Academy Sports + Outdoors

Selection was fantastic. Prices reasonable. The staff at this location friendly knowledgeable and helpful! Especially Cody who went out of his way to answer all questions. His desire to ensure I had a wonderful experience at Academy was commendable!! You just don't find customer like that anymore! Anytime my travels take me near the Brunswick GA area I will go out of my way to stop in and make a purchase. Keep up the good work!

Excellent prices for quality products. You will get way more selection and more for your money here than at Dick's Sporting Goods.

Good variety of outdoor products, I especially enjoyed the gun selection and the great, knowledgeable service we had while perusing the guns. I’m an avid hiker/backpacker & I’ve been on the search for some new gear, hoping I would be able to find it at a brick and mortar store rather than online. Sadly, our Academy did not have much to choose from when it came to backpacking. I’m hoping it is due to the fact that we are very down south and backpacking is not a very big deal but I can not be certain. Other than that, they had some great prices on a lot of their products And I definitely didn’t leave there empty handed!! Great place for present ideas for the avid outdoorsman!!

I shop at academy a lot. So when you walk into the store, you're greeted with a very clean store that is very well merchandised, and knowledgeable staff. Every time I go in I find what I am looking for and more, usually by the suggestion of an employee. The fireams counter employees are always knowledgeable and fun to interact with, and considering I usually hate going into "big box stores" and engaging in small talk, that's pretty good. Aside from the firearms counter, the aparal section is always neat and recoverd, pretty good sales seem like a daily ocourance, and they have most sizes from what I've seen. The shoe section has a very good selection, although small, considering I can find my size, which is 15, I consider that a plus. All in all, Academy puts every other sporting/outdoor store I've been to to shame. I've never had a particularly good experience shopping, considering I don't like to shop, though this store has changed that.

I have been a long time customer of academy sports. I have purchased camping gear and hunting firearms from them since they first opened in Brunswick. Today I was leaving academy sports and was Followed to my vehicle where an employee took pictures of my license plate and Accused me of Shoplifting and demanded I give them back their package. They had no proof of what they accused me of and then when I was asked to remove the package from my waist they realized the package was actually my personal firearm. I then got into my vehicle and decided I would go back and speak to a manager. Opon entering the store the employees were talking openly in front of other customers about me. The manager would not give me the respect of talking in private about how his employees humiliated me. I was embarrassed and treated wrongly for something they had no proof or security footage of. They should really Evaluate how they treat customers.
