One tip - instead of trying to memorize the distances on 100 some-odd different penalties, memorize which ones are 10-yarders. It is then relatively obvious which of the rest are 5, and which are 15.
You should, however, read and reread the section(s) on where a penalty is marked off from. That is USUALLY intuitive, but many years of watching on Sundays will cause you do to this wrong on occasion.
