Before you start digging try watering. Water at the time people
usually use your lawn for a short cut and water until the grass has 1"
of water a week, then cut what grows. A bit more water won't hurt
the grass if you need to turn it on to discourage someone's presence.

Soil compacts MORE when it's wet and walked/knelt on.
