Rye, blue, fescue, and bent.


Here (StL), it's:

Tall Fescue (rough)
Zoisia (fairways, tee boxes, & close rough)
Bent (greens)

Sounds very nice!

Man this has been a very strange growing season thus far up here.

We went from almost record temps and drought this summer, to eight inches
of rain in August so far, from one extreme to the next. Some are flooded in
the Mansfield area.

Chinch bug and dollar spot out the ying-yang now. Too soon to say what the
white grub population will be like. I'm hoping all this rain lately will
slow the chinch down a bit.
