I have a feeling about something. Oh, what is it, Becca? What kind of feeling? Well, I have a hunch that we'll have to do some extra work today. And what makes you think that? Well, the last time we had such a big project coming up, we had to produce a lot more programs very quickly.

So it's like an intuition you have about something, when you think something is true, even if you can't explain why. Yes, we can have a hunch, follow a hunch or act on a hunch. It's not so much that we try to prove our hunch is true, but we go along with it. It inspires our action. It's also used as a singular noun.
