Default Bow poundage question - 70 vs 80

Hey guys,

It's been a while since I posted on here, but I have a question that I have been thinking about for all you experts. If a hunter can pull 80lbs on a bow and currently only shoots 70, will he benefit from the increased bow poundage in terms of arrow speed, accuracy and distance?? I was just curious as to your thoughts. It would seem to me the arrow would gain speed and have a flatter trajectory, which should improve down range accuracy, but then would it be enough to actually matter?? Thanks.
