Attaching nylon line and shooting in to trees?

Attaching nylon line and shooting in to trees?

Hey friends, I’ve got a situation where I think a cool crossbow would fit the bill.

I’ve got three large Japanese maples on my property and some have dead branches way up. At lower heights I use a golf ball with nylon line and a large diy slingshot on a handle.

I’d like to attach the line to the back of a bolt and fire it up there. Range needs to be more than 100feet near vertical, any more than that is fine and dandy, as long as the line doesn’t break.

I saw some rinkydink fishing combos at Bass pro shops but I don’t think this will cut the mustard. Same theory tho, I’d need a reel to attach so like a pic rail for goodies.

What do y’all think? Got any recommendations? Budget is ballpark $500 -700 and location is California, USA.
