archery, and they took the time to let me try a couple of bows and explain how to shoot. I came back the next day and bought a bow. Included in the purchase were all of the adjustments and tuning to customize the bow to my draw length and weight. Absolutely fantastic service, highly recommend them. As the name implies, they also have a great selection of fishing equipment, and a decent selection of guns and hunting supplies. Great place to get outfitted for your next adventure.

3 almost 4 generations of my family have been buying from Wilcox for decades. To the point that…read morewhen I told my family that I was buying a Van from them we were not only trusting of their business practices, but enthusiastic to have what we consider a part of our family's history being integrated within our daily routines. I saved for months to put together the cash for a Van, and after I contacted them Pat Wilcox as well as his associate reassured me of how roadworthy their Van was. When I specifically asked if it would pass inspection I was told "Definitely" and that the only reason it was past inspection was that Pat had just bought a fleet of 16 Vans from Florida for a steal and they were just dumping their older fleet vehicles so they wouldn't have to keep paying insurance on them. Pat even used the roadworthyness of the vehicle as a negotiating tactic on why he wouldn't go any lower in price even though there were several things broken and wrong cosmetically with the van and I told him that this was every dollar I have. When I took the van to the exact same place Wilcox takes all his vehicles to be inspected they were surprised I even made it there because of how rusted out the Crossmember on the van was. They told me the van could have fell apart while I was driving, and if I was on the highway and hit a pothole the van is likely to snap and flip (they didn't know I had literally just bought the van from Pat) and whoever sold me this had to of seen this problem coming long before it got this bad. One of the mechanics was able to poke a hole straight through the crossmember with a screwdriver with relative ease. Throughout the entire process of me purchasing and registering the Van Pat was very easy and timely to contact, literally as soon as I messaged him about the inspection I've never received a text or call back. If he'll sell me a rusted truck that could kill me or my family and then ignore me afterwards what to say he won't do that to you when it's a rusted barrel or faulty trigger mechanism. No one in my family is going purchase anything from this business again and funny enough we spend more than I spent on the van over the course of just a few years and we've been buying here since my grandpa was a young man. Pat when I talked to you you seemed like a trustworthy no nonsense kind of guy and I would like to believe that we have just been caught up in a misunderstanding of some kind, so if you would like to resolve this you have my number.

Nicely organized and clean facility. I went to shoot with my brother. He has a membership here…read more which helps get priority booking for range time. It gets quite busy! I did not know they have an archery range here!! Otherwise, I might have invested in a compound bow years ago! Check-in was easy. I had to fill out a waiver since it was my first time shooting here at this range. You just go to the kiosks to the far left of the check-in counter. Be sure to have your Driver's license/ID with you because you will need it to type in the number when you check into the kiosk for the waiver. Plus you will need to turn it in at the check-in desk while you're in the range. You must have safety glasses and ear protection before entering the range. If you don't own any you can purchase safety glasses for $4. My brother loaned me his ear protection and he brought his own guns and ammo. You can purchase from a variety of targets that are against the wall to the right of the counters. Just state which number to the staff. They will give you a stapler to attach to the board in the range. Holy cow! Gunfire can get EXTREMELY LOUD and jolting in there depending upon who is firing what in there. Some dude was firing a weapon that felt like it shook the range and jolted my body. My brother told me what it was they were firing but I forgot. Me and this teenager laughed and looked at each other because MY GAWD, the sound and pressure of that weapon felt like a sonic boom. LOL. They have staff inside the range to change out the back boards if needed and to sweep up the shells to prevent tripping as well. Restrooms are available as well with many multiple stalls and were very clean.

I cannot recommend this place enough!…read more I came in with a history of gun violence & this visit was to overcome my fear of guns. The check in process was very easy to navigate and the team members were very helpful. Jake helped me get set up at the desk & he assured me that the safety person in the range would be helpful too. It's clear that safety is a top priority here. They require you to wear hearing & eye protection before you enter the range room! I entered the range room & was initially shaken & tearful so I stepped out, wiped my tears & then entered again. John helped me slowly ease up to the bay & walked me through all the safety basics of the gun. He helped me grip it correctly and get a feel of it before the mag was even loaded. He imitated what the kick would feel like. Once I was comfortable with just holding it, he showed me how to load the bullets. I was shaken & nervous between each step but he was calm, reassuring, & patient with me. I eventually loaded the mag & did one shot. From there, my confidence built. Overall, I would recommend this gun range to any & everyone. As a woman who came here alone to face my fears, I feel accomplished & empowered. Huge shoutout to John for his patience, kindness & cute smile. To anyone out there debating:DO IT, even if you do it scared & with tears in your eyes!

Dick's House of Sport has something for just about every kind of athlete, but for us, the real…read moreattraction is the climbing wall. My son and I always have a blast on it. We laugh, challenge each other, and somehow sneak in a pretty serious upper-body and core workout while we're having fun. Customer support if you are shipping is hit or miss, we ordered online and went to pick up only to find it was canceled. They had a similar backpack there and we ended up just getting that one. I also really appreciate the special sports camps they host. We recently participated in one with Coach Dupe from Play Your Position, and that experience actually led us to enroll my son in the program. He's now thriving there, which makes the connection even more meaningful. A big thank-you to Dick's House of Sport for not only offering great athletic gear, but also giving local families a chance to discover some of the awesome sports programs available right here in Virginia Beach.

Stopped into DICK'S Sporting Goods/House of Sport to look for a special gift for a friend's…read morebirthday. We were amazed by the clean, spacious, and thoughtful design of the store. However, this is more than a retail store! It offers merchandise for every sport, and there was an exercise class in session, along with several sets of parents watching their children climb the rock wall that's conveniently situated in the center of the building. Wow! My first thought was, I need to tell my niece about this rock wall opportunity for her adventurous kids! There's a cost for the climb, but a quick glance at the pricing seemed reasonable. Here's a fun place to shop and spend time exploring for the whole family. The staff was very friendly in directing us and our cashier, Curtis was helpful, too. We will definitely add DICK's House of Sport to our list when we need any sporting goods and gifts! The quality and the variety are a great deal.
