Use proper form on the SLDL's on whatever day you work hamstrings, as this is what your main focus should be by performing SLDL's (sure your lower back and other muscles get a little workout but the focus should be on the HS's). Regular DL's work out really well for me on my back day but they hit such a large portion of my body (Hamstrings, Glutes, Lower Back, Upper Back, Traps ETC) that I have to be careful what I train the days before and after DL's...
If you want to do DL's and minimize Hamstring involvement just try partial DL's where the weight doesn't go all the way to the floor etc....
If all else fails, since you are using Contol's program, ask Control......
