Growing grass

We been trying to grow grass for years more and more tops soils all the time more and more money to put in. We went fishing to a golf course the other day and we were just amazed about their grass. After rolling around with their grass instead of fishing one of the owners in the golf course drove up he asked with a smile on his face what we were doing. And we told them our story about our bad grass. He told us to actually scatter oat seeds wait 'till it gets about a foot tall, cut it down under turn it into the ground, then plant Kentucky blue grass on top. Can't believe it we have the best grass in the neighborhood.
