I bet you could even find demonstrational videos on youtube. The hardest thing about bumping is learning when to turn the key. There are people who can bump locks while constantly putting very light pressure on the key, but it's more reliable to learn to turn the key at the precise moment you hit it. You're right in that it's just practice. Try not to over think it.
