Seed it again now. You may need to over-seed for a couple years for 
difficult spots. Put the seed down and put a little soil over the seed 
so the birds don't take it all (don't mix the soil in with the 
seed...just cover it).

Did you lime last fall? If not, go get some pelletized lime and just 
spread it chicken-feed style (no chickens required). Takes up to six 
months for the lime to work its way in, so you'll best results next 
year. Do it again in the fall and every fall after that.
