Doug:

I replaced my 272 last season with a Woods RD7200 (Rear Discharge),and I would do it again in a heart beat. All other things being equal, four wheels will scalp less than two and I haven't had any problems since switching to the Woods. Everybody else has four wheels and rear discharge seems to be the "hot setup," You will not end up with old clippings in rows all over the lawn and you should be able to cut taller grass without bogging down the tractor, (on a side discharge, the left blade cuts and shuffles the grass clippings to the middle blade which cuts and shuffles to the right blade, the rear discharge cuts and drops the clippings out the back). I picked the Woods over Land Pride, Bush Hog and Befco, but would take any of these over the 261/272 (I am a big fan of John Deere, but I think that they are a little out of touch on this one). I hope this helps you.
