Mower Throwing Up Lots Of Grass Clippings After Gator Blades Installed

Hi everyone

I've got a Sears Craftsman 19HP, 42" Mower (917.20381) that I've been pretty pleased with...

I decided to install some better mulching blades (I had a set that Sears put on after we bought it) on it about a month ago and had a local tractor shop do it for me... they recommended installing Gator Blades so I went with that... all of my clothes, even in my hair...

Once I got the tractor back and took it out for a cut, it seemed to me that lots of grass clippings seemed to be shooting out of the front right of the mowing deck... I know that some clippings coming out are inevitable but I'm getting covered in them...

I had the shop take another look at the mower to see what might be wrong but they couldn't find anything... I was told that the gator blades really pulverize the grass (and I can see that since the clippings are SO small) but it just seems to me that something must be wrong...

This sort of operation with clippings coming out in a cloud can't be typical...

I've uploaded a picture of my foot after I was done cutting to illustrate what I'm seeing... I tried uploading a couple of videos but they're too big...
Any thoughts?
