The problem is the VHS resolution, which is roughly half of good DV...
You can use a video EQ (I use the Videonics...) to pre-EQ the
picture to get better VHS copies. I generally increase sharpness,
and decrease saturation - and sometimes increase contrast, apply
color shift, and/or brighten/darken the DV image when copying
to VHS to give the impression of there being a better VHS picture
(the results are good, but hardly exact copies of the original!).
