We don't really know, but it's likely not a reason they would have been hunted. Saber toothed cats would have competed with humans of the time, would have been difficult to kill, offered less than palatable meat. But modern humans have hunted big cats in Asia, Africa, the Americas, and Europe (the European lion was hunted to extinction before the advent of firearms) with little more than nets and bladed weapons for millennia.
Saber toothed cats and Neanderthals did live in the same place and at the same time. Therefor, it is possible that Neanderthals hunted saber-toothed cats, and I am quite certain that, despite the risk of such an endeavor, they were capable of it. However, I am not aware of any evidence that Neanderthals actually hunted saber-toothed cats.
