Crossword Genius

Hunts and shoots (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stalks

I believe this is a double definition.

'hunts' is the first definition.
(stalk is a kind of hunt)

'shoots' is the second definition.

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for stalks that I've seen before include "Follows a prey stealthily" , "Follows stealthily with evil intent" , "'Stems, plant supports (6)'" , "Tracks or pursues stealthily" , "They support plants" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
