It's been so long since I've used a bow other than the Draugr Fang that I can't really tell if they did something with draw time. The DF still seems as good as ever. I have no problem shooting Deathsquitos out of the air at virtually any range if they're not moving.
I went back and tried the Huntsman's bow. Wow... slow draw time is painful. That seems off. Accuracy is okay. I know from the Wiki there's a calculation that improves accuracy with draw time.

If I remember correctly the huntsman's bow is the only bow in the game with a "hidden stat".

It does not reveal your position to enemies when fired (i.e. silenced)

The devs were reported so dejected by the fact that this was so unknown and underappreciated by the player base that they have little interest in adding "hidden" stats to future items and weapons. But I think they are bluffing.

I'm not so sure that stat works as advertised. When I had my troll set on and the huntsman bow I was sneaking up on deer to increase my larder and if I missed they still alerted on the first shot and ran off about half of the time.
