Unless your hunting padawans who gave up all their skills for a lower CL CH is not the profession for you, our DPS has no chance at all, we have no special attacks, and the jedi doesn't even have to fight your pets first. Further, with pathing and bad A.I. once you tell your pets to attack, their not doing anything else for you until that jedi is either dead or out of range. Even further, most pets can't even keep up with a person running, even FR1 is too fast for almost any pet to keep up.

Dead Jedi 1
Dead Jedi 2
Master Creature Handler/Master Rifleman/4040 Bounty Hunter. These are this week's claimed player marks, both Jedi CL 80s. One was 193K, the other 134K.
It's not easy... pet pathing is broken, pet speed sucks, and it's generally quite difficult to win, but I can pull it off. When they fix the speed and pathing along with the specials, CH will own up in PvP like this.

Hey wait a minute, everyone knows Bryon just E-bayed his jedi, I was even posting on the thread about how all the Bhs were killing him without any fight, and I think you even commented on your kill there :/.
And Vagen was a shipwright before he started doing jedi, he even asked everyone on the server to kindly not hunt him, how could you Ko? 
Ok, moral of the story, I guess you CAN BH jedi with CH in your template, I guess not all jedi can be invulnerable.......

I just started taking Jedi bounties - I like the idea of fighting with my pets, even though it may not be highly effective ina traditional sense - it does give a good element of surprise, and can distract the mark long enough for me to do some damage.

What sort of damage do your pets do in PVP.
Is it like slow and low or high and fast or even low and fast or high and slow?

That screenshot was from my second (and probably final) engagement with Bryon Morbious. He had gone rebel since our first "fight" where he was so easy to defeat I think he was AFK, so I decided to hunt him again for punishment and the hope of a decent fight.
By that point, he had learned how to play, it was actually quite difficult (as should be evident by my health). I nearly lost because my pets decided to play the "we're going to stop fighting" game. A Jedi worth 193K isn't very easy to bring down when they know how to play.And I had a small personal vendetta with Vagen that's now settled. We're cool.
He was also a decently difficult fight, took me a while to bring him down. I had to run him out of Force so he'd quit healing.

My pets are on toolbar 6, I call them then flip to toolbar 1 to fight. No sense in keeping pet call buttons on my primary toolbar when I can use that space for specials and things I need mid-battle.

Against the Jedi with CL 22 pets, not much. They do about 100 points each, so 300 points total every hit. Which is about the same as a single CL 50+ pet. The main advantage is it often confuses the Jedi to deal with 4 targets instead of 1, plus having 21K of extra health and some more damage to deal with is pretty handy.
Against a master lightsaber Jedi my pets are in trouble. A few area attacks will bring them down, which has happened to me once so far.

Im master Bounty hunter master creature handler pistoleer 4040 and some marksman boxes in rifle and carbine to use last 4 skill points. I hunt jedi and am thoroughly enjoying it I Have won some fights and lost some - but have really enjoyed the ch / bh combo. I also love pistols so I added pistoleer for disarm and root - couple this with knockdown and i am more than capable of low to mid level jedi. The Jedi i have fought find the creature element a real shock I have won one bounty (im sure) just from the fact the pets caused the jedi to panic and misread the situation and that alone gave me the edge. Master Jedi are too hard for me to take down though my pets and myself fall quickly to these jedi. But I think I too have to know my limit and with CH not appearing to be very balanced to other higher combat professions at the moment maybe i will see a closer matched battle in the future with these high end jedi when the devs balance creatures a bit more. I live in hope - for now ill stick to enjoying swg and not ponder on the bad things

good answer. mch is not god.......but not as gimped as most people believe. and its true when a jedi sees 3 narglatches coming for them, it throws them off for a bit. that little bit of advantage is sometimes enough.
the improtant thing like the last poster said is its fun.
