Does this imply that I am not lifting properly, i.e. using my dominant side for the majority of the pull?
I am right handed, use a mixed grip (right hand supinated) for my heaviest set. I get much more DOMS on the right side of my lower back than the left, although the traps are about equal... scared I am setting myself up for injury.

The supinated hand has a tendency to drift from the body. If you're doing this you're likely adding strain on your right side. Keep that in mind.
I only seem like I know what I'm talking about, because I only talk about things that I know about.

^You should actually switch which side is supinate every set or rep, just to ensure balance.
