Horrible service. After waiting for over an hour, and watching a less than competent staff fumble about with my paperwork, I finally left without my rifle. Rarely have I seen a retail store work so hard to dissuade me from giving them money. I have worked in the firearms industry, and understand that purchases can take some time, particularly when NICS is backlogged, but I continued to wait long after my background check was approved. This was pure incompetence and lackluster salesmanship. Not only were the staff completely ignorant regarding firearms, but they moved with the speed and enthusiasm of a woolly mammoth slowly being sucked into a peat bog. Furthermore, there was apparently only one individual in the entire store who could authorize the sale, and she was constantly being pulled away. I am tempted to criticize their sales procedures, but then again, if I were Academy, I wouldnt trust the two individuals they had behind the gun counter to sell Girl Scout cookies, much less firearms. I will drive the additional 30 minutes to purchase my rifle from Cabelas.

I bought a pair of ladies Nike free Tr6 metallic on 12/29 in Houston where I live. They were display and were creased so they gave me 10% discount. I came to visit my sister in law in Denton today and she loved the pair I bought my wife. So I went to Academy store #223 and the had 1 pair that were display,discontinued, no box and creased. I asked manager Janet and she immediately said no. I explained my same purchase 2days ago and discount. She looked at me nasty like I was crazy. Just fyi I also explained Im a Volunteer Firefighter. She then called over manager named Dugan. Same results he declined any discount. Very nasty Management and customer service is horrible. I still made purchase at full price but will never buy from Academy again! Academy Store #223 Raynor Ranch 2600 William University Dr Denton, TX

Bought a fishing shirt here and they left the anti theft device on it. It was a gift for our son who lives in Colorado. Of course, there arent any stores in Colorado, so I live chat with academy and they do not care. Yvonne told me to take it back to store. Now I get to drive 80 miles and then pay to ship it back to Colorado. POOR customer service

I really like Academy, just not this one. They have been in business in this location for a couple of years now but still have not changed their customer service one iota. Ive never seen more rude and completely non-interested employees in any store ever, and I shop at Walmart, so that is really saying something...

used to love this store, but they folded and removed all MSRs from their shelves which made me not want to spend my money with them. EDIT*** MSRs appear to be back on the shelves, will probably return a portion of my business to them now.

Its an Academy. A decent selection of sports wear, including officially licensed gear for the local teams. But the selection isnt as expansive as a place like Dicks, but it is also a bit less expensive.

Great spots store for your simple sporting needs but you are looking for certain things like tennis or a certain type of basketball shoes then I would go to dicks but overall a good sports store

Needed some outdoor sun protection gear and they had it, a pair of shorts was a bit expensive ($40 for Columbia Bermuda shorts) but otherwise they had what I needed and prices seemed alright.

Shopping for youth bicycle helmet. Limited selection in gender and size needed. Also didnt have the bicycle parts I needed. Good selection of bicycles but limited selection of accessories.

Not one sales associate asked if I needed assistance. Plenty walked by and in front of me while I was looking and trying on shoes! This store NEVER has a good selection of shoes!

They have what you need at pretty fair prices. Great selection, nice clean store, and the staff is ok. Sometimes they can be a little blase about helping you though.

Ive seen at least 10 employees and maybe 4 customers in the store and we are all waiting at the one register open. I see a lot of the employees sitting around.

Just like all the other Academys in the metroplex. they have everything I need. This particular one is very close to a pond I fish in Denton.

They are over priced they have just part of what I wanted I thank they need a manager to run the help that dont need to be there
