Introduction
Finally, my wing and I decided to put all of our ranting and drunken rambling to the test. We went out with what minimal PU skills we had and decided this would be the first weekend as aPUAs.
As I have noted in previous posts, I am not in the optimal location for PU (Alamogordo, NM), but nevertheless I'm in this to "drastically change my circumstances." When there are no opportunities to be found, you make them for yourself. So we took it to the streets of the Sun City (aka El Paso).
We got a hotel so that allowed us to get almost 2 full days of sarging (Fri Night, Sat, Sun Afternoon). As there is a lot to cover from the weekend, I am going to break each day down into a separate post (probably 2 for Saturday).
The first location was a nice restaurant/bar called "3-legged Monkey" - what an epic name. I recall it being turned into a club on the weekends, but this was not the case during our visit.
We initially walk in to a small crowd with most seeming to be there as an after-work hang out so approaching the sets was slightly awkward as compared to a more social SPAM where people come with the intention of meeting new people.
The First Set
After dodging some obnoxious drunk guy who sought me out as his last option of possible companionship (as his friends were doing their best to avoid eye contact), I located a set that was divided nearly in half with all the young attractive women on one side (a 5-set) and the older couples on the other. I knew this would be difficult, but I approached with confidence and "a smile."
Oh wait, too much time spent focusing on a smiling and confidence, "What the hell should I say?"
Me: Hey guys looks like the party's over here.
Guy1: Yea sure, what's up.
Me: My friend and I are new to the area and just trying to get an idea of what fun out here. Y'all look like you know how to have a good time, any suggestions?
Guy2: Well, there's downtown....
Yada, yada...
Me: So, how do you all know each other?
Guy1: We all work together.
Me: Oh really, it must not be a very friendly work environment, it seems like you've divided the table between the couples and singles.
Guy1: No, we don't know them, that's Guy3's friends he knew from college.
Me: Oh cool, dude you should introduce us so we can get both sides chatting. What's the point of talking to the same people you work with everyday?
Guy3 [The prick of the group]: Hey girls, he says hi. Oh, whats your name?
Me: Boheme
[The jerkoff continues back into his convo with them and I'm left tongue-tied trying to figure out how to get into that set.]
Don't let the conversation lull, say something!
Me [to HB7 across the table]: I love your hair, it's so energetic! [It was partially dyed neon red]
Her: Thanks.
I think, here's my chance to switch sets so I move immediately from the boring couples to the HBs across the table. I approach the HB7 first.
Me: So what was your name again.
Her: Michelle, yours was Boheme, right?
Me: Yea, wonderful memory. So are you guys art students or something. You seem to have a "Bohemian" vibe about you.
Her: Kinda, we're contemporary dancers. We go to school at...
I've finally opened the set, and since I stacked up social value meeting the other side of the table they seemed rather comfortable with me talking to them. So I began to run through what little material I could remember.
- 5-Lies Test
- Number Trick (not sure this has been posted, it's basically a perception trick that asks a group of women to add up simple numbers, but they are sequenced in a way that causes one to guess the wrong answer, I'll post this later if I don't see it already on here)
- Masturbation Stats (I think this is in the opener's section)
I was originally standing (although I should have grabbed a chair earlier), but after these routines the ladies were intrigued and asked me to pull up a chair.
Next, I ran an interesting DHV routine about art (being that they were artists), that asks them whether they believe a person who improves upon work from the past can really be considered an artist. Check it out. [

You can pull a lot of DHV material from there that will make you sound educated and in the “know.”
[If you are wondering about where my wingman is in all of this, he is analyzing my PU to give me feedback. ]
As the conversation among the group begins to wane, I focus my attention on the HB7 (I really loved the spike of red hair). I think I was getting a few IOIs, but I wasn’t really paying attention. She seemed really eager to get to know me, but I was too much of an AFC to escalate any further. Honestly, my game plan for the weekend was to open as many sets as possible and try to establish rapport and DHV. Who knows, EP is not very big so I might see her again.
Do you all have any suggestions on how I could’ve isolated the HB7 from the 5-set, I think it would have been extremely difficult. And she didn’t seem like the type to give out personal information in front of her friends.
Overall, I felt the first set went really well and set a positive tone for the night. We opened another set before moving on to bigger game in the downtown area. This set was two HB7s and their brother, which I didn’t realize upon initial contact. Because of this I didn’t win him over, and once the brother started moving away from us the HBs did too.
That’s a lot for one FR so I’m going to continue writing about the rest of the weekend throughout the week. Keep checking for future FRs this week as this is just the beginning.
