Everyone defines it differently but I do believe there are those who go out just to shoot a deer vs. those who go out and hunt a specific deer and there is a difference in my definition. For instance, many years ago I would have considered myself a "real" trapper. This year I"m going to do a little trapping but I certainly would say that I am now more so going to do some trapping but compared to "real" trappers (like Yaz, 76, Gilley, Bean, HH and others) I am certainly not a "real" trapper. And honestly, I wouldn't care or be offended if anyone were to suggest I wasn't a "real" trapper because I don't but in the time, effort or analytics that others do.
