6' finish mower

I mow with a Woods RD7200 (Rear-discharge, 6') mower. I cut lawn grass at 3-1/2" and pasture grass at 7". The pasture is usually knee-high. I usually cut in second gear. I find 3rd to be too hard on the innards (mine, not the tractor's).

I'm the only one who has a problem with overheating, not the '51 8N I use.

This last weekend JerryU and Tyler(MD) were at my place here in N.Y., both these clowns drove my 50 8n with my 6' C.T. finishing mower, they both mowed quite a bit of grass, Jerry said that my 6' C.T. mower seemed to cut better than the 5' king kutter he used behind his 9n, now, is this because of the different brands? or 9n/8n ?, or is Mi. grass meaner than N.Y. grass?? who knows.
Anyway, I mow 5 acres once a week usually in 3rd gear with no problems.
hope this helps
