Hey Doug
Separate the setting of the back from the actual pull. They are two separate steps. You're not really getting your back set to begin with, so there's a bunch of looseness that pulls you out of position when you break the bar off the ground.
Squeeze the chest up so to get the back flat and all of the slack out of your arms and the bar. You should feel like your arms want to rip out of the shoulder joint. Then break the bar off the ground as a separate step.
