I noticed some posts today that dealt with
day game, so I thought that I would post some things Ive learnt about
day game as there doesnt seem to be as much written about it compared with clubbing (of course the reason being is that clubs have a more target rich environment).
Ive found there are some differences between day and night game (and heaps of similarities also). I guess this is a work in progress project and comments are welcome. Im no expert, just hoping this may help some people. Btw, this is in no particular order!
1. In my opinion,
day game is harder than night game. At night in a club, chicks expect to be picked up, theyre drinking, theyre in a fun atmosphere, their senses are heightened and the energy level is pumped up.
Day game does not have these things. they've got to be somewhere; they're in a hurry; they're bored; theyre thinking about serious stuff; theyve got to catch that bus etc
2. Point 1 is NOT an excuse to avoid
day game. Its natural to get approach anxiety (I don't have a problem approaching, but I still get the fear at times (I think most of us do if we are honest), but its just something that you have to push through
3. It's a good idea to interact with a set every time you are walking around. During the day, when I leave the office for coffee, lunch, or whatever, I've made myself a rule that I HAVE to interact at least in some way with a chick. It doesn't necessarily HAVE to be running a routine or be a number close or anything, but as a minimum it's got to be some sort of interaction: end result, we both end up feeling better for our efforts.
4. Depending on the location (and your delivery of course) girls are initially a little taken aback that someone is actually talking to them. I think it's a shame these days that people on a train/bus etc feel uncomfortable if someone talks to them. But don't let this stop you. I've found, that once they realise that you are just being playful, or just asking their opinion on something, and you're not a creep, then they will open up.
5. Sometimes they've had such a shit day and are in so much of a hurry that you can't get their full attention. If they are not receptive and want to get somewhere, just let them get on with things.
6. Don't underestimate the value of SOCIAL PROOF. I noticed this in one of cedars posts (I think?) a couple of months ago. So now with people I see regularly, rather than game them specifically, I use them as social proof. This can range from the girl in the coffee shop, the lunch shop, the chick that cuts my hair (major girl action in that place btw) I walk in now, the whole damn salon knows my name, they all say hi (I go out of my way to say "hey you haven't introduced me to your friend"), and I see a few of them in the clubs (guess who gets to meet their friends!!)
7. Often they don't have much time. They might be on their lunch break, or getting a coffee, or getting the mail, whatever. The point is that often they can't go to a cafe with you straight away to build comfort (they may not be able to drop things to meet with you there and then). So you have to be prepared to settle for a short interaction, and convene another time to meet up. Be flexible. Have options.
8. Initially I wasn't giving them my name, and waiting for them to ask, as per the MM formula. Due to the short interaction, I feel you have to break this rule.
9. Kiss closes haven't been possible in the day for me so far. That's not to say it's impossible, but privacy and social uncomfortableness (the girl kissing in public, that is) get in the way. Oh and if you have a f-closed on the street, you're one dirty bastard!!
10. I find most things in the MM formula work during the day - it works just like at night
11. Age is sometimes an issue. I have a fondness for young women. By young (its all relative) I mean early 20's (I'm 35). In a club, due to age restrictions this stops a lot of the under 18's getting in (18 is drinking age in oz). On the street/beach etc, 18 and 19 year olds look a lot like early 20 something year olds, so I've got to be careful about gaming the babies. It becomes apparent pretty early (lots of 'ummmmmm' and 'liiiiiiiiiiike' gives em away) and I just eject.
12. Beach game is fucking awesome. Ohhhhhh, the bodies!! Holy fuck! I lurve beach game. Did I mention that I love beach game? Haha. I started out using the patented "Scooby Beach Opener" (see this link when I first posted it after my first use of it
Beach Approach
there's an early field report somewhere there too). Basically it involves rocking up in a pair of board shorts (helps to have a good body) to the beach. Walk past your set, take out your car key and phone from your pocket, look around to see where you can put your belongings, turn around to the set and say "hey guys, can you look after my stuff while I jump in for a swim". Lock in prop! Tease them about how they don"t look all that trustworthy. Go for a quick swim, and come back and say something like "thank fuck my stuffs still here" (smile). You will get giggles. Tease them about getting sand in your phone etc. Then run your routine "hey guys, while I'm here, can I get an opinion on something?". Need to be careful sometimes, look at how many towels there are an lookout for the angry b.f. coming back for a swim (ignore 3 second rule here)
13. meeting a girl 'out of the blue' fits in with girls fantasy of meeting their dream guy by chance (you know how it goes "gee it was incredible, I just met this amazing guy while lining up for coffee, it was amazing. It must be meant to be!" blah blah blah.) But this 'chance' meeting is much more endearing than "yeah I met this guy at the local pub" (where she's met her last 6 boyfriends). This is different!
14. There are a wider range of girls to be gamed in the day, compared to night. A lot a hot chicks don't like the club scene.
15. Sometimes the 3 second rule does not apply. Eg beach
16. Head to head approaches (she walking down the street towards you) (ok these, I admit, are the ones I need to work on. At the moment, I'm just saying 'hi' with a smile. To stop a chick walking in the opposite direction is hard but im going to nail it.
17. The approach may be different depending on location. E.g. chick sitting on park bench - fuckin easy, no problem. Run opener, false time constraint (hey, you've already got a coffee in your hand, you're on your way back to the office right?), sit down, and you're off!
18. Situational openers: the use of these depends on the location I guess. It depends a lot on what level your game is and how confident you are about 'fitting it in' with the current situation. Example: You're standing next to some girl at the traffic lights waiting to cross the road (throw in a neg, make some sort of comment about her or some variation of the usual "nice bag, my grandmas got one just like that"). Easy. Or in a shop, "i need to pick out a present for my female friend, what do you think of this one". Then "Hey while we're talking, how bout I get an opinion on something?". Other times, I can just walk past a set, spin around with a quizzical look as if I just thought of something and say "hey, guys can I get a quick opinion on something?".
19. the locations for
day game are only limited to your imagination (shops, gym, street, park, sporting events, bbqs, public transport, the list goes on)
20. Most importantly, have fun!
