Different bows different speed?

I just found this on youtube and thought i'd share it

So theres a purpose behind those 'useless' unique bows in the game? (forki's/angi's/bow of the hunt etc.)

They appear to ready the arrow much faster. can somebody confirm wether this is determined by the type of bow or amount of damage or amount of refinment on a grindstone.

No real purpose. You can fire the Daedric Bow and the Long Bow at the same rate with the Daedric Bow dealing more damage. The thing is the Daedric Bow has the option of drawing more for a longer shot. If you have an enemy coming at you in medium or close range why would you be drawing the bow as much as you can?

Better question. Why do you have an enemy coming at you at close range? Don't you have the paralyze perk? Silly archer.

Paralyze is great when you're one shotting everything from sneak.

Given the games damage scales by multipliers and not flat damage adds the higher base damage weapons will outperform the lower damage but faster weapons by a large margin.
