I guess hobbits being able to effectively fight by throwing stones is a PJ myth. Bilbo throws stone at heavily armoured orc, orc dies instantly...

Tooks are usually stronger and more adventurous and willingly to fight. It's also said that Brandybucks used bows, and they lived at the border of the Shire, so they had to deal the most with strangers. But I know no source that says that hobbits generally were skilled with the bow.
