Ford 5600 and 15 foot mower

[fredm]

Tractor data lists it at 60 pto hp. will it bog heavily with a 15foot mower in the high stuff? I have a 6 foot for the really high stuff and trimming and I want a bigger mower for openings but the 10 foot mowers seem like a waste and are hard to transport since they don't fold. the 15 foot mowers are also easier to find used.

You will be OK with short or thin grass. It will be overwhelmed with a full width cut of tall, rank growth. Of course, after the first pass, you don't need to take a full swath if you are short on HP.
