If I were to get a tree stand, what do I look for in a tree. Yup, the tree!

Funnel areas... Any place the terrain would &quot;encourage&quot; the deer to travel through a certain area. I particularly like &quot;outside&quot; corners of fields or fresh clearcuts..

You say you have mesquite trees and cedar. That sounds like texbook tripod teritory. Where I hunt here in Texas we have many setups that don't have trees big enough to set up a treestand. I have used tripods to get up 12 or 14 ft with much success.

Good Luck and good hunting...
