I have a 200-lb draw one that will put monofilament 50lb fishing line over 100 ft trees 150ft away and land 300ft beyond it. It is also very accurate and does not require you to build up muscle power to draw like a traditional bow and arrow. Problem is, you can't reduce its power for smaller trees and distances so I had to get some less powerful ones (80/150 lbs). Make my own arrows from 6 mm copper tubing.
