Hunting is not easy at all. You almost always have to take an entire day to get one or maybe two kills. Plus you have to cover your scent, and stay completely silent and unmoving that entire time? It's much harder then you're thinking.
Cavemen didn't kill animals with their barehands either really, all the tastey ones run too fast. They threw spears or used an atlatl mostly.
You also want these people taking kills on deer and such, they can overpopulate rather easily and wreak havoc, hunting seasons are a good way of keeping everything in line.
