Tweak 102 2K7, Can we learn what the masters of tweak really know?

[Pirate Rick]

Biglock my friend,
Yes it is true i was honered with a day long "tweekout" session with mr peotros, however even that does not (or did not) make me a tweek "master".
He showed me the hows and whys of tweeking, the IMPORTANCE of knowing when enough is enough.. and another important thing he bestowed me with was the desire to do the best i could and to relize that i am not going to "GET IT" right away, it will take awhile.
I spent the whole day picking his brain, tweeking bases and just learning as much as i could, but when it was all over the MOST important thing i learned was to keep practicing because to quote vince "no matter how good you think you are, someone out there will be better"
i have learned that balance is important, to much power and no speed might work for a play or two, but if your team has true balance it makes it alot harder to figure them out. and each kind of base requires a different approach to tweeking depending on what it is for and what kind of base it is.
All in all lock, PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE...and when your done with that PRACTICE some more.....and did i mention to practice ?

Going along with jimbo and what don said. it really takes time to tweak and adjust theses bases how you want them. Its going to be blood, sweat, and tears.and maybe some long nights to try and master this tweaking stuff. Just try to be humble as you can at your craft,and when you get the chance to meet other coaches at these special events they can show you extra pointers on what you are doing right and wrong. Thats how i learned from pratt, don, dearell,and lavell shelton. When ive had the chance, i played and played hard most of these cats up here know me and know that my craft is armed and dangerous. There was times where my bases i thought were so strong that i had shut everyone out in the first rounds, but by the second rounds the game was even. You cant be afraid to put your craft on the board because you will never how good you are in tweaking until you go head to head with some of these guys. You just have to have that killer instinct even when your bases are garbage.
