I'm trying to learn here, not really concerned if cabelas or bass pro or Wal-Mart or academy. More of why if on a site like PB would someone not want to search advertisers from PB? vs. buying at a store. I understand the convenience of it being there, thanks for letting me know. I know when doing my "shopping" I now like to find the source on the internet compare price and who they are then way my options. If buying a cheap feeder then makes more sense just to buy it. If TX Hunter, etc at $700 I would try to save a few bucks or know I bought from a source that will go to bad if I had an issue. George your right academy might be less $ but even less $ from someone here possibly. If so PB member saves money and support s someone who comes on here and gives away free advice. Again no complaining just asking the question. I think Bob would appreciate it also. Thanks again. Good to be back in town after 4 day shocking trip.
