Anyways, I had been getting a pulse and shudder when braking at higher speeds over the last month or two, with it getting especially bad over the past few weeks. I figured I warped the hell out of my front rotors and wasn't really too concerned because I have a new set of Mountain front rotors waiting to go in and I planned to swap when the weather would cooperate.
Well I went ahead and changed over to my summer wheels recently and figured I'd take a quick look at my front brakes to see what was going on but not swap yet because I didn't have the time. I didn't notice anything obvious but my driver side axle nut caught my eye because it had come unstaked! I go to look at it and I could turn it with my fingers!
I couldn't believe it. 
I tightened it down, restaked it and went for a drive. The brake shudder was almost completely gone. Since I've still got a little shutter when braking from higher speeds I figure that the problem caused my front rotors to warp slightly or I cooked my wheel bearing
(I think it is the rotors though).I guess the moral of the story is that when you experience brake shudder and pulsing in the pedal, check your axle nuts too. It could be the problem.
