The last few flights the aircraft has been exhibiting a vibration from either the engine or prop on take off.
I have tried different TO techniques but it is somewhat intermittent. Some times slight to moderate vibration type shutter and sometimes no shutter at all.
I was thinking it was something I was doing wrong like TO to early so I extended my TO on the ground but it continues to happen to some degree.
I have an annual coming up so is there anything I should be looking for like bolts or do you think it is poor TO's. Something is wrong my gut says it is the airplane but I always question my flying technique?????

First things that I would check.
Out of round, or balance, tyres shakeing the landing gear.
Loose engine mount to fuselage bolts which need regular torque setting as they go through multiple layers of different substances,
Prop not cycleing to flat pitch properly, caused by governer, poor crankshaft oil port alignment.
Loose or improperly mounted cowlings.
