i managed to make a new bow for haldir one that better resembles the elven bow, and i animated the string by linking it to the firearrowtip bone, but for some odd reason when the sword is out, the arrow is floating in the middle of nowhere and the string is attached lol look:

With bow:

With sword:

I think it has something to do with the code. I think you have to devine that the arrow is invisible and for the string... I think its best to make it invisible as well. As when the arrow isn't used the bone goes to that weird place but with normal models it is then hided so you won't see it.

Try to look for things like this in faramir's .ini file, he has it also:

 BeginScript
    CurDrawableShowSubObject("arrow")
 	 EndScript


 	 BeginScript
    CurDrawableHideSubObject("arrow")
    Prev = CurDrawablePrevAnimationState()
    if Prev == "STATE_Selected_Bow" then CurDrawableSetTransitionAnimState("TRANS_BowToSword") end
    if Prev == "STATE_Idle_Sword" then CurDrawableSetTransitionAnimState("TRANS_BoredToSelectedSword") return end
 	 EndScript
