Sounds like you are in the market to buy a "Bush Hog" type mower....!!!
Get the largest one you can reasonably use behind your tractor...
Either pull-type, or 3-point...
In very Tall grass and weeds, you will be over-lapping, as the right tractor wheel tramps the stuff down, and the mower will not pick it up...

I can run my 6' Bush Hog with my 1962 JD-"B" with no problems....varying from 2nd to 4th gear...
Hope this helps you...!!
Ron.
