A while back I received several e-mails from guys requesting my advice on how to attract a female like me. You see, they seem to have a hard time attracting women that are into shooting and the outdoors… and I understand this.
Being that we humans aren’t whitetail deer and you can’t rub your scent on a tree to find yourself a mate, it makes things harder for guys.
I’ve decided to throw these guys a bone, and any others who need help, on how to attract such a lady. Here are essential points to follow in attracting the Katniss Everdeen for your life:
1. Confidence is key:
Now, I know I said we weren’t whitetail, but since you did mention you wanted a woman of the outdoors, I will use an analogy that caters to this community.
Women want the stud buck, bear or lion in their life. They want the alpha male, the one who walks out into the field and you know… he’s the man. However, don’t confuse this with arrogance; that is one thing women can’t stand.
2. Class not swag:
The woman who is into shooting and the outdoors is usually someone who is confident in herself. Knowing that, she will never choose a man who carries himself with “swag” and treats women as objects. A hundred times over …and over, they will choose a man who has “class” and treats them with the respect they deserve.
3. Be a man of virtue:
Living a life of virtue is much harder than living a life of vice. Showing that you are virtuous in your actions will tell a woman that you live to a moral code, you have discipline and you aren’t easily influenced by weak and petty people.
4. Don’t look, or be, desperate:
Never need someone. Always be content with the thought of being alone, that way you won’t fall for the wrong woman. Also, if you do appear desperate, that’s usually when women run for the hills… and I think it’s true for men too. However, when you do find the apple-of-your-eye, don’t ignore her.
5. My final note is, look sharp.
ZZ Top knows this and so should you; every girl goes crazy for a sharp dressed man. Guys, please put an effort into your appearance. We females aren’t shallow because we overlook the guys in sweat pants or who do the tube-sock/flip-flop combo… you look like a slob, that’s why we overlook you. If you want to attract a woman, be attractive.
Now, keep in mind this is strictly my opinion and the games of love are never set in stone. Nevertheless, these generally seem to be traits the majority of these Katniss Everdeen-like women are attracted to.
Also, take note of my use of the term “man”. The type of woman you want to attract isn’t going to be into a 30-year-old mama’s boy, who still lives at home and wets his bed. She is looking for a leader, the stud of the herd; she is looking for a “man”, not a “boy”.
Hope this helped.
Happy hunting,

Amen! Being normal today IS a sin, or you're a Jesus freak, or you're an extremist....etc.
Fine. I'm a Jesus freak abnormal celebate patriot. I'm certainly on their list!
I’ve noticed a lot of older women, who married young, had kids then divorced their husbands out there.
It’s almost like they are trying to “recapture” their youth.
Sorry girls, your youth AIN’T coming back no matter how hard you try.
AND you look silly.
No sillier than old farts who dump the wife that took care of them and the children all those years, for a younger version.
Sorry boys, your youth AIN’T coming back no matter how hard you try AND you look silly.
Put another way, some women want the financial support of the "nice guy", while having wild sex with the "bad boys" on the side. They know the "bad boy" will move on as soon as he tires of them, but still want his genes.
You hear about this a lot from women. They whine about the lack of supply of "good men" when they hit their 30's, and want guys who will support them. The same kind of guys they rejected in their early 20's in favor of the "bad boys".
The answer they don't want to hear is that the worthwhile good men found women who appreciated them in their 20's, and have no interest in high-mileage women nearing the end of their attractive and fertile years.
Similar dynamic to why job applicants who are currently working are more attractive to recruiters than the unemployed. Employer HR people figure that if you are unemployed, there's probably a reason, while if you're employed, you can't be too bad.
A lot of truth there...
Touche FRiend!
There are items with their pictures all over the Walmart.
I don’t date either, it really makes my wife mad.
You are funny.
man/woman=first order of business=great sense of humor!
I travel a lot around the country and there are significant differences in people. Major differences in how women/men act between LA, midwest, Seattle, the south, and the north east.
I want: humor, manliness/a healthy sexual appetite, intelligence/common sense, a hand-holding, touching kind of love, financial security...
I don’t want a man who makes excuses, doesn’t pay attention to what he looks like and is HEAVY into looking at/flirting with other women.
and he’d better be Conservative with a capitol “C”.
Look her up. She makes her own money.
I want to know.
I had this conversation with two of my teenage daughters today, discussing the "Captain Kirk" character. The Alpha Male who has plenty of women willing to sleep with him, has little incentive to settle down with any one women, because as soon as his current women starts giving him trouble, it's easy for him to shift to the next.
Yes, the alpha male could go after an alpha female, but for many it's just less work to bed a succession of beta females.
I’d call it more ‘WTF, will someone PLEASE grow up already?’ I’ve been waiting 45 years for it, and it’s as if I’m still in high school.
You need to teach classes! What you describe is a lost attitude from a different era.
So where are traditional, religious women?
