It's incredibly hard and inconsistent to get precision hits on Vex with a bow. I see a year old posts about this topic and it's still there. Bows are normal agains any other enemy but vex you just can't hit drits with a bow.
Vex has bit Wonkyness in the hitbox with other weapons also but bows are just unusable. Go test it out, it's redicillous.

Their chest is extruded and makes it impossible to hit the below crit with anything that remotely arcs or has a large hotbox. I.E. hunter knives do nothing to them.
