I'm with otter on this one. It really has to be both. Knowing when and how to shoot can be as important as finding the animal. Personally, I don't waste a lot of time on equipment. As stated, a 1 inch rifle will kill every animal in the places I hunt and dots, turrents, rangefinders, are gack. Still, sliding a bullet through holes in the brush means the difference between dragging or not. Being good at what you do and with what you have isn't a bad thing.
If you want to "dance on the head of a pin" over equipment that is your choice. I want to shoot and scout.
