Location: Country Bar

Last night I went out with my buddy to this country bar close to where we live. Its a very good spot for running game since the music isnt too loud, and the girls there are usually hot so there was potential for a good night. I pre-drank a few beers before we left, and on the way there I honestly had a bad feeling about the night. I don't know what it was, I just had a feeling I was going to be dealing with AA issues. As soon as we got in though, that couldn't have been any further from the truth.

When we got to the bar there wasnt a lineup so we went straight in. As we walked in, I went straight to the bar lineup to get myself a beer. From listening to AJ & Jordan Harbinger from pickuppodcast.com, one thing that has stuck with me is, that if your going to be hitting on girls who are drinking, you better have a few drinks yourself. Otherwise you come off as the sleazy sober guy gaming drunk chicks. Anyways, as Im in line I notice a two set in front of me (an HB7 and HB7.5 brunettes) and their singing the song that the band is playing. So I just join in singing lol. Set #1 successfully opened. I bantering with them while Im in line. While my wingman Luke just threw in side comments here and there. After I get my drink, the 2 set of brunettes is waiting for me and my friend so we continue with them and find a place to stand and talk. Im getting IOI's from both girls, however Im running out things to banter with, and my wing because he still isnt very good at game couldn't really help me. After going straight natural I throw out the tattoo's opener in an attempt to prolong the set. It works, and I continue with some more natural C+F to follow it up. However, I soon run out of things to say so I decide to eject by saying I need to get another drink, just so I can save face and not DLV.

So Luke and I go to get another drink. I notice a girl in front of us standing in line with her BF. I open them both just to stay social. I then open the bartender and just chat with him as he serves us and because I was just being a social guy he gives us both a free shot of jaiger! That was the first time a bartender has ever given me a free anything so I was pretty pumped to say the least. Moving on...My buddy takes a set on one of the stools at the bar. So I set up shop next to him and were basically just plotting our next move. What ends up happening though is he is opened by an HB6, so I do the right thing and find a target of my own. I notice an HB7.5 sitting a few people to my right and she just happens to have the same phone as my sister. So I just say to myself "fuck it", and I approach her and open her about her phone. She's very receptive and Im just talking to her about my sister's ridiculous phone habits. I then follow that up with the tattoos opener again. Her friend beside her then introduces herself to me, and says that her best friend has the same name as me. So she calls over her best friend an HB7 Blonde and I just go straight natural game with her. Were talking about the commonalities of our name, and just a lot of playful banter. I transitioned into talking about Jersey Shore which I love to do, because it gets a great reaction. Im getting tons of IOIs. At first I was standing with her, then I took a set on a bar stool so it looked like she was gaming me. However, the problem was I got stuck in comfort building. I was kino'ing, I was doing a lot of good things but I didn't escalate. Eventually she just ejected. Probably got impatient with me. Oh well...

After that my buddy and I went out to the patio area to regroup. We were just gonna go out there to analyze things so far, but as soon as we got out there I saw a mixed 5 set and I dont know what hit me, but I approached instantly. I enter the set by opening the AMOG he was rocking a sick mustache and had most of his shirt unbuttoned, displaying the chest flow. I comment on how sick his mustache is, and how he is making me jealous with his chest flow. The HB7.5 blonde and HB7 brunette to my right are just laughing hysterically at what Im saying and are trying to get me to show my chest. Their lifting up my shirt and the blonde was actually feeling my chest lol (I have an athletic body, so I wasnt surprised, not trying to be cocky). Anyways, I basically just run this mixed 5 set for the next 10-15 minutes. I completely blew out the AMOG and had befriended him within the group at this point. But I could tell just by looking at his eyes that he was thinking "this guy is completely outgaming me".

Anyways the 5 set turns into a 2 set with me and my wing talking to the two girls, when a 3rd HB enters. Shes an HB7 Redhead. Now usually im not into redheads (gingers) at all, but this girl was really cute for a redhead. So I just took her by the hand and started dancing with her out on the patio lol. After a quick dance I just started gaming her straight up with my usual schtick of C+F, negs, and natural game. She was eating up everything I said. We got into some roleplaying using nicknames from Top Gun. I was Maverick of course lol. We walked around the patio just high fiving people. I created an "our world" SPAM, by telling her "I guarentee noone on this patio will turn down a high 5 if we throw one up" And I swear we high fived at least 10 different people lol. After this I just sit her down, formally exchange names and close with "Good Im glad I know your name now, because I dont kiss girls without knowing their name atleast". Boom K-Close. After some banter to follow it up I ejected to go to the bathroom.

On my way back to the patio this cute little HB7.5 Brunette with glasses bumps into me "by accident" and opens me. She notices my shirt which says "Mile High Club" and asks me if im an actual member lol. From there shes giving me tons of IOIs and I know a close of some sort is imminent. Me and wing end up joining her and her 2 friends and Im just gaming her hard. Thats when we exchange names and I realize that her last name is extremely familiar. It just so happens I know who her dad is, and lets just say for me it was game over at that point lol. Theres nothing wrong with her dad, but it was just fucking weird for me.. She was still down, but I wasnt. And she says straight up "that pretty much just ruined it for you" and Im like "yup, well it was nice meeting you lol" All of this was very playful though. Right after I text another buddy of mine telling him about this encounter and he was pissed I didnt try and F-Close her LOL. But I just couldnt.

So at that point Luke and I decide to leave the bar. On my way out I see the HB7 redhead again and #-close her. And that was the end of our night. Overall I was amazed at my ability to open so easily. I wont even credit it to liquid courage because I was not drunk throughout the night. I had a buzz going on, but Ive been overcome with AA before on more drinks. Still it was a good night in that respect. I still have sticking points I need to work on. Escalating earlier being one of them. Anyways, thats all I got for now. Long freaking FR. Feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Good Field report man!
I learned a lot.
nice way you made the K-close, I will remember that one for the future

Maybe you should think about topics you can talk about, or a awesome story about yourself, because you were running out of stuff to say. maybe you also can involve your friend in the story, so he also gets a higher value. wings help each other out huh
I sometimes do stupid things, but most of the time it makes a great story to tell.

Keep up the good work! as far as I can see ( i'm a bit of a AFC) you are doing good.

greets
Seb

I thoroughly enjoyed reading that report.. sounds ace! Awesome job dude!

I wish I could be as confident as you as you were that night when i'm out. I do get what you mean about the whole AA some nights it overcomes you and other nights you feel like you're on fire.

I will definately be adding that last line to my own set, it worked well and I need to try it out now ha!

Thanks guys for the feedback...

Seb: Your right when you say I should have more topics to talk about. My go too stuff right now consists of situational observations, self depreciating humour, negs, tattoos opener, and the show Jersey Shore...I stick with this stuff because Ive used it in field several times. However, I am a well rounded person and I should come up with ways to talk about other stuff...Also your right, I should've involved my wing better. But to be honest, I dont think were at the level yet mutually where we can work off each other. Both of us still have plenty to work on.

Reversal: Thanks for the feedback as well. Nothing better than the nights where your feeling great in the field.

Also I never though much of my K-Close line. I just made it up on the spot lol. It only works though if you havent exchanged names yet, but have built tons of comfort.
