My experience with short bows is that it's a waste of time wielding them.
You don't seem to get much better hitting than by simply throwing arrows
while wielding a mace.  If your pack's getting full, however, you can
always throw a short bow.  It seems to do about as much damage as an arrow.
Useful for doing away with E's from a distance, etc.
