Hunter played his youth football with
Clydebank, and
Ayr United, where he had an apprenticeship. Hunter signed for Clyde in the summer of 2005, and made his début in the opening league game of the campaign, coming on as a substitute against
Ross County. Hunter was a fringe player in this season, making only 3 starts. Hunter grabbed all his league goals so far whilst playing against
Stranraer, where he scored 4 in a 5–0 win. Hunter was released by
Graham Roberts at the end of the season. However, like
Gary Arbuckle, new manager
Joe Miller came in, and offered Hunter a new deal. Hunter scored Clyde's goal in the
Scottish Challenge Cup Final 2006, though Clyde were defeated on penalties. Hunter was not given a contract extension in summer 2007, and thus, left the club, after making 29 overall appearances, scoring 5 goals, in a two-year spell. In August 2007, Hunter appeared as a trialist for
Albion Rovers, in their opening league game against
Montrose. He scored the winning goal, and was signed on a permanent contract. In October 2007, Hunter scored four goals for the second time in his career, as Albion Rovers won 8–0 in a
Scottish Cup tie against
Burntisland Shipyard. He joined
Montrose in January 2008. He scored an impressive 13 goals in 22 appearances for the Angus side and
Dumbarton enquired about him a year later before finally signing him in July 2009. He was released at the end of the 2009–10 season. Hunter signed for
Junior side
Pollok in the summer of 2010 and moved on to
Kirkintilloch Rob Roy in September 2012. He also played one match as a trialist for former club
Albion Rovers in January 2012. After a period out of the game, Hunter signed for
Forth Wanderers in October 2016, reuniting with his former assistant manager at Montrose,
Jamie McKenzie. ==See also==
