I just started
I have been doing stiff legs with low weights. I really fell it in my lower back. Don't feel it in the Hams or Traps. I have always worked them seperatly in the past.
Is the bent leg version better on the lower back. I am gonna have to stick with the low weights until my lower back gets up to par. I feel like a girly man in the gym doing deads with 2 50lb dumbells.

Dude tell me how? Never see guy's in the gym doing deadlifts. One or two guys every once and awhile. I never did them because I wasn't sure of the form. I would hate to throw out my back

i'd say that stiff legged probably hits your lower back a little bit more as you're pivoting at your waist during the movement. at the bottom of a regular dead you're pretty much squatted down, thus hitting your quads as opposed to your hams.
why don't you toss the DBs and just load up the olympic bar to 100lbs? you're going to outgrow the DBs anyways(assuming your DBs don't go up to 150-200lb range), and you might as well get the form down with the BB.
