Do you consider hunting a sport?

[Mr Cool]

Just wondering what your opinion is on it. I do not consider it a sport, not b/c I am against killing animals b/c I am not I eat meat 4 times a day I just dont consider it a sport or see whats to boast about when you have a high powered rifle and your sitting in a tree... that is just my take on it.

I don't consider it a sport... In sports you should be active most of the time. In hunting you are basically sitting in a tree stand for 6 hours...

Not true, depends on what kinda hunting your doing..

Hunting is not a sport. It isn't very athletic... and it's cruel to do it for fun or to compete. (if you're going to eat what you kill, it is not quite as bad)

sports and athleticism doesn't always go together lol

but hunting isn't really a sport - more of an activity

in Dick Cheney's Case - hunting is the time you can shoot a guy in the face and get away with it

I don't hunt, I don't like the idea of killing things for enjoyment.
However, I do consider it a sport.
It takes skill, may be sitting in a tree most of the time, but it IS a sport.
Just cause you sit for a while doesn't make it not a sport, look at professional gaming. Think they get some exercise? No, but it is a sport.

I didn't even know Professional gaming was a sport. I always considered it as an activity like hunting.

Nope, it's a sport.
Dominoes is also a sport, saw it on ESPN 2
Ping pong, or Killerspin on ESPN is a sport

I can understand ping pong, but not the others. Hmmm that's interesting.

You eat meat 4 times a day? I'm trying to figure out a way you could reasonably do that and survive more than 3 months. I can't.
