Whuts rong with my grass?

[KirbysLawn]

I really would like to have a nice, professional looking lawn. I have a problem with my grass and need help. Could anyone tell me what the problem is and what would you do to fix it?

Thanks,

Ray

Soil test 3 months ago:

• pH 5.8
• P 63
• K 226
• Ca 955
• Mg 338
• CAE 14.6

Weather has been 40 days without rain (until 2 days ago), soil looks good and dark.

Was it possibly fed during august rainfall.
That wood would load it with nitrogen. Then
the drought and there the grass set with
a load of nitrogen and no moisture to process
and use it properly. just a possibility.

Was fertilized with starter 9 weeks ago and has been properly irrigated.
