Sounds like you aren't using your clutch very smoothly. When you let it out fast it starts to buck because it's on the verge of stalling.

Check the spark plugs for signs of wear and see if any cylinders are worse than others.

Happens to my wife all the time. She clutches poorly/not smoothly. In her case she's giving it too much gas too soon. The whole front end shudders.

yeah try letting out the clutch slower. and at the same time keep the rpms high enough so it doesn't shake or buck lol.
