Your blades either need to be replaced or sharpened quite a bit. Either that or your cutter is set too high and needs to be lowered.
Are you sure the belt is on correctly?.
Yes. Grass that is longer or denser in texture takes more work to mow, and a larger tractor may be of benefit. However, most lawn tractors will mow almost all types of grass.
Your lawn mower may leave clumps of grass behind if the grass is too long or wet, the mower blades are dull, or the mower is set too low.
There are many things one can do with tractors. With a small lawn tractor, one can mow a lawn, flatten the grass, or even plow snow. With a farm tractor, one can plow fields, plant fields, or harvest fields.
You have the wrong blades installed - they are just a tad too short for your application and leave that trail of uncut grass down the middle. I had the same problem until I bought a set of blades that were 1/4" longer.

If you leave leaves in the fall on your lawn, they will die and you will have patches of dead grass on your lawn next season
If you cut your own grass and leave the cut grass on your lawn it acts like a self fertilizer
To effectively use a mulching lawn tractor to maintain your lawn, mow regularly at the recommended height, ensure the blades are sharp, and overlap each pass slightly to ensure even coverage. Additionally, avoid mowing wet grass and vary your mowing pattern to prevent soil compaction.
Is it as you are mowing or as you leave it sit there? Obviously the lawn will die if you leave the lawnmower sit outside which deprives grass of sunlight and nutrients. If you are talking about the grass dying as you are mowing, it is probably too early to be mowing the grass. This has happened to me when I mow the grass to early in the spring or I cut freshly seeded grass.
A mulching blade on a lawn mower shreds the grass so that it can easily decompose right on the lawn and nourish the lawn. They say using a mulching blade all mowing season allows you to skip one fertilizer feeding. I've never understood why people prefer to bag up the grass and send it to a landfill. Maybe they don't like dealing with the bits of grass left in the lawn.
To effectively maintain your lawn during drought conditions, consider cutting the grass higher to promote deeper root growth, mow in the evening to reduce stress on the grass, and leave grass clippings on the lawn to retain moisture. Additionally, water your lawn deeply but infrequently to encourage strong root systems.
