Huntsman

Notable American surname

A huntsman is a person who hunts, especially one who manages hounds during a fox hunt.

The term carries traditional, somewhat aristocratic connotations—you're more likely to encounter it in British foxhunting contexts than describing someone with a rifle in the woods.

A huntsman spider is a large, fast-moving spider found in warm climates, named for its active hunting rather than web-building.
