Bent certainly produces the best low cut surface for golf and bowls and it is a beautiful grass. Management of this grass in humid and/or hot conditions can be very tricky. That being said there are plenty of courses here in Adelaide that have bent greens so it is do-able. I have spoken to a couple of superintendents at courses about various turf related topics and they have been pretty happy to share some knowledge. Might be worth a call to get a baseline for the best steps to get it established through winter and ready for summer.
