Has anybody tried growing bamboos from cuttings?

yes. =)

different types have different methods of propagation. clumps can be
divided, rhizomes can be cut, and in some of the tropical species, you
can propagate from culm cuttings. i've had success with those three
methods myself, with various bamboos.
