When you trying to get into the mount I use my throw hand thumb to keep the other string out of the way.

Also make sure you are sticking out your pointer finger on your throw hand, and curling in your middle finger. When you are in the mount, it should basically look like you are pointing little guns sideways toward each other (one higher than the other obviously).  
You’ll get it, just practice, watch a few more videos on it.

I had some trouble with this mount too. Just keep at it, you’ll get it eventually.

…and once you do get it, it becomes incredibly easy! 🙂

Yeah, now it is easy. I can’t throw a great one yet, but I’m seeing progress. ;D
