Overview
Phase 3 Beast Mastery Hunter for BT/Hyjal. Gronnstalker 4-piece with Cursed Vision of Sargeras. Bristleblitz Striker is the BiS bow; Black Bow of the Betrayer is the strong alternative. Pet DPS is a huge chunk of your meter — keep the pet alive, on the right stance, and buffed.
MD early, keep Steady Shot / Arcane Shot weaving clean, and never let Kill Command sit. Misdirect and Feign Death are your threat tools — use them before the tank loses the boss.
Ranged DPS

Steady Shot
Strengths
Excellent personal DPS with low raid opportunity cost
Misdirect is invaluable for messy Hyjal pulls
Gronnstalker set bonuses are strong and easy to evaluate
Weaknesses
Pet deaths on AoE / cleave bosses erase your damage
Aspect / ammo / quiver management still matters
Competes with every physical DPS for DST and Stormrage Signet
