It seems I now get an email every other day from Girls Out West with links to random sites. I was skeptical but thought maybe the links might be tied to the site somehow and that I could unsubscribe from there. Although the links don't work (odd in itself), what concerns me is that the links all have my email address AND my full name in them. It appears that GOW has sold my information to spammers. I just know I'm not too thrilled with this at all and would hope a site rep would respond to this comment.
I haven't been able to access the site for over a day now so there's no way to contact the site to find out what's what. Hopefully they'll chime in here. All in all, a surprisngly disappointing experience...
I think this is a site for women not for men.
Nearly all videos and photo sets are the opposite of sexy (even the sex scenes).
And the videos are very slooooow, nearly impossible to watch online (stream).
Is Abby Winters better, or is it also a site for women?
I think ATK Galleria and Nubiles are better sites for men.
OK - I just joined the site and so far I am NOT happy. I've never had an issue with FreeDownloadManager on any site before and this 200kb average speed is busting my balls. I don't LIKE 2 1/2 hours to download a single HD scene. On top of that, the site just crashed Opera. I went to that because the signup didn't work on Firefox.
General theme:
This is a genuine amateur site. You will not see fake boobs, bottox lips and bleached hair on this site. Instead, you will find real-life, girl-next-door kind of women. And this comes with all the consequences of realistic imperfection.
Scenes: girlsoutwest.com offers solo, girl/girl and boy/girl scenes in videos and/or picture sets. Each scenes is split into 1-4 parts and sometimes one complete compilation with all the parts in one big file. All updates after December 2009 are coming in high resolution, which means
1920 x 1080 .mp4, 3500 bps
1280 x 720 .wmv
1280 x 720 .mp4
as well as
1024 x 576 .wmv
1024 x 576 .mpg
The quality of the high res videos is very good
1080i files are about 300-500mb for one part and 1,5-4 gb for a complete scene.
Older updates are coming in 640x480 .mpg and .wmv format
At the moment, there are about 160 high res girl/girl videos, 160 high res solo videos and 50 high res boy/gilr videos. Keep in mind, that one video means a part, not a complete scene.
The picture sets are coming in 2000x1333 resolution .jpg's and can be downloaded in one .zip file.
Pro's
* The site offers genuine, non-scripted and non-staged, non-mechanical scenes. You'll find a lot of kissing, foreplay, caressing and playful sex.
* No fake tits, no bottox, no fuck-me-shoes, the models are just as real as you can get.
* None of the pictures are photoshopped!!!!
* Scenes are well shot, usually good lighting and atmosphere.
* Servers are stable and support download managers.
Con's
* Navigation is a bit clumsy to put it nicely.
* File formats, especially of the complete scenes, are a bit messy, some of the files are .mp4, some are .m4a and I even downloaded a .mov file.
* The update/video denotation is and inconsistent and casual.
* Many scenes don't have a complete scene download.
Bottom line: girlsoutwest.com is a jewel in the rough. In many ways, it's superior to sites like abbywinters. If you're tired of glamour, sterile high-budget productions and if you're not affraid to see women as they *really* are, I highly recommend this site. However, be prepared to spend some time digging through the inconsistency and navigation inconvenience.
I was an enthusiastic supporter of this site in the past but one thing that always bothered me was that videos were being published in bits and pieces (part 1, part 2, part 3) rather than as a whole. I could understand this way of doing things when most Porn Users were still on dial-up or ADSL but most of us are on broadband now and there should be a choice of downloading a whole movie for those with a faster speed. Is there such a choice? Tell me yes and I will be back!
I was a member 6 months back and was put off by the clumsy outfits and granny underwear. Not lately ! There are some skanky party dresses, nice body tees, and other great tight outfits. There are new models with wonderful skin, an Indian model with silky smooth brown skin ! If you haven't been here lately, it's time to take a month to take in the beauty. Plus the girls laugh together before getting into it...
This isn't abby winters, but it is a close second. There are also new (720) HD videos that are quite large but full of detail.
As I'm a bit confused about the low ratings of the latest reviews I wanted to check out how girlsoutwest.com has developed over the last few years. I know that site from the old days and it used to different than others. Surely unique because of the efforts Annie has always put into making her site a fun place to be.
The thing that made me sad was to see regional pricing when you want to become a member using the join page but if you order via epoch.com you get a lower price as a European. Guess I'll have to come back soon to GOW in order to review it for PU.
Just to let the fellow PUs know I used to exchange a lot of mails with Annie the owner of GOW a few years ago. I might have a tough time in order to be as objective as possible.
Okay - I've heard things about GOW like messmer's "Abby's with spice before, and I'm definitely all about amateurs, so I'm pretty sure this is going to be my next signup. But I am curious about a few things.
I didn't see any mention of a download limit here and couldn't find anything on their tour about it, so... is there one?
What's the watermark look like? Is this one of those sites that likes to scream "This is ours!"?
Is it safe to assume it's download manager compatible? Along with that, what are the server speeds like?
TBP indicates that there are no full-length videos, so I'm curious how the scenes are broken up and what the average file sizes are.
This is my third time with this site and disillusionment is starting to creep in. Only five days into the new subscription and I am all caught up because updates have been minimal.
There are normally two listed for every day (one picture set, one video), problem is that the video update is simply another segment and not the whole. Sometimes it is even a re-mastered segment of an old video.
Having been a member of many other sites in the meantime it is really starting to annoy me that a complete video still isn't available with one click. If they want to drag out their updates that way, fine, but why couldn't old videos be combined and available as a whole.
Many of the new models, too, (and there aren't that many) are not as appealing as those of the past. THAT might be a matter of personal taste but this site, in my eyes, has gone from WOW to ho-hum. Too bad because it was my favorite. I attempted to change the score on my previous review but it is past its editing date and I don't feel much like writing a new one, so consider my previous score lowered by ten points.
Still quite respectable, still recommended to Amateur lovers who haven't visited the site before but I have tired of it and it will be my last visit.
A comment rather than a review because, looking back at my previous efforts, I find that in my initial rush of excitement at having found something unusual I tend to give sites a higher rating than they deserve .. in my subjective opinion, of course.
My first impression of GOW is WOW: Abby Winters with spice! I couldn't find glamor and I love that! The models are of the next door, amateur variety and if some aren't as pretty as many might prefer they are fine with me because of their very ordinariness.
When it comes to posing there's no coyness on the part of the model nor attempt by the photographer to create "artistic" nudes. The poses and talk are often raunchy. It is an anti-pornography site (according to Annie, the webmaster/mistress) because it shuns the artificial glamor (glistening, tanned bodies, fake overblown breasts etc.) of most porn sites. I know that when it comes to a preference to see natural girls presented in a natural setting I'm with her all the way and wish her lots of success. I know it is the first time that I am actually tempted to commit myself long term to any site. The next week or two will tell!
BTW, one extra bonus for me: the picture sets are huge and for once many pics have been taken in a "landscape" format which I prefer. This allows me to weed out the "portraits" and still end up with a continuous set taking the model from fully clothed to completely naked. But, as stated, that's MY bonus, you may not care.
