[Coach K-LO]

it would be not so pretty to look at tweaked bases..... the real beauty is in the performance. That's when a tweaked base's beauty is realized.

For those of us who don't tweak, they still send $$ to get that talent on their teams, even those that DO tweak do the same thing....

I don't get as much "love" for tweaking skills (numerous titles to support my talent) but that does not stop me from helping someone learn the art. Sure, it might take some $$ out of my pocket but at least I have helped someone advance his pleasure and improved his team and his other portions of our hobby.

A.Burgess acts as if he does not tweak a base, but he does. Any time you put weight under a base and tinker with the prongs, You are in essence, tweaking the base. You may not be using a tool, but you are not using the base straight out the bag.

Tweaking, to me, enhances the hidden talent within a base. It enables you to "create" a skill player from a novice (straight from the bag) player. It's just like going to training camp or bootcamp where the daily training is designed to bring out the best in each person to do battle on it's given field of operation.
