You just need to practice to hit the string. Try having your pointer finger close to the yo-yo and swinging the yo-yo back and forth a little before you push the string. This might help you aim better, but just remember to keep practicing and you’ll get it.

use the momentum of the yoyo swinging toward you and try holding your finger still and letting the yoyo do the work

Keep the strings straight. Like some people said use the momentum and aim for the string.

~Be one with the string.~ Lol
