In entity_standard, under the race's entry:
Code: [Select]
[WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_BOW]
[AMMO:ITEM_AMMO_ARROWS]
And they won't touch the bows when I assign them to.

"When I assign them to"

You can't assign a playable race to bows yet, because they don't exist under the weapons menu. The same applies for daggers and pikes. This is going to be fixed in the next version.

Unless you mod in a new type of crossbow and name it as if it is a bow.
The same goes for bolts, name them arrows.

While officially being a crossbow, the name says bow and your experience will be that it is a bow
