I never got into all the equipment because at first I could not afford it, but when I could, because of working all the time, I found that the simplicity of a day in the woods really relieved the stresses of work in a technology field. So I have always kept it pretty simple, and I seem to enjoy it that way, so I see no reason to change. I am guilty of using a rattle bag. But, no GPS, no thermacell, no high end glass or rifle, closest thing I have to scent lock, is trying not to fart while hunting.
