I'm with the others on this. Shear pins are supposed to shear before you break the gears and cause other damage. You might check your bolt/pin holes. If they are wallowed out of round with a lot of play and wiggle room then that will help them shear easier. Sharpen your blades and make sure the mower has plenty of gear lube in it. Dull blades creates more drag and lack of lubrication can do the same. Your mower gears could be binding up from a lack of lubrication or the bearings could be going out causing them to bind up. You can see how easy it turns by hand.
