Hi Keith...
I never marked (re-marked) the compass since I have easy-peasy view of Polaris...
What I did do, to make things highly repeatable, was place flat patio bricks in the yard, with marks for where the feet should go so as to ensure repeatability...
I'm not at all certain how (if?) my method would work without a direct view of Polaris.... have to think about that...
Sometimes, I am brought to my knees with awe and wonder that we've been provided with such a gift as Polaris - so very close to the CNP - in OUR lifetimes... truly a gift.
I'm not familiar with Tom O's "stalk"... what is that all about (he says BEFORE he does any Internet research!)...
clear enough skies
