If your Polar Scope is not aligned with the Polar Axis of your mount will never point at the SCP. A Drift Align will get you close enough to spot on everytime.
Do a search on this forum and you will find a mountain of information about Drift Aligning.

Thanks JohnG, have ordered an illuminated EP as a backup, mainly thought to centre the target star for the 3 star allignment. Was using a 3.5mm & thought that would be enough...oh what a hobby
