I mowed my yard yesterday with my F2680 with 60" Rear discharge deck. I had been gone and grass had gotten pretty high. Here is the way it looks with rear discharge after one pass. As high and thick as it was there would have been rowed up piles with a side discharge.
John, there are many lawns that have thicker grass that would have given issues. Here in central NY your lawn would be like a year old with those bare spots. In your area you would have to irrigate to equal our natural lawns. I'm currently mowing about every four days and taking nearly two inches at that cut off three inches. I'm hoping that it dry downs a bit and I can go out to a longer interval.
I would agree with you with your conditions that the rear discharge would work fine.
