Well said Hoppdoc,
As a matter of fact, one could argue that, generally speaking, the farther away you shoot, the less "hunting" you are doing and the more it becomes "shooting".
Ishi, the last "wild" american-indian, hunted at very close range and he was a true "hunter". One of my friend shoots deer at 1/2 mile and there is virtually no hunting involved. It is almost all "shooting".
Both are enjoyable and definitely require the appropriate skills and techniques.
My view is that a machine could do (and in the military does) the shooting part, but could never do the "hunting". Therefore, I think the latter is a lot more interesting piece of the action.
