Readers' Choices for Sporting Goods

Bike shops, hunting stores and a spot for endurance sports prove the most popular in Cobb, Cherokee, Bartow, Douglas and Paulding counties.

We tried more of a regional approach with Readers’ Choice this past week as we asked you to pick your favorite store for sporting goods. Here are the winners from Cherokee, Cobb, Bartow, Paulding and Douglas counties: Readers’ Choice reloads at 5 a.m. Monday when we ask you to pick your favorite spot for outdoor dining.

Readers Choose PTS Sports

Patch users in western Cobb County and eastern Paulding County go the distance for this seller of endurance sporting goods.

Endurance sports specialty store PTS Sports in downtown Acworth outlasted all comers this past week when we asked Patch users in Kennesaw, Acworth, West Cobb and Dallas-Hiram to pick their favorite place to buy sporting goods. The contest was close, however, as people showed some love for local outlets of two big chains, Dick's Sporting Goods in Kennesaw and The Sports Authority in Hiram. Congratulations to PTS Sports. Our next Readers' Choice contest will ask you for your favorite local restaurant when you want to dine outside. The voting in West Cobb Patch will be open from 5 a.m. Monday to 9 a.m. Friday.

This week's Readers' Choice survey builds on that lesson and asks a simple question: Where is your favorite store to buy sporting goods? To make the game a little more fun, we're going to pick one winner for Acworth Patch, Kennesaw Patch, West Cobb Patch and Dallas-Hiram Patch combined, so you're voting not only for your favorite store, but also for town pride.

If your own Patch didn't pick a winner, check out the popular businesses nearby.

Most of the Readers' Choice surveys in Patches north and west of Atlanta got few votes; four of them got no votes at all. Here are the results for Patches in Cobb, Cherokee, Bartow, Paulding and Douglas counties: We'll be back Monday at 5 a.m. with what we hope will be a more interesting Readers' Choice topic: your favorite place to buy sporting goods.
