The Legolas Feat

Becasue for the cost of one attack, he gives the monk a weapon he can use for multiple attacks.

Unless one has arrows being destroyed when used as melee weapons as well as ammunition, in which case he would be better off shooting at the fiend...

... except in certain circumstances - for example, the fiend is invisible and the monk has Blind Fight, giving him a better chance of hitting than the archer.

-Hyp.

Especially if you can talk the DM into allowing you to treat the arrow as an improvised Siangham and use Flurry of Blows with it.

Roll a Balance skill check vs. DC 5 (or 10, depends on how sadistic your are, DM). A success allow you to ride the shield or sled down a slope with your hands free. Failure requires to spend your move action. To jump off (especially at the end of the "slide"), you must spend your move action.
 

Legolas [General]
You are an elf, and therefore you're naturally superior to nonelves at everything you do.
Prerequisites: Elf
Benefit: You gain a +4 racial bonus to all attack rolls, damage rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks.
 

Special: Once per game session, the Dungeon Master can conjure a horde of screaming groupies who abduct your character and prevent him from participating in one encounter.

Or the Pit Fiend has Protection from arrows... nah ;)

That's Improved Legolas. There's also Advanced Legolas which allows you to treat any creature larger than yourself as flat terrain. Unfortunately, none of these feats are really useful in a D&D game, since the prerequisite is being Legolas. And Tolkien already had a lawsuit against TSR so I don't think we'll be seeing Legolas integrated into the core rules.

Just take Exotic Weapon Proficience (Arrow).

Seems to me that "pointed stick" would be a Simple Weapon, not anything exotic. There shouldn't be any feat necessary to use an arrow as a hand held weapon.
