cazadores


Explanation:
Game here probably refers to "caza" (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big-game_hunter), so "game hunters" might just be "cazadores " in Spanish....

also see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_(food) for a description of "game" in this context (o sea, en este contexto, puede que la palabra "game" hace referencia al animal cazado, no al aspecto "deportivo" de la caza....)

agree  Mar Brotons: According to my Oxford dic. "Game: wild mammals or birds hunted for sport or food", so we cannot tell if they are "deportivo" or not.
