LAFOLLETTE, TN (WLAF) – Deer season is around the bend, and there’s no better time to head to The Sport Shop for all your hunting, fishing and target shooting needs. 

Whether you need a new gun or need that old gun repaired, The Sport Shop has you covered. From Black powder guns and accessories, to bows, bow repair, tree stands, camouflage clothes, boots and more; the Sports Shop has whatever you need to get you out in the woods to bag that buck or out in the boat to land that fish. Rods, reels, lures, live bait, and just about all the fishing accessories you could imagine can be found right in LaFollette.

The Sport Shop also carries a large line of firearms and target shooting accessories, as well gun safes in stock.

Owned and operated by Ronnie and Susie Carroll, the business started in downtown LaFollette near Kash and Karry Building Supply about 36 years ago. After being located there for a little more than a year, the business moved to its current location in the Woodson’s Shopping Center (former IGA location). Over the past 30 plus years, the shop has expanded twice in order to accommodate more merchandise.

“The Lord has certainly been good to us and blessed us,” Susie Carroll said. 

Turkey, duck, squirrel and deer calls, as well as a large variety of shooting accessories are all available at The Sport Shop.

“We specialize in taking care of our customers and their hunting and fishing needs, “Carroll said.

With a large selection of rifles, pistols, shotguns, bows, rods, reels, knives and much more, The Sport Shop is the perfect place to get that special outdoors person something for Christmas.

The Sport Shop is located at 1203 Jacksboro Pike next to the former IGA location in LaFollette. For more information, call 423-562-0035.  (WLAF NEWS PUBLISHED – 09/17/2021-6AM)
