Does it seem as if the dating pool is getting smaller and smaller? The statistics show that it isn't, but it may seem that way if you keep looking for love in all the wrong places.

If you want to score a date, you might need to mix things up a bit. Skip your usual bar and venture out to new places and make sure you go where you know the girls will be. But, be aware that there are certain places that just aren't right for picking up girls, like funerals or family gatherings--this is only okay in Wedding Crashers.

So, wondering where to go to find women?

Outdoor activities and events this summer will be full of single girls just waiting for you to talk to them. Hang out by the lake at the park or get a group together and hit your local amusement park. If you go somewhere with a group of friends, though, make sure to let girls know you are single and on the prowl by talking to as many girls as possible. If you stick too closely to your buddies, you'll look unapproachable.

Concerts can be great places to meet girls, but the type of concert you choose is key. Make sure to pick an artist whose following consists mostly of women, that way the ratio of men to women in the crowd will be in your favor. Be aware, however, that girls often travel in packs to events such as these, so you may have to win them all over if you want to get just one girl's digits.

If you are invited to a wedding, by all means, go and have fun, and get a number or two while you're at it. You may think that the concept of hooking up at a wedding is something that Hollywood has glorified to bring in more money. But, it actually is a great place to meet hot, single women. Sit down next to her during dinner, ask her to dance, or even offer to get her a drink from the bar.

A holiday party/BBQ is one of the best places to meet women. Everyone is in the holiday spirit, and the mood is usually light and friendly. Plus, with so many holidays and party-worthy events throughout the year, you'll have tons of chances to chat up a hot girl. If she is empty handed, offer to grab her a drink from the bar.

Last, but certainly not least, are charity and/or cultural events. These can be tricky, but usually, beautiful, classy women often attend these types of events, so you know you'll find someone who's cultured and sophisticated. Just don't pretend you have art expertise or mega bucks to drop on a good cause, she can easily find out if you're lying. Be yourself, and you'll end up going home with a hottie on your arm.
