Default Whats in your arsenal?

Wondering what everyone else uses to get the birds in. To see if I'm missing anything or over-doing it. I've got:

1- jake and 2 hen decoys
2- Pretty Boy
3- Box call
4- numerous mouth calls
5- slate call

I seem to add every year but what's your best weapon in getting them to come in?

I carry way too much stuff. On any given hunt, I'll use some or all of the following:
1- two different crow calls
2- an owl hooter
3- 3 slate type calls
4- 3 or 4 different strikers
5- one box call (mostly for a locater)
6- one hen and one jake decoy
7- one mouth call
