Does the weight of your mallet make a difference?

Howdy Pards,  :)
Here is a question to all, what I am trying to find out is, when you are carving do you get better depth with a heavy mallet? The reason I ask, I keep the spur strap that WC did when he was at my house right beside my stamping slab, his detail and depth is AWESOME!! I can't get my carving to look that deep??? I use the mallet that I made, it only weighs 1lb. The mallet WC was using was a angle cut Barry King, but I forgot to ask what the weight was????
I would be much great full to hear from you all on this subject .
Thanks in advance!

I've gone through a few mallets ACE, and now I'm using a Barry King 16 oz.
