So I have never done a boot-camp in my life, there are so many that seem to offer a lot, but I just wasn't wasn't able to really commit and throw down that kind of cash. Then I heard about Vins boot-camp. I was extremely skeptical of Vin before I took his workshop, between his scary avatar on the board (woodhaven) and the really bad skeezy press in the Boston magazine combined with him not being as well known as some of the other "gurus" I had no idea what to expect. Thanks to some guys who have met/talked with Vin first hand, my anxiousness was relieved.
Vins form of pick up is drastically different than anything I have ever seen, same with his style of teaching. I am tempted to say that everything you now know about pickup is wrong, that's definitely not the case, but Vin seems to really be on to something here. Vin does drill based exercises that make you prepared in the field. Like I said earlier, I felt like he was the mr miyagi to my karate kid. The whole weekend it was paint the fence and wax on wax off. The drills that Vin made us do put behaviors into my head that just naturally came out of me when I was talking to girls. A anonymous member of this board put it best by saying "This is the fastest way to get good at pickup with out turing yourself into a dancing monkey"
If you feel bogged down by all the "knowledge" that you know when you walk into a bar as I did, if you feel that your really close to getting over that hump, yet still really far away, if you hate the idea of running DHV routines and wish you could just be yourself around a girl and just have her like you for who you are, this is the workshop for you.
Vin turns you into a natural, as he did to me. While I still have a LONG ways to go, I am no longer going to chase any more info, the VERY LITTLE amount of info/theory he provided us with was more than enough to complete an entire sarge from open to lay, this covers EVERY ASPECT of your game, from inner game, dominance to everything. I am extremely thankful for this weekend, I feel completely transformed into a completely different breed of pick up artist, one who doesn't rely on DHV stories and Canned material or anything like that, I feel like.....a natural.
If I we're to give Vin a title it would definitely be "The most powerful of all the Jedi" definitely more so than all those "gurus" out there who supposedly have great info. The reason why I say this, is what sets Vin apart from other PUAs is that his style of game is incredibly organic and open and honest and free-flowing, exactly what a real confident alpha male should be. Vin doesn't help you pretend and fool a girl that your a dominate male, he MAKES you a dominate male.
With all that said, I suppose its time for a field report. For those of you who know me in real life, you know that I've known/been apart of the community for about 1.5 years. I've been collecting gobs and gobs of theory and info which is great and interesting, but incredibly useless in the field. Tonight I had the biggest breakthrough in my game than ever in my entire life.....EVER. But before I go into that I have to do a full weekend recap.
So friday night after the first set of drills, me and my fellow bootcampee's, as well as Vin, Alf, Brian and Bob(who are equally as good instructors) went out to Underbar in Boston.
Underbar is a really posh spot, house music, hot rich girls ect ect. The venue was really loud which made verbal game very difficult. But based on what we had learned about warm dominance that day we still had a decent night. At first everyone was really nervous about approaching, but watching Vin, Alf and Brian really show what the 3second rule is all about, was very inspiring. Many of us (including myself) got blown out of some sets, but most (if not all) of us dominated some sets.
The highlight of my night was when I approached a girl and yelled some nonsense into her ear (the words didn't as it was sooooo loud)||she responded with "I have a BF he's in the bathroom right now" in which I instinctively responded with "oh thats great blah blah blah blah blah" and being dominate and very positive and organic, I did not have a single line of text planned out for this interaction nor did I for any interaction the entire weekend.
What shocked me as after talking to this girl for a while I said "yeah, you really don't have a BF do you" and she said "yeah well....its this guy, he's trying to be my BF I'm just really not into him like that"||I was stunnnnnned. As she said that her "BF" came over and was trying to be very aggressive and AMOG me, saying "I see you met my GF here" I said "its ok bro, she just told me your not her BF that your TRYING TO BE, she's just not into you like that, but its ok cause that's why I'm here" (mind you I was pretty sloshed when I delivered that line) the look on his face was priceless, lucky for both of us I was "rescued" by her friend and I ejected, not a great out come but still solid for a first night of totally new game.
After the second day of drilling we all went out and Tore up Allston, starting with||the whitehorse. Brian literally defines what it means to obey the 3second rule, literally 3seconds after the bouncer gave him his ID back he was chatting up the hottest 4set in the entire bar. All of us workshopee's did really solid that night. most if not all of us number closed. I number closed a hot 26 year old pharmacist (I'm a 22 year old college kid) and I also number closed a hot girl that works at the victoria's secret on newbury (I can't wait to see what her employee discount has gotten her ||The really funny thing was, while I was chatting her up, her friends came over to try and "rescue her" but she literally said "not right now I'm talking" which also stunned me.
The highlight of the weekend was tonight though, after the 3rd day of drilling, everything kinda just clicked and I really had my mind blown away by this stuff. I left the workshop feeling like a new man. I went out with my AFC friend and his girlfriend. We went to a bar in fanueil hall and....... I owned the place. While I number closed about two girls, the majority of the night I was with this one HOTT HB8.5 girl who I dominated and she ate up every bit of it. Oh yeah did I mention the fact that I KNEW she had a boyfriend.
I commanded this girl around and she had no resistance to any of it, lots of kino, lots of moving her around the venue (about 5 spots total cause it was a big place) I had tons of compliance from her to, from her waiting for me outside of the bathroom while I pissed to surprising me with buying me my favorite drink (yes that's right folks, I had a girl with a BF buy me a drink, something that has NEVER EVER happened to me before)
I was so shocked by my success from the evening that when I was in the bathroom I had to splash water on my face to calm myself down cause I couldn't believe what was happening, I was in aw of myself.....and what Vin had instilled me. After tons of flirting and fun I had her leave the venue with me, another thing I couldn't handle, I had a tiny little make out with her but I could see her conscience coming into play. I went for the number close I said "we should get coffee sometime" in which she said||"yeah I had a great time tonight, but I have a BF" I responded with "nice, that's cool, but when we get coffee you'll just be with me, gimme your number" she smiled and said "ok" and gave me her number, I put it in my phone and it showed up on her screen and I even watched her save it in with my name. All in all a siiiiiick night.
Now am I saying I'm a pick up artist? no.
Am I saying that I have it all figured out and have more game than any of you guys...definitely not
What I am saying is that this weekend totally transformed me. It turned me, a man who had never met his father and was raised by women and taught to supplicate for them since the age of 4 into a natural alpha male. For the first time ever in my entire life I feel like "I got it" All I need now is practice, and practice I shall.||
I HIIIIIIGHLY recommend anyone who is remotely curious about Vin and his teachings to DEFINITELY give him a shot, he is one hundred percent the real deal. I just can't wait for him to write an autobiography.
Also, I know I am giving Vins workshop RAVE reviews, I'm full aware of that. But trust me when I say I'm being 100% honest with you guys, no BS, no marketing, all truth. There are other people on this board who did this workshop with me who I will let make themselves known at their own discretion.
All in all, I feel like a new man, and this summer is definitely gonna be one hell of a ride!
Thank you Vin, Alf, Brian and Bob!
