I'm also getting old, but I don't have the problem on C-6 at all.

Have you gone into System->Preferences->Mouse and changed some of the
doohickeys there? I don't recall anything related to your problem, but
it may be related to Acceleration or Sensitivity? I've set my
Sensitivity to about 1/3rd off of low and acceleration to mid-range.
There's an alternative if, like me, you prefer KB anyway - <Alt>-<F8>.
It's drawback is it's not as fine-grained though. But for me it's really
faster anyway.
