This "Remote Hunting" thing...

Jeff at Alphecca posts his opinion on this (proposed) activity. For what it's worth (not much, probably), I'm against it as well. Hunting isn't a game. You are going to take an animal's life. You need to be there to see it in all its wild glory before you touch the trigger. You need to be there to follow its blood trail in case your shot goes slightly amiss. You need to be there to find it fallen, eyes glazed, tongue distended. You need to be there to gut it and bleed it and throw it in the back of the truck. You need to be there to quarter it and butcher it properly.

If you can't do that, you don't deserve to eat it. If you don't plan on eating it, you don't have any business killing it in the first place. So there.
