The difference between deer and fish is HUGE. I won't even get into the obvious water/land issue. Let's talk about cognitive ability. Brain the size of a peanut, or brain the size ofa baseball.... hmmm.... It's a no-brainer... HAHA(man that was cheesy)....

The differences between hunting and fishing go more into the depths of perception and intent. Unless you want to be legalistic and start arguing definitions then it could become about techniques. And the problem with this "competition" has less to do with the tranquelizer dart(although it is a big con on the pro/con list), and more to do with the percepted reality of what is actually happening, and what you are doing it to. There is a huge difference in the perception of the whitetail and of the Largemouth bass or bill fish.

Hunting is about not only killing and eating, but about comuning with nature, and being out there just God, your weapon, you and sometimes your buddies or family, and God willing a deer will join you for supper.(hehe) It's about sunsets, and sunrises, frost on the ground, and the breeze on your face. We're on this earth as not only stewards of the other life on it, but as partakers as well. Last I checked money didn't have much of a place in nature. Money doesn't feed a pack of wolves.This whole sham of a "competition" is a thinly veiled perversion of our beloved heritage for the sake of greed.

Regardless of what modern pro sports and their multi-million dollar contractssay, true Competition has nothing to do with the prize won, but the pleasure of competing. How many of us play through grouling softball tournements. Do we do it for the $5 trophy waiting for us at the end? Does the guy in camp who shoots the biggest buck get hoisted on teh shoulders of his campmates? Is there abig checkwaiting for me if I beat my best friend at a video game?
