Right before the bootcamp I've been doing pickup on and off for about two years. One of which I didn't do anything because of an LTR. And I was stuck. I have plateaued and I was desperately looking for a way out. So I was searching for new information on the net. I gotta be honest here. Before the Drills Bootcamp I have hardly heard about Vin's program. But luck as it maybe I stumbled upon his ad on some other seduction website and I just happen to click it. I was pretty skeptical at first because I know absolutely nothing about Vin and *ahem* his website really dun give me enough on what he's about. But then I looked at some of his reviews and they have almost all been positive. And then. The holy grail appeared in front of me. They have a bootcamp in... TOKYO!!!!! Yeah I got a Japanese fetish. So I was like ok. What the heck. I'll just go for it. If nothing else I meet some guys I can hang out and pick up chicks with in Japan.

1st Day of the bootcamp. We met Vin and Matt at the lobby of the hotel. You guys know the drill. Started with a brief introduction to ourselves and we went right into the drills. They did not give us 6 hours of lecture on how to do a false takeaway. We just dove right into the drills. We were split into groups of two and we perform those exercises on each other. The drills are little exercises of things you should consistently during in a pickup. They were actually kinda funny in a weird way... like when u have to kino a guy with a huge friggin beard on his face but I do see incredible value in getting those skills. As we are doing our exercises the instructors would come into each group and give us feedback on what we're doing right or wrong. You can tell Vin and Matt were tired as hell due to their jet lag but they just kept at helping us out. Much appreciated.

First part of the 2nd day was more drills. We actually didn't do any infield work until today. Vin and Matt were very honest with us and told us that it's their first time in Japan and they are not sure about the in's and out's here. They don't even speak the language! But they promise they will calibrate the situation as fast as possible and let us know the results. Matt and Vin were winging us and giving us feedbacks. The surprising thing was the feedbacks were actually not that complicated. They just use one exercise in their drills and it can pinpoint your problem. Like mine was kinoing early and properly. It was dealt with in pretty much 5 minutes and I'll have some results to report at the end of this review.

Third day we just finished some more drills PLUS as a bonus for our good job Vin let us in on something that is not in the Drills Manual (a little booklet we get at the beginning of the bootcamp). Vin and Matt also addressed the language and cultural difference which demands some tweaking to our existing methods. Afterwards we went out for some day game work and the bootcamp was concluded on a great note.

Overall I think it's a great bootcamp. Vin and Matt are very personable guys. They are actually VERY normal. If you met them in the streets you'd think hm they dress nice but you would never think that they are pick up masters. At the night club Matt was able to get a Japanese girl giggling and totally into him in what... 15 mins? And then the next day Vin escorted a girl he just picked up on the street for an instadate and they were holding each other's waist like they're already a couple.

I was very happy that after the bootcamp I see a path in front of me. Before it I had no idea what to work on, where to go. But afterwards I know what my problems are. I haven't internalized all the drills yet but I'm working on them one by one. The night after the bootcamp me and another classmate ALMOST pull a foursome (yes we kinoed very heavily) and the girl I was gaming still emailed me a week after I returned home asking me to call her when I'm in Japan. Now I'm sorta in a casual relationship with this girl I picked up just two weeks before the bootcamp (I major kinoed her on our day 2 which was after Drills) and I'm actually trying to fight her off for a little more distance. I don't know if it has 100% to do with Drills but I'm sure it definitely helped.
