No, as long as you are set up right. The arrow has to be paper tuned. Just take it to your nearest archery shop, they will get you set up. I quit bowhunting 2 years ago. Was using expanding tips. I didn't have a range problem. I only shot out to 30 yards. Impact didn't change through mesh window. I shot 10 or 12 deer out of the blind. The extra resistance has to have some effect, just didn't see it out to 30. I still use the blind, just not the bow. Those little heaters are amazing in the ground blinds.
