Shoot for a hunter's prize (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pot

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'shoot' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in other clues)

'hunter's prize' is the second definition.
'pot' can be an answer for 'prize' (as in a jackpot). I'm unsure of the 'hunter's' bit.

'for a' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pot that I've seen before include "Kitchen utensil or slang cannabis" , "Cannabis - container - beer belly" , "Jar, cannabis" , "Somewhere to go" , "Container for 23" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
