deads instead of squat?

[speese]

i have a bad shoulder and squatting hurts too much when i have to bring my shoulder back to hold the bar. instead of squats, what would be more productive as a mass exercise for my legs, regular deadlifts, sumo deadlifts, hack squat, or legpress?

I would think that leg press & hack squats - superset them ??

Dead lifts will hit your legs and many people swap deads for squats on leg days.

You can also do your squats with dumbells. I also recommend doing step ups. They're great for hitting the quad and they also give the hip flexors a really good workout.

I'd alternate Key's suggestion and deads from week to week. And on back day, incorporate some cleans.

You could also do frontal holding

I did deads and squats with leg press yesterday, BEST WOrKOUT I HAD ON MY LEGS...

I'd go with KeyMastur's advice on this one.
