It is better to prioritize making up for missed fasts over observing a vowed fast when there is ample time for both. The Hanbalis hold that it is obligatory to prioritize making up for missed fasts over a vowed fast, because the former is a duty by original injunction, and thus takes precedence over what one has made obligatory upon oneself. When both coincide, making up for missed fasts takes precedence.
