Default 1200 Mowing Speed

Howdy folks. I just read through a post where a new 106 owner was asking about reducing gear ratios, and there were some good answers there. In my case, being used to mowing with hydros (except for my ford tractor and a bushhog), I noticed that even in first gear at WOT, it seems a little fast. I can see the beauty of having good sharp blades if your mowing that fast. I dont have the creeper attachment. Is the creeper attachment the best option for going slower? Reducing the throttle doesnt seem like a good answer, our grass is pretty demanding when it gets thick! I just need to slow down a little to mow the thicker growth. I guess I could just jump on one of the hydros, but this new 1200 is too much fun! Thanks, TB
