Hello Chris,
as mentioned before, a Telrad eliminates the problem associated with using the finder scope.
As far as moving the scope around to follow planets or stars, I found it useful to sort of pretend you are grabbing the star and pulling it towards the center of the FOV rather than moving the scope. You will get used to it fairly quickly.
