Takes practice. It helps to use your mules to get 5 coins each doing the 300 kill quests and practice on those. The longer you hold it the lower your aim is going to be, so as you're falling you generally don't want to hold it for more than 1-2 seconds as you want it to take you slightly up. In the odm training you usually want to aim past the fake titan so that you can take a swing as you fly by.
If you grapple to a tree you stay attached for about 5 seconds before you actually fall off, so you can use that to plan your attack. Keep in mind if you press the grapple key again while you're already using it, it will cancel the first one (so make sure you know where you're aiming before you press it or you're just going to fail like a rock frantically throwing it hoping to catch a tree). Jumping also cancels it. So even if you've only been attached for 1 second, if you jump or press grapple again you'll immediately start falling.
So just get used to the timing for how to aim and don't make yourself fall on accident.
