Lets go hang a few cams and see what's in the area doesn't seen as "sporting" just to use a word, as using your woodsman skill to locate and ambush game not because a cam tells you it's there and what time of day or night but because you have seen with your own eyes what is in that area.
Ah! Historical romanticism where everything and everyone in the good old days were better.
I am sure all the folks who support this position also have true native woodsman skills and do not use firearms or even bows and instead use bare hands and run down a deer barefoot in a loincloth. Of course, later came along the guys who used rocks and clubs and the bare handed people said it wasn't sporting. Then came the spear guys and the rock guys said it wasn't sporting...and so on until today when guys are often using sub MOA rifles, expanding ammo, and glass more than 100 times better refined than what Galileo used.
Everybody tends to make the best use of technology that they can and can appreciate. The woodsmen in the good old days were using the best technology they had. You can darn sure bet that if they had a way to use cameras, they would have. After all, most of them were subsistence hunting and not sport hunting.
I never really thought it "sporting" to be using a rifle. It isn't like the deer or other creature has any real defense against an incoming bullet fired at over 2000 fps, often from a threat that they can't see and from a distance where the threat may not even be considered a threat. If the idea is to be sporting, the one should attack the animal on a level at which the animal has a chance to defeat the attack instead of sniping it where then animal does not, but nobody really wants to do that.
