So I bought a small bag of Bermuda grass and did a couple test plots in the yard, one in one of the mostly shaded area, two in the little front yard that gets a good 6-8 hours of sunlight, three in another part that is 100% sunlight and a few more just over the yard.

I still think that Zoysia is the best choice, I've researched it and I found that if I were to buy the seed for the lawn it would be about $500-600 plus all the labor of putting down. If I went that route I was thinking of killing all the grass then bringing in truck loads of dirt in and spreading it then putting the seed down. otherwise I found that it would cost roughly another $200-300 more for sod.

I'm just torn on what to do, It was such a terrible looking lawn, then when I moved in I turned it around and managed to screw it up.
