Your bow won't do you any good while you're dead now, will it? 20-hexed could be useful if you know you're going up against hexers, but it's not a condition that you control. If you're going solo against a warrior, this mod won't help you.
Especially with a hex like ineptitude on you. 20% isn't gonna do much when you're in pain/blind..

I was thinking of potential farming situations where you'll be hexed, but the hexes don't impair you too much. 20-hexed would be pretty useless in PvP. You wouldn't really be attacking too much if someone's really seriously hexing you.

15^50 due to that I would be often have above 50% health then say, stances.

I would not need to "feel" that I am in more control if I used stance based bow or other weapon.

Well some farming builds (solo) u are constantly below 50% of health. Like the warrior version of the ids farming. If u watch the vid made on it the persons health is maintained below 50% for most of the fighting part. Not saying i would use it but...its not completely useless.

20 hexed is alright but u r hexed and u can't control the damage increase, hense the reason its a 20% and not 15%. I would actually consider this type of mod but it would mainly depend on area.

I have 15^50 on all my primary bows, though my soloing bow is a 15 while enchanted, because as a R/Mo I keep enchantments up most of the time.

Bow strings are even more situational to argue about, though I think an interesting discussion on bow grips might be had:

Fortitude adds up to 30 health, but if damage/warding/shelter grips keep you from losing health, are they not better?

If you self heal with Healing Breeze (R/Mo) or Shadow Refuge (R/A), an enchanting grip may actually be better.
