Are you sure you need to worry about this?  As long as you are finishing strong does it matter what the weight "feels" like off the floor.  I would say as long as you are holding your positions and putting yourself into position for an explosive finish, you're fine.

When you miss a lift is it because the bar was too heavy off the floor and therefore, you never got it moving?
