Default Easier to care for lawn? Is it possible?

Bellville, south of Brenham, half way between Houston and Austin on 290.
It's mostly a shady spot under some oaks in sandy soil. It's only problem
is with the prarie grass "clumps" it can't penetrate. I think the secret
is letting the grass grow long.

Do you actually live in Texas? St. Augustine requires watering every
5 or 6 days in the high summer or it will cup and attract readily an
infestation of chinch bugs. Bermuda will always win out in full sun,
but St. Augustine will win out in shade. St. Augustine will not take
over the bermuda in full sun.
