Weather has been finicky for all of us (I'm sure) and has really messed up my plans for sorghum-sudan the last couple of years. Plus I didn't know I had 10's of millions of rye seeds and bermuda roots buried in my soil. I did a good dose of 2-4-D several years ago and that really helped the grasses return. Also the heavy rains have helped to bring them back to the mainstream.
I have 2 bermuda patches but the rest is rye; some rye in the bermuda. I will surely continue to feed and "nature-water" the bermuda but the rest will probably go back to something with more volume once the weather settles down. I don't think I'll have another "Gotcha" hay crop as tall as the one I had a few years ago. That sucker was just too much to work, course it only got that tall because I couldn't get the weather to cooperate so that I could bring it in sooner......but the seed was true to it's claims....heavy stands, small stems, late maturing and succulent.
Oh and I forgot, the Sugar Cane Aphid invaded my regrowth that year and ruined it....as if I needed a second cutting. Never had that little sucker before and after researching and contacting TAMU ag. folks, wondered why as according to them it has been around for quite awhile.

Dad's only tractor when I was very young was the old GP. My first recollection of this tractor was when dad allowed my brother and myself to ride on the tractor with him driving. One of us would sit on the left fender (away from the clutch) and other would sit on the gas tank and hold onto the crankcase breather pipe.
