Guys,

I am unsure if I should get a ground blind or a tree stand. I am acrophobic so staying on the ground would be quite nice. If I were to get a tree stand, what do I look for in a tree. Yup, the tree! I am new to hunting in general and bowhunting in particular. I do not know what kind or size of tree I should be looking at to hold a tree stand up. I think my lease has Mesquite and Cedar trees -- would these be good enough? I am going to my lease this weekend and will see what size trees are near my feeder.
