I hear you Matt, its disappointing when the advice provided is not correct. However I feel in this case it comes down to experience. Obviously if you're make Az adjustment and the star drifts faster, then you've got to adjust the other way. The best thing you can do is make large adjustments, then slowly progress to smaller, precise movements. This allows you to get a feel for how far you need to make an adjustment to counter act the drift. Its simply trial and error. After several nights under your belt, drift align becomes "childs play"/thoughtless process.
Of course, we've discuss this before but you can also use software to assist in polar alignment. It typically improves the accuracy by a considerable amount when drift aligning with a camera.
