When I about 7yrs old we used the term "driver" when we hunted in large groups. The "drivers" lined up and spread out then all walked in the same direction pushing the deer to "standers" positioned all around in strategic areas where deer were known to try to escape. They would yell out things to put up deer like "YOOOOOO BUCK!" or WHHOOOOOP!".
