Trying High-Bars for the first time.  I programmed conservatively, and I clearly can bump the #s up a tad.  An old bugaboo reared it's head however.  On one of the reps during the 155X20, I got over my toes AND lost tightness at the bottom.  This always results in a low-back strain.  It's not too bad, as it happened on or around rep 8 and I was able to go to 20.  I've done this to myself a couple of times before front squatting, so I'm familiar with the problem and how bad it can get.  Should be okay to squat again when it comes around in a few days.

Otherwise, I like the high-bar squatting.
