RE: Am I being unfair??? (long story)
If you are too heavy to hunt "his" stand, buy a pop up blind, or just cut a few limbs and make a ground blind. If the farmer wants the deer killed, he wouldn't care about you trimming a few trees. (I'd still check with him first) Just sit there and wait the deer out. If you've never killed a deer, you may need his experience with field dressing, or help with the dragging. A 100lb doe feels like 250lbs after you've drug it a few hundred yards by yourself. They make stands that support over 300lbs, Wally world has a 2 man stand that is rated for 500lbs and is $100. Plenty of room to stretch out in it. Good luck on your first deer, but don't be ticked off when you invite a guy on a deer hunt and he takes one..... thats time for pics and memories, not grudges.
