If you can pull more, do it, just make sure that the new weight is going to allow you hunt efectively. I know I could pull 75-80 pounds on the indoor range, but out in the tree, there's no way with the nerves going. My bow is at 65# for hunting, and that's good for me! I would say stick with what you are comfortable with, it's not a big macho contest to see who can pull the most weight!
