I think leading the flop to get value from JJ-KK is going to get you way more calls than check/raising. You don't have any reads on that player, and knowing your nitty style, he probably doesn't have many reads on you yet. Your table image was also most likely very tight (I could be wrong, though, please tell me if I am) and I doubt he thinks you have some kind of 87s airball often enough to call there with a PP.
If his range is truly {QQ+, AK, AQs} I think you make a lot more money leading the flop for 3/4 pot and then making smallish (1/2 pot) bets on the turn and river than you do check/raising the flop.
