More like using the grip during the throws. Some throws you need to pull an opponent down, with others pull up, and with a resisting opponent, it's just kinda tough.

Once you start to learn more techniques, you'll start to get the feel of attacking or even just short feinting pulls with your grips to get someone going in the direction you actually want to throw them. So, as far as starting out, the sooner you can group together a small bunch of techniques that you're pretty comfortable with that attack different directions, the better. eg. you can't get your o-soto, so you change directions and go with harai-goshi.
It's hard to land big single attacks, for sure.
The more judo you do the more the timing and feeling of when and how to move just starts to become second nature, and your resisting opponent starts using that effort against themselves. I've been at it for about a decade (with a lengthy break in between) and some days I feel like a world beater when it comes to that... most days, still not so much.

I don't want to sound like a Judo noob, but Masahiko Kimura has to be one of them.
