TifEagle in Bobcat greens

Below is a photograph of #16 green on the Bobcat course 3-weeks after we stopped all maintenance in preparation for the Bobcat course improvement project.  You may be able to spot some geometric shapes of living grass surrounded by dead turf.  Well....in August 2014 as season was approaching we had some weak areas on the 16th green and decided to plug the areas of struggling Floradwarf with TifEagle from our Bear course nursery.  The living areas you see below are the exact areas we plugged with TifEagle, the grass we are using on the new Bobcat greens.  This is just another example of the inferiority of Floradwarf and further justification for improving the sustainability of our courses with the Bobcat improvement project.
