I've got a Simplicity that will lay down a nice stripe.

But today, while mowing at my Church, I thought I'd give the Wheelhorse 520H w/ 48 inch deck a try at it.

Here's what I got:

There's nothing a Wheel Horse can not do!  Except maybe cook dinner.  :laughing-rolling:

Highest setting on the deck. Anything lower and I get some scalping. Mowing around 3 inches and get a great cut.

I agree! Thats a fine job of mowing and striping. My front yard is not easy to lay those nice straight lines on, so I have to just go round and round.

The striping you see on baseball fields, for instance, is done by having a roller attached to the rear of the deck or reel. (if you are using a reel mower)  Mow one way and the roller lays the grass down that way, mow the other way and the grass lays down that way. It's all in the way the light hits the grass. My 312 stripes, but its the tires leaving tracks in the grass!
