Let me mention something that no one has posted on the subject yet. I use a Woods 5' finish mower and with the cost of a new drive belt at around $65+ each...it is a no brainer that I will never cut anything over six inches high...with a belt that is not much over one half inch in thickness and pulling three blades...and never let the blades get dull.
