WOMAN → , without her man, is nothing. Or, WOMAN: without her, man is nothing. Either way, I got nothing. Time for a favorite second guess
HEIST → And that’s not bad. Two comcons left, and two vowels; I’ll prioritize the former
LURES → Got the L, placed the E. I thought for a while and decided that two Es were at least as likely as one Y, so I went with
SLEEP
Coming from that start, I’ll take a par, especially since the last letter was a toss-up.
WOOT!

SLEEP - Wordlebot said there were only two choices. I chose. . .wisely.

I may have played this one a little too fast. Scordle’s trick of doubling up on the unplaced letter placed the P at the end, which was good. Then I did think about two E’s, but somehow I didn’t think of them in a row, and so SCHLEP was all I could come up with. Shoulda slowed down and thought more.
On the other hand, it could have been SLEEP, SHEEP, SWEEP, BLEEP, or CHEEP, and no matter which it was, SCHLEP narrowed it to just one word. So I guess I did OK.

Well, at least Wordlebot loved my choices.
SLEEP → Well. Happy for two placed letters, worried that this might turn into a trap soon. Only KOed one vowel, so they’ll have to be a priority
SITUP → Two vowels down, two (or three) to go - but SYRUP is out, so probably just two. Tried to think of something to cover A & O both there, but didn’t, and since STOOP and SLOOP were already gone I figured I should try
SNOOP → So its one or two As. Probably just one, in the middle. R still out there, which needs to go 4th if I try it, so S?ARP, probably not SCARP, so
SHARP
The tail end was a trap - SCAMP, SWAMP and SCRAP were all possibilities. I think I could have doped any of them out with two guesses left, but might have been tight. Happy with a 4.

Too many possibilities to shoot for the birdie. WHOMP may not have been the best sleuth word; if none of my consonants had hit, there still would have been five valid options. But it worked! A little skill, a little luck. And another par.
