[QUOTE="1982vett, post: 1296227, member: 7795"] LOL...I read the post this morning. I'm kind of on the fence on this on today. I think both would be a good choice and picking one of the two... I'm about 50/50 right now. I've got roughly 15 acres I've put off seeding for a long time since I can't count on decent weather to get anything established and right now I wouldn't be able to make a choice either. I'd say you may need to figure out what "space" you want your choice to fill. Hay, summer grazing, or fall grazing. I'd say a plus on the B-Dahl is "stock piling" for late fall grazing. I do this with some native pasture I have. If your bermuda gets the moisture and ya hit it with fertilizer and lime, bermuda is going to shine for grazing or hay. NovaTech would probably pick B-Dhal. Fenceman, I'd pick Klein over Giant Bermuda. Giant appears to grow more upright and doesn't seem to spread well. It does seem to hang on pretty well in a drought, but it's reseeding and spreading ability seems to be lacking. My attempt in 2011 for both Klein and Cheyenne was a total failure. The 2012 Klein came through with a decent stand. Common bermuda has taken back the weak spots. [/QUOTE]
