Actually, the bows are in cheat mode right now They have no draw so you can sub-machine gun a bow. They seem to have a tad bit less power, but this tasty creeper meat i'm eating right now wouldn't be here if there weren't bows.

This. Once 1.8 comes out, you'll have to draw back the bow and release it to get maximum damage (which is stronger then default damage you deal right now I believe), but the delay is there.
they can shoot very fast however if you do shoot fast the arrows bounce off because the mobs are immune to damage for a second after recieving damage. But 5 arrows will kill a creeper.
good for arena fights seeing as how only the host has the advantage in sword fights and in local games you are evenly matched, its almost like a longer griffball fight
but the bow requires some shooting and leading skill, it is also good for killing mobs at a distance if you haven't figured out the zombie's range and how its slightly shorter than yours
They'll be very useful in 1.8. You'll be able to charge them up, shooting farther and dealing more damage. All hostile mobs will take 2 arrows or less to kill.
It will get nerfed in version 1.0, taking 3 arrows instead. Endermen will also dodge arrows.(They don't do this in 1.8)
Well, you can get close to a zombie/spider and have a chance of them hitting you or, kill them from a safe distance. Nevermind bows are useless. save your string for fishing poles.
