Is there a special technique or tool for consistently placing drywall screws correctly?
I'm using a standard Dewalt DWD115K (with no auto-stop mechanism) so I'm usually paranoid of going too deep with screws… which results in stopping the screw before it's completely set in — and then having additional trouble properly sinking it after that.
I thought maybe a screw guide might help but it didn't… Is this just something where practice makes perfect?

Buy a $5 drywall dimpler, the bit will slip off the screw head when the screw is at the appropriate depth.
