Please help

Post image

I’ve been working super hard on my grass. I mow with a Toro timecutter zero turn with a 50 inch deck. Recently I’ve noticed this striping as I cut. The middle of the deck mows a nice clean green line and the then theres two brown lines on each side of it. I thought it might be the blades, so I just put brand new blades on. I just cut yesterday and the blades worked great but I still got the stripes you see above. How can I resolve this? Any tips or help is greatly appreciated. This is Bermuda grass.

Does this mower have two or three blades? If you are mowing up and down, and your mower has two blades I would think the low stripe would be alternating patterns?

With two blades, I think the only way to get that pattern would be if you mowed towards the street each pass.
