The shift between gears is fine (well, except from 4th to 5th, and 12th to 13th is good at 1300rpm and after warmed up).
It's from neutral to either forward or reverse that is usually harsh- it goes from stop to go.
Suppose I could get into the habit of shifting down to 5th before sliding into N or P.
edit: This is a 1996 8100, (not a 20 or 30 series), in case that makes a difference.
I'd have to look up the address number but I think you can change what gear you start out in.
Use clutch or not? JD 8100
