i have been working like heck trying to get my new PVP gear. i think everything is on the right track but i wanted to check with you the experts. 🙂 i cannot for the life of me find the stat priorities for bm pvp in the forums but i know i have seen them. so if you get a moment and can take a look at my gear and let me know what i am missing. Basically i want to tweak every little bit i can for arena's. I only use a spirit beast as a pet. so any help you give me i will appreciate alot.

ohh as a side note my son and his girlfriend went and tamed dethilac (spelling??) for me last night. 🙂
You're looking pretty good, but here are my suggestions…
- Throw a weapon chain on your 2H instead of the 130 agility. Enduring full-duration disarms can be a game changer.
- Gem agility/crit or agility/resil in your yellow sockets. You definitely want the socket bonus in your PvP gear – especially if it's more resil.
- Get a speed enchant on your boots — either stam/speed or agil/speed if you can afford it.
- Get the on-use burst trinket and macro it with Bestial Wrath. The proc trinket isn't bad at all, but the on-use one has a nice synergy with bestial wrath and allows for maximum bursting power.
- Throw Flintlocke's Woodchucker on your ranged wep.
- In terms of hit cap… try and get as close to 5% without going under. Reforge any unneeded hit into crit.
- You want agility, crit and resilience for PvP.
Good luck and have some fun! 🙂

"Here endeth the lesson." 
Garwulf thank you for your help. I printed the information out got all ready to make the changes when i got home from work. and.........I started up my computer and my 24" monitor is now dead. :(. so i tried another monitor and now i have some type of boot error is going on. /cry so hopefully i will get the issues fixed and then i will implement every suggestion you have made.
so thank you for all your help.

Good luck dealing with your computer troubles.
Let me know if any of my advice makes a difference for ya. 🙂
One other thing… I noticed most of your Spirit Beasts had either Dash or Boar's Speed — I'd be sure to talent your main PvP SB with both. Speed kills.
Personally, I like this build: http://www.wowhead.com/petcalc.....00ssz0hoRb
Another good build is this: http://www.wowhead.com/petcalc.....00skd0hoRb (w/ 2/2 Lionhearted)

Just wanted to let you know that the improvements seem to be helping alot. i even got a good job from my son (and that is saying alot) during our three's team matches. i seem to be putting out more damage than i did before. so thank you for all your help. the on use trinket helps alot when i get told to burn the hell out of someone and i get to watch thier heath drop considerably faster. so i thank you and my team thanks you. the best thing with having all the resil (3865) i actually live longer which for me is saying alot. now if i could only fiqure out a way of getting out of the stun stun stun stun and not dying it would be awsome lol. i am using a few of the macro's that i have seen on this site to help also. unfortunately i am part clicker and part keybindings. if i can retrain my self to be all keybindings it will be great. unfortunately i have to think about what i am doing rather than it being instinctual. but who knows after three more years i may get there lol.
thanks again

Good to know the tips made a difference. 🙂
Switching to keybinds will probably be a struggle for a little while, but just keep at it. Eventually it will be second nature and your play will improve greatly.
Stunlocks are definitely a pain, but after awhile you'll start to get a better idea as to which of your 'escape' abilities you should use and when. Well timed CC is the name of the game when it comes to arena. Eventually you'll start to predict it and know which CC to endure and which to trinket or TBW out of.
1. As a hunter, it is counter-productive to gem resilience.
You are the squishyest thing out there, (When everyone is in the same gear) and you are designed around not taking damage as opposed to mitigating it.
So, most of the socket bonuses should be ignored and just go for pure agi.
1. B. Get the helmet enchant with haste instead of resilience.
2. Don't get a weapon chain.
Get TWO polearms, and put a weapon chain on one, and a 130 agi enchant on the other. Swap it to the chain if you fight a class that can disarm you.
3. Spell pen
Don't pair up the cloak enchant with 3 50 pen gems, instead pair up the cloak with 2 50s, and one stam/pen green gem. The extra points in pen are wasted, as they won't have resistances that high. Get free stamina.
4. Reforge EVERYTHING
1.Mastery sucks for a hunter, badly.
2.You will never have enough haste in PvP gear for it to be noticeable.
Put it to hit, until capped, then everything to crit.
5. Enchants
1. Gloves. Old +20 agi enchant is better than anything current. GG blizzard.
2. Get attack power/crit leg enchant
