Happy to see this come back up...... an important point that I think got buried in my original response..... try to train on the same bars you'll be competing with.
The different bars sit differently on your back and there's a HUGE difference in the way you squat with a 55 lb squat bar versus a 65lb bar...... with a thinner bar you can ride the bar whip out of the hole if you descend fast. With a stiffer bar it'll staple you if you do that.
