During a Thursday conference call, Stack discussed the retailer’s August decision to remove all hunting equipment and products from 10 stores where they were underperforming.
In its place, Dick’s Sporting Goods put an assortment of items in categories like baseball, soccer, outerwear, and licensed products.
“Though it’s too early to discuss performance, we’re optimistic these changes will better serve the athletes in these communities,” Stack said during the call. “We’ll have to wait and see how the 10-store test does.”
Dick’s made headlines in the wake of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School massacre on Feb. 14 in Parkland, Florida, in which a mass killer took the lives of 17 people, and injured many more.
