Great store! I prefer Academy over some of the other larger sporting goods stores. They have lower prices on guns compared to the local big fish store. On our last visit, an employee named Zach was super helpful. He helped my wife find her show size in the style she was looking for. At checkout, our cashier helped us get a discount too! Very cool!

We purchased a $799.99 60 inch goal .. Got home an next morning begin installing base/pole in concrete.. Once set we started to install an found out they gave us 72 inch goal post,so none of the 60 inch goal parts will fit.. I called the store talked to manager on duty, Joshua, explained everything an he said bring back what you can an we will make it right for you... Gave us the 72 inch goal an 50 bucks back for time an gas..Let me say this, I drove to that store 40 minutes away, which Hammond store is 10 minutes from my house because of how nice an friendly this Academy is.. Even the employees very respectful an apologized for everything..You think your local Walmart wouldve done that,give you 50 bucks back an upgrade u to a $2000 dollar goal.. Thanks again Academy sports on Juban...

I shopped at two Walmarts plus Cabelas for a pistol style pellet gun for the extremely aggressive eight raccoons trying to get in my door for cat food. Academy had what I needed at an acceptable price. Robert and another nice lady in the gun department were very helpful answering questions regarding my needs for this varmint control to protect my pets.

I love shopping at Academy. Great staff and management. Take the ride out to Juban Crossing just off the interstate in Walker.

I went into the store looking for a pair of shoes that the website said were in stock. 30 minutes of wandering around the shoe department and having asked all three employees in the department for help to answers of “we don’t have time to help you “ and I’m leaving empty handed. If your store can’t do better than this I’ll bring my business to your closest competitor cause you don’t deserve my business.

Normally, Academy stores are well maintained and organized. Today, I went to the one in Denham Springs and found that the inventory listed as “available for store pickup” online was not available at the actual store. When I did decide to buy some tables, the associate nearby told me he would get a cart to wheel them to the front. I waited 10 minutes and he did not return, so I carried the large tables to the front of the store by hand only to find that none of the checkout lanes were occupied. I went to customer service and only then did they call someone to help with the growing line at the checkout. Now I’m tired, frustrated and still don’t have all the items I needed from them.

Found what I needed but was a little distracted by the anti 😷 customers. Even though signs are posted. The store entrance always looks like it needs to be swept and the restrooms werent that clean. Toilet tissue needs to be restocked. This location is just not kept as clean as the rest. Ive been in two within the last week looking for shorts.. The cashier that checked me out was nice.

A good academy. I’ve never really had any problems, except finding bullet, but that’s not really an Academy problem. Only a little troublesome to find associates, but clean and well stocked.

The worst academy sports store I’ve ever been in! Products scattered on the floor in every department. No price tags on many items and the scanners on the isles for so called convenience do not work. Can’t find any employees. Only one person at the register and one at customer service. Many other people standing in line.

I went in for a long drench rain coat and found plenty👍 but the cost was like $14.99 which surprised me bc I was looking to pay round 70 bucks. The ride was worth it🍷👍

Review №22

Theyve got some great sales on clothes right now, but their ammo and firearm stock is kind of low, thats everywhere though. I find some of their stores carry more than others. I scored some 5.56 and 9mm the last two times I was there, so I got lucky! The two box minimum rule sucks though and there AR parts are lacking right now, again, just like everyone else.

Not sure exactly what happened to this academy sports but customer service has declined rapidly and drastically to the point where I will not go back in that store to try and spend my money the way I was talked to today ensures I will never go back in that store

Great place to find what you are looking for for your outdoor gatherings. At least it was until Covid hit, and then ammo shortages. But still, you can find most everything you need

Hello I will start out good things about your store it is very nice organized priced lots to choose from . BUT (us humans can be big babies if we have to wait 10 minutes to check out ) when I went to check out with 2 pair of Nike shoes and 2 pair of $14 socks I saw about 10 people and couples waiting in one line to check out . I left my shops up front and left the store mad. no big deal I guess as I am heading to Rouses I see Carnival Shoes . So I go in and find the same shoes at the same price . unfortunately they were out of my size 11.5 but they will ship the 2 pair of shoes to my house for free .

Went there to pick up an item I had paid for a few days ago. The item was not at the pick up desk so they had to bring it up from the back, the wait time was not very long, and very easy to get going. The store was very busy but we made it through the line with our other purchase in no time. Overall good experience.

25% off signs alll over the book sacks, but when went to check out, rang up regular price. I asked the lady about the 25% off and she says, well it rang up regular price. Uhh yea I see that.. the shelves say 25% off. She calls someone to check it out... apparently that brand was excluded from the 25% off...THEN DONT PUT 25% SIGNS ON THE DAMN SHELVES!! Who sees fine print when all you can see it a BIG BOLD 25% OFF!?!?

Reviewing based on the store, not their new implemented silly gun rules.The skinny is, they cant sell you an angry black rifle, but theyll gladly sell you a shotgun and 50 rounds of buckshot with a bayonet lug.Store was nice and very empty. I was able to lay in one of the floor model tents without my wife leaving me as I made bear noises.

I actually came here to get my daughters school uniforms. I found everything I needed at great prices. The store was neat & clean. So was the fitting rooms. Everyone was pleasant & helpful from the moment I walked in, to the fitting room, to check out, all the way back out the door. It was a good experience.

A very long wait (25 minutes) to meet with a representative to see specialty equipment. Knowledgeable and friendly staff once I was greeted. 3 reps were available and customers were steady. The numbered ticket system was not being used. Id made made eye contact with a rep within 5 minutes and waited very patiently while a rep wrapped up with another customer. There was no other acknowledgement.
