Absolutely 100%!!
I have been producing an outdoors TV show now for 10 years now and without a doubt hunting is a sport. You totally need to know your opponent (or game) and you need to study them properly. The skill involved in making a lethal quick killing shot also takes a certain skill and studying of the particular game you are after..... and let's not forget about the physical shape you need to be in for some hunts. ANY mountain hunt can test the best of the fittest (I can no longer do hard mountain hunts due to age and physical limits.Once an animal is down you now need the skills to skin, gut, butcher and use all the meat. Now let's talk about game retrieval. Pulling the trigger is the EASY part you need to get that animal from the spot it is home...... YES in my mind hunting is a sport, although it is not a conventional sport where you are playing for points (or poker chips) against another team. It is more like a game of golf where you are trying to beat your own best.
GREAT question. Thanks for posting!!

I've practiced a lot of sport fishing with artificial baits, in catch and release mode, but today I don't fish anymore.Can fishing and hunting be considered a sport?
I love fishing. Unfortunately, I don't have the opportunity to go fishing often, but at least once or twice a month, my friends and I go to our favorite places. For me, fishing is a wonderful recreation and an interesting pastime.Today I went to the river, found two beaver dens

Killing an animal for your consumption and that of your family, I think it's even acceptable, because this comes from caveman.
Now to say that hunting is a sport, killing a defenseless animal for mere pleasure, just to show the trophy to friends or hang it on a wall, we cannot call it a sport.
