i sprinkle with seed(make sure it is of high qualilty) and work into the soil with a garden weasel. those are perfect for that. there is a product out now we saw at the GIE though called the grass sticher. even better.

Same here...just use some seed. A neat little trick I've learned too, is to use a stick edger on the areas (acts as a slit seeder) and drop the seed in. It comes up really well. It gets hard not to rip up slightly especially when it's raining all the time, like it did this season around here.
