Judging by the common theme in most posts I would say that the deciding factor in most people's minds about the difference between "hunting" and "shooting" is the amount of challenge to the hunter involved.
Agreed?
No, I would never agree to a blanket statement like that!
So.. what.. I do my scouting and such and place my stand. Opening morning a 160 classbuck comes by, I shoot it, and in 3 minutes I'm done.
Not much effort..is the "hunt" then diminished to "shooting"? By your (or the concensus') opinion?
