Looks really, really nice Title: Re: Our field was terrible last season... Post by: Tnphil on April 25, 2015, 12:59:58 EDT I'm sure they over-seeded with rye like they do the nicer golf courses. When the rye dies out when it gets hot then the Bermuda takes over.....last year the Bermuda looked bad.

New grounds crew, maybe? :biggrin: I just assumed it was all new turf. I'm no groundskeeping expert, but it looked beyond repair at the end of last season. I wouldn't have thought they could ever get that turf in playable shape again, let alone looking THIS good. I know that pic is taken from a distance, but that looks almost Rose Bowl quality. :dunno: Title: Re: Our field was terrible last season...
