I love to take really tight shots like this, but the problem is I can never get them to be clear enough. I either always sharpen them to much or not enough. Can you guys give me some advice. Feel free to play around with the pic I provided, if you would like the original let me know. Thanks.

It's a great pic.
From the original, try:
USM 0.5, 250, 0
increase the 250 if needed. If you find these settings too much then try:
USM 0.4, 400, 0
increase the 400 if needed. One of these two settings should work nice.
Finally, use Neatimage (or similar) to blast the noise.
If you'd like me to try the orig, PM me and I'll give you the email addy.

Alfred I like yours. When I tried it the second time I used the USM setting you said to try, the only thing different I did is I used those settings after sharpening the image. When I use USM should I not use sharpen?-Ralph Duenas

That's right.
The USM IS the sharpening. Don't use the "sharpening" tool in my method. Take your original, play with the levels until you're happy with that, resize it to 1024x.... and then do USM 3 times like I described. (You can also, to put the icing on the cake, deselect the sky by using the lasso selector before you use the USM).
If 3 or 4 times USM still leaves you with a soft picture, it means that your original shot isn't sharp...
Good luck!
