Whenever PUAs go out together and wing for each other, there is the potential for misunderstandings and stepped-on toes, especially for guys who have not winged for each other often.

To mitigate this problem, here are some general guidelines to make sure everyone has a good time and gets the girls that they want.

First of all, wingmen should always keep this mantra in mind: “Whoever opens the set, owns the set.”

If you enter a set that a fellow PUA is already working, whether by being introduced by that PUA or by you entering the set on your own, please remember that your wingman already owns the set.

It is YOUR job to find out who your wingman is actively targeting. You can do this by using a code question such as “Who’s the cheeky girl?” or by asking your wingman directly.

Once you find out who your wingman’s target is, it is your job to engage the other people in the set, whether they are obstacles or legitimate targets for you.

Do not game your wingman’s target. In particular, do not kino your wingman’s target.

If you are running obstacle game, remind your wingman to hurry up and timebridge and number close, so you don’t get too bored. Every PUA should be prepared to run obstacle game for at least part of the night.

If you have a legitimate target of your own, why not try to isolate each of your girls or even bounce the whole set elsewhere?

Remember, having good wing game will allow you and your wings to isolate and bounce targets that would otherwise be very difficult to do on your own (can you remember the last time you isolated or bounced a single girl out of a 2-set on your own? Yeah, didn’t think so).

So keep this guidelines in mind, and make sure all your wings know them as well. It’ll make for a much smoother night all around, and avoid any ruffled feathers that might otherwise occur.
