So we re-seeded our front yard for the winter.  We 25lbs of Pennington Annual Rye Grass from Home Depot.

It cost about $20 bucks.  Mow the grass on the lowest setting and bag it.  then run your sprinkler about 2 mins.  This will give the seed a wet bed when he lands.  Plus it helps see your tire tracks from the spreader.

Put the seed on thick, if you use a scotts spreader set it to like 13.  We watered ours for 4min every 2 hours until it grew.
