Do some searching, in here, and google, on 'drift alignment'.... it isn't hard once you get used to it.
I also think that tracking at the pole successfully is nigh on impossible.

A better test of your alignment is to centre a star near Dec 0, and watch if it drifts in the eyepiece.... (which is the premise underlying drift alignment too).
