Just got in. An I have to say, knowing what to say helps so much opening sets.
1st Set
Went to a pub first and sat at a table with me and two cousins. Having a chat and noticed a 4 set at a booth about 5 metres away. Had a bit of eye contact with them and it took about 5 minutes to build the courage to go other. Tried an idea I see on here about telling your friends and yourself that your going to screw the approach up etc before hand to ease the nerves. Anyway went over, cracked a smile and used the girlfriend checking boyfriends emails becuase she is cheating on him. It worked perfectly, It was like they was fighting to talk. Then a cousin of mine came over (after I told him not to

) and asked what we was talking about, so I quickly filled him in before ruining it all. Listened for a bit about what they would do and flowed with the convo and then asked how they all knew each other. From here I selected the two towards the out end of the booth for the best friend test. All girls were HB8s btw.
Took one of their hands pretending this was the test, she stood up I spun her around and I took her seat. One of them said something along the lines "that was rude taking her seat" so I just cracked a smile and said it wont be long. Done the test and it worked great again and explained how friends can communicate without talking. At this point I felt awsome but was running out of ideas and has my bloody cousin standing over the table which I thought wasnt a good thing. So I just said have a good night and exited.
After chilling out a bit back with my cousins and going toilet, my cousin noticed that two of the girls had got up to get drinks. I told him that they have been opened and that was my goal tonight as I wasnt prepared for anything more. He persuaded me to go over so we did and sat down. I had now isolated one girl and used the ESP routine of guessing numbers. I got both right and she was absolutely amazed by it. She asked me to do another, I said no dont be greedy with a little tap on the arm. My cousin then was telling me to show them a magic trick where you swap a ring from one finger to the other. I didnt want to do this as I felt I could have used it as a excuse to get the girl I done the ESP on to move away from her friends. By this time I felt all was lost as her friends came back and the boring chat begun about what job we do, age etc. So I I thought fuck it, let me try the magic and see what happens. It worked awsome, then they wanted to see the ESP again and that again worked wonders. My cousin number closed on of the girls as I just left the table as we was leaving the pub.
2nd Set
This time at a club I opened a 2 set, a HB9 and a HB5. Used the same opener and friend test but made a massive mistake. Instead of paying more attention to the HB5 I paid to much attention to the HB9. I used the same trick to take the HB5 chair. The HB9 was very into it, she changed her body position to face me, leaning in and very good eye contact. Ran the friendship test and then noticed TWO of my cousins standing over now watching ffs.

. By this time I lost the HB5 which then lead to her taking the HB9 away.
3rd Set
This was a lame ass attempt in a loud place. Girls couldnt hear me and I didnt even grab their attention at all.
Overall I think it was good practice and learned a few things. Such as go in alone. Pick a target from the go and dont choose while in set. I found that I didnt know who to neg, ignore so she can try and grab my attention etc. An that clubs are difficult places to open in with the damn loud music. An the biggest was from set 2 where I was giving the better looking HB too much attention and not enough to the other girl.
Feel free to criticise where else you think I may have went wrong as all information is welcome.
