Wrist Rocket Height

I'm trying to restring my Dipole up in a Pine (the tree has grown
about 10 ft, and the rope needs replacing) so I got out my trusty
Surgical tubing wrist rocket and a 1oz egg weight tied to my 15# test
fishing rod/reel (only using the bottom eye).
No matter how far I pulled back I got about 2/3s of the way up. Im
estimating that is about the 35 ft level.
Shouldn't a wrister go farther ???? need bigger weight ?
Suggestions.
I've shot over 100 feet high with a Wrist Rocket using a 2 oz weight and
about 6 pound test fishing line.
Make sure your fishing reel is nearly full, to minimize the resistance
as the line comes off.
