I'm a little skeptical, because hunting can be extremely boring.
An ADHD hunter would be the guy who gets bored, jumps out of the hiding spot to examine a neat rock, and scares off the approaching deer.

For what it's worth, I never hop out to examine rocks. Some people with ADHD might suffer from impulsive distracted behavior like that, but certainly not all.
And that's exactly the way early humans hunted. The method is called persistence hunting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persistence_hunting
Humans run slowly, but human bodies can dissipate heat very efficiently through sweating, and this makes humans good long-distance runners. AFAIK, humans can outrun most other animal species.
So if I understand it correctly, the hunting method involves scaring your prey, running for a while(yay hyperactivity), using your big brain to figure out where the prey went and running again for a while. Rinse and repeat for many hours, until the prey literally dies from exhaustion.
I imagine persistence hunting as a series of puzzles while you literally can see your reward - no delayed gratification involved.
