I keep getting ganked by DKs. Has anyone figured out a way to gank them?

Yeah, seriously... DKs are Easy kills for Hunters... only ones that consistently give me trouble are Frost specs, mainly cause they cut out our ability to Kite. Best way to tackle a DK is to Wing clip or Frost trap as soon as possible and like Leth said, as soon as they Deathgrip you, hit Disengage. That totally #$%^es them off. Once you have that much down, just kite them around and use your Spec to your advantage.
For a BM hunter it's easy, just pop off Kill Command and Bestial Wrath and you're set. Here an Arcane Shot, there an Arcane shot... and they are gone before you know it... BTW don't forget to Tea Bag.

Uuuh i only remember killing them once and it involved popping everything as survival, i believed it went something like...
(1 = me, 2 = DK)
1. explosive shot
2. Chains of ice/melee range
1. master's call/disengage
2. death grip (hate this one)
1. deterrence/frost trap
2. casts deathcoil/icy touch
1. kite until dead
2. watches as i die from his DoT's
1. dies -_-;
I think the big clue is to blow their death grip ASAP and dispel their chains of ice which they can spam alot other than that its pretty easy, oh and watch out for their ghouls though they can die easily if they're not looking.

I'm a level 51 Beast Master Hunter. At around level 61 in Hellfire a level 63 Blood Elf Death Knight kept on kicking my butt. Had a level 60 DK come and help me. We still couldn't beat him.
There was a level 60 horde druid in the area too. I easily burned him down. But the BEDK took out the Draenai DK then I still didn't know what to do.
Disengage is the key. Now I can't wait to try it out.

When they use death grip on you, drop an explosive trap. hit disengage, fire aimed while flying back, hit BW, arcane, kill command. By then, it's just about Kill shot time. Dk's are easy kills.

Aspect of the Monkey & with The Glyph for Aspect of the Monkey has help me to hang in there longer. When the speed bonus kicks in after a dodge I run right toward and go pass the DK, turn and fire. When their's a mob sometimes they forget about me after I run by.

If they've got the ghoul ability, I run to their corpse and freeze trap them. That give's me 30 sec to recover, eating, or bandage.
While you make some decent points, this line makes me question the validity of your suggested scenario. Crowd control caps at 10 seconds against PvP player targets, which includes freeze traps. Additionally, you don't touch on how a MM hunter can deal with
Chains of Ice
, which tends to be the real killer for non-BM hunters.
While
Master's Call
is handy for dealing with the first Chains that hits you, has anyone come up with a reliable way of dealing with following ones? Trinkets work, but if the DK has any Death Runes, they can just freeze you again. On the same note, since Chains are technically a snare and not a real root, they have no diminishing returns.
I'm interested to know if the new Deterrence is going to allow us to "deflect" Chains, as they do not have a damage component. Has anyone had an opportunity to test this on the test servers yet, by chance?

i assume you meant new Deterrence, however that would be nice to deflect Chains.
Oops, good catch, fixed that. Yes, that is what I meant.
