Default Sound hunting strategies?

How many here use/rely more on sound hunting strategies than products?

No wrong answer Jeff. Just curious as to how much faith we put in products over strategies. Example: Scent Killer (That is just an example)

Your brain is the best piece of equipment you can take into the woods.

Both I guess. Sound hunting strategies (and lady luck)are what get you close to the game you are hunting. Its what gets you within range of your quarry. Those sound strategies that get me close are what I take pride in. At that point is when we rely on our products to finish the job for us (bows, broadheads, scents, no scents, grunts, on and on).

Except for those of us who do all our killin' with fists, those guys dont need no stinkin' product.

I use alot of products like scent killer, calls, urine, etc. . .I'm bettin' most of us do. Do I rely on them?? No. I started out without most of them. . . and could do it again if I needed to.

Bingo, I like simple when I go into the woods. Maybe I'm just a nostalgia fan, but I like keeping things as foolproof as possible as well. Which to me means less gadgets/products.

I personally put more faith and effort into my hunting strategies than into a product that someone else created

Most of my kills have been because I listen. Most of the time I hear them coming before I ever see them.
