if you go out and track an animal and get close enough to kill it with a simple bow or go all crazy and do it tarzan style with a knife in your loin cloth (LOL nobody has the balls to do that)...then we are getting to a more evenly matched battle and that would demonstrate true sport and talent.
take the technology and all the deceit out of the equation and we have a legit craft called "Hunting" to be proud of.

I am a gun owner but tried dove hunting for the first time on Saturday morning. Let's just say that shooting clay pigeons does not prepare you much for doves that seem to fly at 675mph. My buddies shot their limit (10) pretty quick and all I did was waste shells and shoot the air. I would go again as it is fairly entertaining but I am not much of a bird eater so I don't mind that I can't hit anything.

And shoving a electric ram rod up a cows ass differs from dropping Bambi with a well placed round how? Or like I said before having Bambi ripped to shreds by another animal can't be fun for Bambi can it?
We all have our own opinions but dead is dead don't matter how you get there.
What cracks me up are the people who are anti-hunting and will tell you that all day long over a plate of veal or chicken. See how they are killed if you really want to convert to vegan
Where we hunt deer, you stalk and climb up a mountain. No deer stand , no bait no nothing. You scan the mountain, if your lucky you spot Bambi you take a long a$$ shot unless we are bow hunting. You then have to drag Bambi up or down the mountain and gut it. Good way to loose a crap load of weight when all is said and done.
No worries either way

More true than some dude baiting and rubbing a tree then climbing into a blind or treestand and waiting for the tricked prey to just walk right up to you.
if the powers that be did not want us to eat animals they would not have made them out of meat. I love to eat meat and I know exactly how it gets to my plate. I am eating potted meat out of the can as I type this......seriously.
We as a society have transcended the need to hunt. we raise our food. that being the case, why would a "hunter" want to make it as easy as possible to bag some prey? Unless you are doing it as your staple daily food source, using all these tricks and tech takes the craft, skill and fun out of it. Why do something challenging when you remove all the challenge?
Population control is different and I will make concessions in that case, but don't call that hunting. Call that a chore or service.
My problem with modern "hunting" is that there is no skill involved (for most of them). Its easy to find a tree, rub some scent on it, clack a couple of antlers together and drink beer while you wait for a 10 pointer to walk up and wonder where all the action is.

I know. It's like, why can't we
hunt something cool like a hawk, or an eagle, or something
with some talons?
That'd be awesome. You mean, something
like big game even like a gorilla...
Yeah. Gorilla!
- Or rhinoceros...
- Rhino!
Or a ****ing human being? That'll get you jacked up.
That's a little heavy.
I mean, like... you're hunting a human being right now, the most dangerous game.
Like a worthy adversary.
Not a human being that's armed...
Oh, if he wasn't armed.
...but a clever... a clever human being
who knows the jungle, or the woods.
Or like a bad guy.
