Does anyone here tend to have slightly uneven foot placement when squatting. Sometimes I may need to put my right foot slightly more forward then my left foot, even though my torso is facing perfectly straight.
Is this normal, and does anyone else tend to have this?

Nope. When I set up I have my feet even, but as I start descending I move my right foot forward a bit. The squat feels odd if I don't, even though I look at my foot placement and that looks odd.
This only happens when I start loading the bar up heavy. Believe me, I have tried practicing bodyweight squats and I don't have the problem unweighted.

hmmm your situation is curious to me.
My feet my look uneven when i'm staring at the mirror. however it is actually due to the squat rack being lined up slightly crooked.
I mean a slight "offness" might be fine. but you really dont' wnat ot be repositioning on teh fly as you do your squat reps.-
