Mower deck baffles

has anyone noticed that cutting wet grass sucks with this mower the baffles are made to pull the grass up while cutting it but it sticks to the deck until you slow down the power .I know cutting wet is not ideal but i have had problems with the bafflle system.

Your whole problem is trying to have the same cutting results cutting wet grass as cutting dry grass. Ain’t going to happen as decks and baffles aren’t designed to cut wet grass.

Slowing down the engine a bit is one thing I do to deal with wet grass. I go slow, watch the discharge and move at a pace that allows even discharge and no or minimal "spitting.". Single cut only and then just hit any clumps and windrows with the big backpack blower.

What mower do you have? I have a Bob-Cat with the Dura-Deck. It's ok. I like my Exmarks better but they're pretty heavily baffled too and no better cutting wet.
