Hello…My name is guillermo, I live In Caracas-Venezuela (South America) and I am putting together a sport complex that will have a comercial Driving range a 6000sq ft putting green and a small 9 holes pitch and putt (around 85,000sq ft). Major challenges… What type of grass I want to use for the putting green and for the pitch and putt..? Temperatures in Caracas are like average of 84F year round, a small rainny season. Sod is not an option because I can not find it locally and it is very expensive. I will have irrigation system. I am debating to either use L-93 Bentgrass or some type of Bermuda (seeds) that could give me some green quality…? any HELP or advice???
