Straight and conventional, only way to go.

My place doesn't like me doing sumo. Bums me out.

I use a hex bar if I'm doing a work out with more reps.

I disagree. Weight is centered so your form will be off.

Straight bar always. Never liked the hex bar for deadlifting.

Straight but I do like hex just been years since I have done it.

Use both. 2x a month for each.
Hex bar for higher reps

I find people who do like hex also can't seem to change a tire.

Straight. I’ll lift conventional for months then switch to Sumo for a few months. No longer really interested in progressing in dead’s though. It’s just my staple maintenance lift.

Started using the hex bar when my low back started giving me hell.
It’s definitely easier on the low back.

Regular up to 405 then hook grip. Switch if my thumb is hurting.
