bow:
1.nock
2.draw
3.hold
4.aim
5.release
6.follow through

now a gun:
1. load (does not have to be done at time of immediate use)
2. aim
3. fire
4. follow through

Do the math, 6 steps vs. 4. (3 if the gun is pre-loaded) With firearms, you can justify firing on the move, as the mechanics of firing a gun are simpler than firing a bow, and there are firing stances that allow a marksman to fire accurately while moving at a reduced movement speed. With a bow, you don't have that luxery. If you tried to shoot a bow on the run, you would miss at best, break the bow or wind up with a shattered arrow shaft in your arm at worst. The only way archers have ever been able to fire on the move, is from a mobile platform, whether it be a chariot, horse, or if you live on Middle Earth, a shield surfboard. I don't see any of those options happening anytime soon.
to you I say..
