It’s not just braking to be on the drops although I find it helps, but I get better control of the steering, grip and can move my weight around easier on faster turns to get my grip.

Are your brake levers too far out as you can sometimes adjust them?
The brake levers on all my bikes are adjusted just right for me.

But if you say you can’t brake using the drops then won’t an adjustment help or is it set perfectly fir the hoods and you just never use the drops?
