While this is true that you never said "ban guns"... It did seem implied at the time of your first post given that you said you view hunting with a gun to be cheating. I do understand at this point that that is not what you meant.
I also understand why MJK would find this so humourous because where he lives and hunts... I mean, I've never been there but from what I understand there is little to no cover. If you tried hunting with a bow or crossbow (maximum effective range of about 40-60 yards), it would be incredibly hard to even ever get an opportunity at something. Up there, long range is the norm. It may be one of several reasons he is using a .243 as well, as that calibre is quite flat-shooting out to about 400 yards, a very nice gun for longer shots (I have one myself as well as a .30-06).
