To me hunting is, tracking, finding rubs, finding scrapes, finding funnels, beddingareas, but if it makes anyone feel like hunting out of a box any better, it's thier prerogative andIMO they did not work for it.
Reb I will have to take issue with part of what you said my friend. I have hunted Canada a couple of times and even though I did not scout the area ..nor did I have to track anything .. however I did have to "set the box" for 11 hours a day ..day after dayin sub 20% weather over looking a 400 yard cutover ...now there was no guide to sit with me and hold my hand so it was up to me to try and stay focused ..it was up to me not to snooze ...and when I would spot a deer which was not often I had to make up my own mind if it was a "shooter" ...and then it was up to ME to make the shot! I do however agree that some of these shows were the guide sits in the box with you while buck after buck comes to the sound of the feeder and he pics out the one for you to shoot aint much hunting ..IMHO.
