Hunt came through the youth ranks at Queens Park Rangers,[1] and made his professional debut in December 1964 in the 3-1 victory against Bristol Rovers.[2] He was a member of the 1966–67 side that won both the Third Division Championship and the League Cup; his pass and subsequent collision with the goalkeeper set up the third and winning goal for Mark Lazarus as QPR defeated West Bromwich Albion 3–2 at Wembley Stadium.[3][4]
