New Cabela's in S. Dak.

[M.T. Pockets]

I enjoy a visit to Cabelas as much as anybody, but for a trip to go buy stuff I prefer Sportsman's Warehouse. I can find stuff easier, the ailes have more room and I've never had to wait in line a half hour like I have at Cabela's.

The Sportsman's Warehouse in Sioux Falls that you mention Nulle is the place I usually load up on ammunition & annual supplies.

The Scheel's store in Sioux Falls is impressive too, but I don't like working my way around the store to the outdoor dept. upstairs. Although it is worth the trip there to see the life sized elk mount upstairs.

The Cabalas in Mitchell is nice and not as crowded as the others. I stopped there a couple years ago on the same trip I visited the Sheep Museum in Dubois, WY and the sheep display at Cabelas was far more impressive.

Apparently Sportsman's Warehouse likes to be near a large population center since their marketing style isn't to be an impressive store. Just a practical place to buy stuff. They aren't going to get people driving there special just to see the place like Cabela's does, but they don't have the overhead either. Whatever works, I like both places.
