THE ORIGIN
IronCutter Elite Hybrid Bermudagrass™
IronCutter™ was discovered in 2007 and developed in Oklahoma through a private breeding program led by renowned turf breeder Charles Taliaferro, following his retirement from Oklahoma State University.
Dr. Taliaferro’s career at OSU produced industry-defining Bermudagrass cultivars such as Patriot, Latitude 36, NorthBridge, and Riviera. IronCutter™ was conceived as a next-generation hybrid, building on the genetic foundation and performance standards established by this work.
In 2013, IronCutter™ entered U.S. NTEP trials, where it demonstrated strong performance across multiple locations and evaluation criteria, confirming its adaptability and reliability for high-performance turf use.
While not genetically related to Tahoma 31, IronCutter™ remains part of Dr. Taliaferro’s breeding lineage through his final doctoral student, Yanqi Wu, now Head Breeder at OSU. Its name reflects an anglicized translation of “Taliaferro,” honoring the breeder’s Italian roots.
DATA AND APPLICATIONS
INDEPENDENT TRIAL RESULTS (NTEP)
IronCutter™ has been tested across multiple turf scenarios, including high-stress and extreme growing conditions, through independent U.S. NTEP trials.
Its performance makes it a preferred choice for golf courses and sports fields, where consistency, durability, and recovery are critical.
Why IronCutter™
- Fine and vertical leaf texture and rapid lateral growth provide excellent ball lie and playability (easier and more consistent overseeding performance)
- Significantly reduced thatch buildup and minimal seedhead production compared to other hybrid bermudagrasses
- Deeper root system allows water and fertilizer saving
- Less sensitive to Spring Dead Spot desease
