Since the ranger doesn't have to fulfill the prerequisites for his combat style feats I would actually dump Point Blank Shot. The key feats for an archer would be Precise Shot, Rapid Shot, Manyshot, Deadly Aim, and Snap Shot.

I would disagree with snap shot over improved precise shot.

Also a ranger can ignore the prereqs only for their bonus feats, which means that precise shot, rapid shot, and improved precise shot would all have to be bonus feats..

But if you don't value improved precise shot (which I do highly as its early access is one of the archer ranger's advantages over a fighter archer) then you could do so if you wouldn't mind delaying one of rapid shot/ precise shot until 6th level.

I know I'm new to Paizo, but not new to D&D or pathfinder. One trick ponies are actually fun, because combat is only one portion of the game. Plus during combat you can always use your abilities in new ways with creative ideas. I am currently rocking a fighter who is exclusively Longbow specialized and no part of combat has become boring because when you focus on one aspect you can maneuver around and make that aspect fun every combat. Mine is a priest (not cleric) who began as a zealot against certain religions, then became more humble and pious, but he used almost exclusively a longbow. So it is all about how you play it.
