Sinew Bow Damage

So new with the “Woman’s Lot” DLC I again have the ability to get the Sinew Bow. It has the power of 82 versus the power of the Yew Longbow at 77. However, when you alternate equipping these 2 bows the with 'better piercing arrows" the Yew Longbow has the higher damage. I was under the impression the Sinew was supposed to be the higher of the 2. Is this just a read out bug or is the Yew Longbow actually the better of the 2?

After doing a few minutes of research I have answered my own question here…the Sinew Bow I had not used it enough to warrant repair and therefore had not been repaired by me getting the repair bonus from the perk. After I had repaired it once then YES the Sinew bow was in fact giving me a higher damage than the Yew Longbow
