Anyone else using it?
I'm gonna give it a try later this week starting at a low rate of .2 oz per thousand (common bermuda), and at a lower rate for St. Aug.

These pictures convinced me to go for it, and I don't really have the time to mow every 2-3 days right now.

I just put down my first application (1/2 rate) about a week and a half ago so I can't really report on much yet. I have Tifway 419.

Make sure to add some iron to your application to help with possible tip burn.

I haven’t done it yet. Strange weather, early greening followed by a stall, I have been trying to aerate the last 4 Saturdays and it rains, I’m sand leveling May 31st and June 1st so I want the grass to grow through. 46-0-0 should expedite that.

I use Solace from Regal Chemical, start around 14 oz/acre and increase through the growing season (on bermuda sports fields). Makes for a dense turf, and I time my applications before we get a wet period, to cut down on growth when we can't mow as often as we'd like. Also suppresses seed heads, which gives the fields a "grayish" look.
