[QUOTE="grannysoo, post: 710216, member: 6980"] I would lean towards bermuda, especially since you're planning on bailing some. Both have their good and bad points, however the bahia can get tough pretty quick. Bahia is a great grass to graze as long as it doesn't get mature. Grows fast, can't kill it if you tried, and an all around good grass for grazing. However, if you let it mature enough to have a good volume to bale, I think you'll find that you loose a lot of nutritional value pretty fast. I'm not saying that the cows won't eat mature bahia, they just prefer not to. You can get a good growth of bermuda and maintain a good protein level and plenty of volume. [/QUOTE]
