Physiologically, a little bit, but do you think that they should train differently?

Except that failure is a CNS phenomenon, not muscular. Your Prof. sounds like a HIT guy. Notoriously dogmatic. Read this: http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/showpost.php?p=5088668&postcount=783

They generally involve about the same amount of musclature, but squats have a longer ROM, so they are generally superior.

Do you truly believe this? And I love this: Ummm, maybe because the preponderance of resistance-training studies use untrained subjects, or for very short timeframes (<6 weeks or so). But that isn't really the demographic here.

That's pretty fucking funny...

Good point about the backswing. The Ledbetter Swing Setter gizmo tries to teach this by encouraging a powerful, yet controlled backswing.
