Clutch problem?

Pickup is a 94 f150 with the m5r2 tranny. It has a new slave cylinder, clutch, and the flywheels was ground. Slave cylinder has around 5,000 miles on it and the clutch has 1,000 on it. The clutch just doesn't feel right to me even tho I have bleed the heck out of it using the procedures on here and in my Haynes book.

If I am sitting still and have it idling and slowly let the clutch out it starts grabbing when the pedal is over halfway out. If I start moving like normal by giving a bit of gas and letting the clutch out it seems like it grabs good and then kinda releases a bit as the pedal is coming out and then grabs good again. It makes getting going pretty jerky. I don't ever remember it acting like this before and I've owned the pickup since 2001.

Anyone think I have maybe a master cylinder problem, or maybe its just me?

when i still had my old tranny in it did that (new one still isn't in) but sometimes it would sometimes it wouldn't, could it be you?
try it without thinking so hard on it.. when i wouldn't think about it so much it wouldn't do it; when i would think about it real hard it would do it, i always thought it was me...
