I have yet to have an animal come close enough to a ground blind to get a shot with my bow. We have taken several with the rifle but then we are set up 75+ yards away and at that range they don't notice it. I have several tripods and a quadpod not to mention several ladder stands and three hang on stands. I like the elevation factor for seeing what's coming (don't just sit on a feeder) and I think scent wise it is a positive factor at times. I would love to get something out of the pop up with my bow, it just hasn't happened yet.

At my age im getting more and more for comfort, so i pre-fer a ground blind so i can sit all day. Its easier to read a book and grab a snack or just move around. I still always put up the old game tamer for those times when I get the urge.

I prefer the trees in a climber!

I've got both, and have shot animals from both over the same feeder. Like was said above, the weather comes into play, particularly the wind.
One advantage of a ground blind is that you pop it up and you're set to go. Building said tree stand, I fell out and almost killed myself in the process.
Generally, I just like being able to see better where the deer are coming from when elevated, but that pop-up sure is comfy!
I'll also say that I started actually finding more hogs after mortally wounding them once I got elevated at another property I hunt.
