Hello from a fellow iowan. I myself live in Ankeny.
From what I read I think that you need to develop muscle memory, which takes time and practice. (I am no pro though, +20 handicap)
Not sure what area you are from, but hope to see you out on the field.
I play at least two times a week(weather permiting).
So if you see a guy with a "Yoda" head cover, thats me. (I have not seen anyone with the same cover)
