Are Shamans a bad matchup for us or what?

Yeah, I'm trying to figure out why I can't deal with shamans... Well I've just been dueling or whatever. I'm only lvl 49(BM spec), so I haven't got all the necessary talents for BM, but whatever... I just don't understand. I don't know if shamans are bad matchups against hunters or what. I feel like I do what I need to do, but I just can't get the job done. In BGs or duels... As of right now, shamans are the only class that I faced on fair ground, and felt like I can't do anything to them.

The shammy can pose an issue, but they not as hard to beat as ya might think. They pose an issue if we get into melee range. Most lvling shammy and Enhancement so windfury is their kill. They take slow 2handers, add windfury and usually take most of your life, if not all of it. This can be countered with effective kiting. Your BM so you need to time your Intimidate just right. You dont have the burst dmg like MM and SV so you need to time everything out.
Keep Viper Sting up too. They can drop totems, heals, or frost shock with no mana.
Also, the right pet with BW will help too. Most hunters use spiders and ravagers for pvp cuz of the stun. Since you can have the core hound yet, serpents make good for the caster type. The poison spit will slow the casting of heals. Or if you want power with BW, I think a raptor would be good. Savage Rend is not only a dot, but increases the raptor dmg or crit chance. Also since the raptor is ferocity, call of the wild will be a nice boost too.
