Hi Vandoo! Actually arrows still, albeit rarely, see their use in local conflicts in Africa. Back in 2008 during the wave of post-electorial violence that occurred after the final round of Kenya's presidential elections, the Maasai took up seme, bow and arrow against the Kikuyus.

I couldn't find a serious description of it for you, but here at least are some cool pictures
