What is hunt in y’all’s opinion?

To me that's an easy question. Hunt is a dogs natural inclination to find game, and how much hunt they have is how badly they want to find game, simple as that to me. It can be used in different ways.

Range and hunt get confused a lot, dog A may have less range then dog B, but dog A can still have more hunt then dog B. Hunt is in them genetically and that is why it is a natural inclination and not a trained behavior. One of my mentors would always say you're not training them to hunt, you are training them what you don't want them to hunt.
