"So many people say they don't even "feel" like they are towing something" Any time you tow something you feel secondary bounces from the trailer as the trailer axle hits a bump. The phrase "I don't feel like they are towing something", is more in reference to handling, with larger TV's something acceleration and stopping, but not the secondary bounce. Most TV's you will have to accelerate slower and stopping with brakes adjusted at slow speeds will be about normal, but at higher speeds the distance will increase.

A WDH will decrease the secondary bounce feeling because the camper will use the shocks and struts of the TV. But you will still feel the bounce.

Also, the hitch sound like it might be high. The trailer should be level or slightly lower, up to 1 inch lower at the tongue.
