Most have had the best luck with the oem blade (from what I have researched a gator blade did not perform any better than a stock blade). You will need to install a mulching fan which will give you the best results. I have an staggered wheel deck, I did to mulch without the fan, did not work, installed fan and no issues, will keep deck pretty clean even in wet grass conditions. Basically without the mulching fan the deck will build up with clippings until it starts throwing chunks of clippings.

Ah OK - THX for the info lewb... currently when I cut grass I get grass build up underneath mower and it does throw chunks of clippings as you describe.
I'll try the new OEM blade and mulching fan route. CHEERS!
