lochness42 has right, it all depends on the situation.

A Short bow i prefer when the enemies come close and while leveling, but a long bow is better for PvP to get in that first shot at the enemy.

Both Long and Short bows have their Upsides and Downsides and they are both good to use, it all depends on the situation.

Short bows are better for hunters, and Long for Marksman, but it's up to you

Often hunters use short bows when they are hunting because short bows have better attack speed, basicaly you can fire of more attack than with a longbow.

Longbows on the other hand is better when you are taking over forts, a short bow just isn't good enough unless you are really really close to the enemy.

Master them both, you'll need both of them to scrath a barbarian's ass!

If you are leveling with friends use the long bow, u'll hit them first, do more damage and consequentially win more xp.

If you are leveling alone or with a conju by your side use a pet and a short bow, this way you won't miss "ambush" because you are out of range and you'll be closer to "punch" the targets.
