You're not getting through the ball straight, and are using english to deflect into the proper hit. With a proper center ball hit, and straight stroke along the aim line, english can only reduce accuracy.
Is the Tip More Important than Deflection Considerations?

No... Percentage play and how muscle memory works are the deciders. Also, when you are on the hill and that adrenaline rush hits.... A firm stroke is gonna be about the same... A soft, floppy stroke has a tendency to BECOME a firm stroke...... At a lower tip position.... And that's how you become Jimmy Wetch, overdrawing the cue ball into the side to give Efren Reyes ball-in-hand in the final rack of the 1996 World 8 Ball Championship.
No. I mean left or right of center.
Must be. I need a lesson!
That's not good. If you need a little left or right to hit a straight-in stop shot, your stroke and/or sighting need an exorcism.
Dang...I'm realizing now I can't make a ball!
Maybe he just enjoys watching the ball spin in place.
Is that why that's been happening? See...I'm benefiting from this thread.
