IMO it is NOT up to the individual to define hunting. Mr Webster and the game laws do that. Otherwise I could go out tonight, sit at the edge of a cornfield, camo’d up, bow, arrow nocked, whole 9 yards. If a Game Warden came up to me, I’d just say that I WASN’T hunting.

If you can say you are hunting when in fact you are sitting here typing, then you should be able to say you are waiting for a bus while you are sitting in your treestand.
