Answer: You just have to know your car and it's gearing...You need to know exactly how much the rpms drop between the gears. If you have to tug, you're doing it wrong; it should just slip right in.
Also, if you apply these practices to clutched shifting, your passengers won't even be able to tell your car is a 5-speed. Your shifting will be smoother than an automatic.
