Stall event is not just an angle of attack function. Many other factors can and do come into play, such as aircraft weight [fuel load, cargo, drag, and air density, ice accumulation, etc etc]. Angle of attack indication only gets you "somewhere in the ballpark of when stall will occur". Good piloting skills, as mentioned, teach you to feel what the airplane is doing at all times.
