Throw and hide (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pelt

I believe this is a double definition.

'throw' is the first definition.
(pelting is a kind of throwing)

'hide' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for pelt that I've seen before include "Run fast - hide - pepper" , "Skin, hide" , "fall hard" , "Throw - animal skin" , "Run fast - rain hard" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express and The Mirror.
