Fescue, Bluegrass, and Bermudagrass Athletic Fields in Indiana

What is the best surface for athletic fields in Indiana?  To be honest, I don't know if there is a "right" answer for the best turf in the transition zone.  Here are a number of photos of different fields in Indiana.  All the photos where taken this week.

1.  Tall fescue practice football field in northern Indiana:



2. A bluegrass/ryegrass athletic field in central Indiana:


3.  A Patriot bermudagrass field in central Indiana:


All the fields are functioning well for the owner.  The challenging issue with tall fescue is how do you best overseed a tall fescue field when there is extensive spring and fall play?  Please click HERE to see a link from Purdue University in regards to tall fescue athletic fields.
