The phrase almost certainly omitted a word, probably "years," before "of". Or it could have been "lots", but my bet is on "years."

I also believe that "price" should have been "prize."

It is my understanding that the "of" in this sentence is incorrect. You're right, "it takes practice to..." is what it should be.
