It is likely you are tightening your grip too soon in the delivery.
One way to defeat this is to have a look at your grip hand and how it is holding the cue at the end of your delivery when it is up against your chest. That will be your natural way to grip the cue and then start out your grip in exactly that way from address to rear pause to end of delivery.
In this way you will overcome any urge to turn the wrist during the delivery which will push the butt sideways either way and cause you to deliver the cue slightly crooked.
However, be aware that the Steve Davis grip IS the hammer grip except of course Steve's was much more loose but sat near the end pads of the 4 fingers, probably around the first joint of the index and second finger. But Steve kept his wrist in one plain throughout his backswing and delivery.
