This is a decent book, but it's not worth $60. I did appreciate a lot of the scripted routines but the vast majority of PUA books I've ever bought cost about $15. Simply put, this book isn't 4 times better than say Rules of the Game or new version of the Mystery Method.

I also get the feeling a lot of the reviews for this book are friends of the author.

I say if you want to spend $60, buy The Game, Mystery Method, Rules of the Game and the Layguide and you'll get far more out of those four books than this one book.

Let me also say, if this book were $15 like the rest, I'd give it four stars. Why they feel they can gauge people is beyond me... guess they don't want to see that many books.

Savoy has set before himself what might seem an impossible task, to describe in practical, actionable terms the very terms by which men and women relate to each other. While Neil Strauss's The Game is an exciting tale about one man's search for meaning between a host of women's thighs, Savoy is more interested in describing the journey any given guy might go through. From the perspective of a reader looking at Magic Bullets as a technical manual there is something in Magic Bullets for any guy wishing for more knowledge and insight in his dealings with the fairer sex. More interesting, though, is the book's use as a psychological study. Wherever you stand on the ethical implications of the so-called seduction community, anyone who has been around enough women will find themselves nodding at Savoy's sage words and wisdom, women themselves most especially, I think. Where Sigmund Freud ran into an obstacle, Savoy has picked up the baton and run with it. The results are at turns thrilling or illuminating.

This book has completely transformed my life. My first exposure to Magic Bullets was my junior year in high school. I couldn't go out three nights a week to practice, much less go to bars or clubs, but was easily able to adapt the techniques to other social environment and suddenly found myself transformed from a shy, nervous wallflower to someone who could command the attention of a room and entertain and interact with a beautiful girl. The techniques, behaviors, and mindsets in this book will, as you gradually implement them, elevate your social value significantly.

You will have the best chance of success in using the material in Magic Bullets if: (1) You are of above average intelligence and (2) have at least some personality that you can magnify. It doesn't matter if you are nerdy, cocky, funny, and/or sensitive, as long as you are not completely boring and lacking in personality, Magic Bullets will show you how to best highlight your strong points and how to "fake it until you make it" on the others. Once you have mastered the material, you will be justified in being a little cocky, you will be funnier, and you will have a well-calibrated sense of when and when not to be sensitive.

If you are more academically than socially gifted, you will do well with Magic Bullets. I won't say I was nerdy, because I still am. I watch CSPAN and take biochemistry for fun. It doesn't try to beat that out of you. Magic Bullets teaches you, once you have attracted a girl, to draw her in with your passionate interest in something.

The scripted routines are especially helpful. I was not crippled by a lack of confidence, but I had no idea what to talk about with a girl, having never had any close female friends or sisters. Magic Bullets gave me a starting point for real conversations with girls, and taught me how to recognize good topics to draw girls in and show off my best self. The routines only seemed strange to deploy the first few times I used them, afterwards I was able to personalize them and became very comfortable using them, because they became genuine.

One caveat: this is not "The Game." Magic Bullets is much closer to a textbook than to a novel. Take notes. Practice. Memorize. Internalize. Make a couple flashcards to keep in your wallet or on your phone. If you hated studying in school and can't sit down for half an hour and learn something, don't bother. The information is fascinating and more fun to learn than any academic textbook, but requires a similar approach. You will have to read most sections more than once, but it is very interesting material and. If you practice implementing the material, you will become more skilled at meeting and attracting beautiful women.

It took me awhile to get into the whole pickup thing. I came in doing well with girls, I just relied to much on having girls approach me or using my social circle, I was not really creating anything for myself and I was getting lucky.

To say I was skeptical would be an understatement. I had read the Game and found those things like pea cocking and other techniques used by Mystery and other PUA's at the time were not for me. I assumed Magic Bullets would be more of the same. What I found in magic bullets was the exact opposite. Were the techniques in "The Game" appear to be deceitful, the techniques of Magic Bullets were aimed to teach men how to properly carry on a conversation with women and to properly engage on an emotional and physical level.

Even when employing the things I learned from Magic Bullets, I did not come off as the creepy guy throwing out canned routines or cheesy lines, I was the charming guy who knew how to properly guide a conversation. From the female perspective, I was not the guy asking her do you come here often? Or what do you do for work? Or the always awful, what's your sign? Instead I was the guy talking about hobbies, goals, common interests, and other things of interest. I was the guy able to spike her interest through the right emotional channels and physical touch (once again not in a creepy way but at the right time for the conversation.)

The biggest problem most guys have even when they get past using lines and start being interesting is that they run into issues such as bragging, or just not being able to convey their stories in a way that actually demonstrates their value, or just being able to convince a girl that you are not hitting on her for her appearance as most want to know that they are interesting and worth the attention for something other than fleeting physical appearance. My biggest problem was creating an emotional attraction but I did not know how to convey the physical I had to rely on her finding me physically attractive for that. All of this and more is taught in Magic Bullets.

In short Magic Bullets can teach a quality guy how to get out of his own way, get over his fear of approaching women, and become the charming guy he always was just didn't know how to be and get the woman of his dreams or the women he wants to bring home that night. On the other hand the book also will help women meet the guy they have been waiting to find whether for a relationship or one night of adventure.

Guys you can continue to get drunk and wait for the liquid courage, or use the same cheesy openers as before believe me it will make things a whole lot easier for me if you do.

I was really skeptical before I started to read this book. Who is Savoy? Can you really learn how to pick up women? I saw some videos of the company on the Internet but I was still wary. Before purchasing this book I signed up for their newsletter. It doesn't come across as a sales newsletter but it actually has useful tips and advice for meeting women. That's what got me hooked on buying this book and to see if I can actually learn how to pick up women.

Since I like reading books on my lap and in bed, I opted to buy the hardcover instead of the ebook. Honestly, I still can't believe they don't teach stuff in school! Now I know why I was always getting in the friend zone because apparently there is a sequence of emotions women need to feel before they will date you. The book teaches you the Emotional Progression Model which explains what you need to do step-by-step in order to start a relationship with a girl. It's really easy to understand and it makes sense.

That makes it so easy to learn and I definitely had fun trying the things out in the book. The first time I tried an "opener" (the book has scripts which make it easy to start a conversation) I had a gorgeous woman talking my ears off. I couldn't believe it! Then we started talking about things we have in common, what the book calls "building comfort", and eventually I got her phone number. I was a believer this stuff works!

The book also has more techniques on building attraction, making her physically comfortable around you, and seducing her into your bedroom. I didn't try all of them yet but I can't wait!
The only thing I missed was lack images. It was mostly text and sometimes tables with texts. I would love to see more images since I consider myself a visual learner. That's why this review gets 4 stars instead of 5. Other than that, I think this book is great. It really opened my eyes on how women think and how they view dating guys. I always thought "you either have chemistry or not" but it turns out you can control the levels of "chemistry" you make her feel for you (what the book calls "building attraction"). Since the book also has some scientific references, that makes it more credible. I let my friends read the book and they too said it was a great book. Highly recommended for the single guy.

After reading "The Game" by Neil Strauss, it helped open my mind of how brilliant these guys were at what they do and what I've been missing out on. "The Game" helped me a lot in my dating life and after reading Magic Bullet by Nick Savoy, my game pretty much skyrocket.
The book "Magic bullet"Magic Bullets: 2nd Edition gives you a system of how to succeed with woman and I must say it has been tremendous. When ever I go out and make a mistake with a woman I'm able to see where that mistake was made. I understand the entire system because of the book. I'm able to look at what I did wrong and make changes to my game because of it. Then I go out another night implement those changes and keep getting better at it. If I notice other mistakes in my game I just read the chapter that I messed up on thoroughly and keep implementing changes.
This book is great to keep in your arsenal for socializing with women. I must tell you though to read the entire book, be prepared and go out. If you made a mistake just pick up the book on the section you made a mistake on and do it again. Even though its a great book, you won't become great at the game unless you get out there and make the mistakes. Be happy to make the mistake because I am and I trust that I could refer back to the book to make the certain changes.

TRUST ME, THIS BOOK IS SUPERB!!!!!!!!!

This book provides a lot of information about the subject in a manner that is easy to read and comprehend.

Some of the stuff is common sense which is good because some people can use that, but Savoy will get you out of your little bubble and out there on top of your game.

It's not a book for people who are lazy or unwilling to give it a try.

It costs a lot because it's more like a text book than anything. If you're willing to take the time and use this tool to improve your life then by all means buy this book.

But if you buy it and don't take the time to practice the material it provides, you'll end up writing a one star review and going back to your lonely lifestyle.

Just like a textbook you'll need not only read it but digest, understand, and practice this stuff. It works it works it works. As long as you put in the effort.

The most important thing to remember when you're buying this is that you shouldn't be relying on it for overnight success. This book teaches you how to achieve your own success by being the best you that you can ultimately be.

This book genuinely changed my perspective on the subject and that's a definite bonus considering after nearly a year with this information and that found in other love systems books, I have benefited significantly.

Compared to other books on the subject I'd say this is the cream of the crop. The absolute best out there and you're indefinitely going to get what you pay for.

I had been aware of this author's work for a while, leading up to my purchase of the book. I had found the author, Savoy, and the company he works with, fairly helpful in their advice on picking up and dating. There were, however, a wide variety of people and resources out there on this topic. Some seemed useful, and some, useless.

Eventually I took that plunge and bought this book - I haven't looked back since. Out of all the advice I've read or dating products I've bought, I have made by far the most advances in my dating life with Magic Bullets. I think the reason for this is that a lot of the other resources out that are not as succinct and complete as Magic Bullets. If this sounds a bit vague than let me be more precise without giving too much away.

Whereas other products skim over this area, the first few chapters of Magic Bullets cover the best mindsets or attitudes to have and detail female psychology. The following chapters (the bulk of the book) each carefully cover a different step of the process of picking up and attracting women. And this made it really easy for me to learn and improve. I would read a chapter, go out and practice with the right mindset (the mindset that I learnt from the first couple of chapters), get that part of the process down fairly well, and then move on to the next chapter. If I was having trouble getting where I wanted in a social interaction, it was great to be able to know roughly where I was in the process, go to the corresponding chapter in the book, see "Oh I skipped that point" or "didn't do that right" and fix it next time. In addition to this, there are a bunch of bonus chapters at the end, on skills like texting or storytelling, which I had found a lot of other resources on dating and pickup had neglected altogether.

By all means Magic Bullets is no magic potion to success - indeed this is something that Savoy covers in the first few chapters on the best mindsets and attitudes to have. It still took a fair bit of perseverance and practice from a guy that had previously very little success with attractive women. But only a few months down the track and I'm starting to date women that I never thought I had a chance with. And even now I still go back to Magic Bullets, read and practice the finer points, and continue to improve. I would highly recommend Magic Bullets to any man looking to improve their dating life.

For a while you know, I was down and tired of thinking about how to get the girl I had desired into my life. Like it could happen to any guy, when you think you've found the one, but she's not into you or at least she doesn't act like that!
A friend of mine introduced "Magic Bullet", he seemed pretty happy with it so I gave it go too. Mann!
So many things I had no idea about and just too much a man like me could get wrong when it comes to understanding women, all well explained, honestly my jaw was dropped , lol.
Not it only helped me improve my skills behaving towards women, but it also was a great resource for those who demand a better social life.
I haven't read much about these topics, but you know, I'll look no further either. I got all the answers I was looking for and much more.

Thanks Nick :)

Are you the type of male who spends much of his mental life crafting (or perhaps simply fantasizing) strategies for increasing his social life with women or even "simply" getting a girlfriend? Are you the type that prefers a whole system that fits together into a complete whole rather than just purely anecdotal stories, "you had to be there" boasts and random, disconnected "pickup line" manuals?

In this book, Nick Savoy does a good job of reverse engineering the process of generating attraction in a woman and then progressing beyond that. It is a systematic approach that is a good introduction into the psyche of women and those men who are "naturals" and don't even need to think about their approach toward women. As the author admits, the title of the book is an ironic play on the notion that there exists one technique that works for every guy, in every situation, and on every girl. This is a systematic framework that is the first step toward creating your own path, and yet everyone will take different positives and negatives from the system in crafting his own way forward.

So...as long as you take the book with a grain of salt and don't necessarily expect all of your problems to be solved after one read, it is a great foundation into the concepts and vocabulary you will need for future study and mastery.
