I'd say half is the number I approach. I gauge interest in eye contact and will go up to the group after I get at least one indication of interest. Admittedly this is one of the few things from "the game' I still adhere too. After a few drinks and if I am in a good enough mood, I'll hit a 100% approach rate. It all depends on how good I am feeling that night. some nights can be pretty awful too.
To the post below, I think more people are moody than you might think. Every time I go out, it seems that 80% of guys just sit there. Most really don't go out and try and talk to women. As I said, sometimes I am not feeling it either, its only natural. best thing you can do is when you feel in the zone is to go out there and socialize.

For me, it depends more on the location.
Bar/club? I'll approach 8 out of 10 times.
I'll usually say whatever comes to mind. I make it a point to open with something unusual in order to avoid the normal boring conversation like "Hey, how are you, what school do you go to, where are you from" etc.
During the day? Probably 1 out of 10 times.

It all depends on my mood. Wish I wasn't so moody but I can be. ALso I wouldn't say that others were wuss outs as much as I just didn't happen to do it. I open with whatever comes to mind at the time or "Hey"

This^ Nightgame, I get down and on it. Daygame is my problem.
I see a trend going on here. Seems like most guys suppress their day game and being it out only to social environments (clubs, bars, etc). I have this problem myself too, and now I know I'm not alone. Unfortunately, the women in these venues aren't good quality. In fact, they're some of the lowest-quality women around (unless you want just a (fvck buddy or a large order of STD's), they're also mostly attention wh0res.
I encourage all of you to start working on your day game. It instantly sets you apart because she doesn't expect this stuff to happen during the day. I also read an article and some stats that women dream or idealize of meeting their good boyfriend or similar in an every-day situation. It must appear as if "it happened naturally." This is why you when you want to bring a woman home you do it with the excuse of a movie, showing her something, etc. You NEVER say "hey, let's go to my room and have some sex," right? Of course not!
Now that I know I'm not alone, it's going to be easier to tackle this one down.
I don't have enough time or experience to start a let's-do-this-together thread, but, as someone who is the same situation, it would be helpful to hear what we are doing so that others can learn from what we do and we can progress as men and individuals.
