1 inch MAX with rotary mower twice a week.

You'd need reel mower to go lower without scalping them...

If you get a reel mower, you can go from 1/16 to 1/2 inch with great results. When mowed like that it will look like a putting green. Anyone can do that at home with a reel mower.

Thanks for your ideas on bermuda height, we are near a 100% organic golf course and they keep their greens beautiful.
