No-No-NO

You will not increase your range. You are still going to be limited to 35-40 yards. Unless all you can pull is 30-pounds, you will be able to shoot no farther. remember, bow is getting close. It does not matter if the bow is vertical or horizontal. A 185 crossbow shoots no farther than a 150. You just have more trouble pulling the arrow out of the dirt.
