Assuming you could find a spot on your property that would give you line of site without the tree, then yes it's a good antenna for your plot/expectations.
However as has been said, you would likely trade a tree problem for a different problem like longer cabling and need a amp which has it's own problems. If you find a better spot, then the cabling may have to be completely re-done.
It's up to you as to what you are willing to go through to get better rainy day reception. Different location on the roof with a tripod mount? Put a tower in the yard? Put a mast in the tree? And so on, the list is endless.
