If you want to train a skill like marksmanship, DON'T use the best equipment you can: You get credit for each hit you make. Poorer gear means you'll need to hit more, so your skills go up much faster.

For training purposes, I'd use no better grade of arrow than silver. I beleive the red-guard smith in viviec FQ has a constant supply of enchanted arrows, and the Legion smith in ebonhart carries glass ones.

The game also has a few daedric darts and throwing stars, far too rare and pricey to actually use, IMO, and I currently have 30 ebony arrows, though I don't know where I got them...

BTW: the same theory applies to other weapon training-- your short blade will increase much faster when you use a steel dagger than a daedric tanto, for instance.
