I have a hard time controlling my golf ball around bermuda greens?

I play Bridgestone e5+ and Nike Black golf balls. I can control my ball better on Bent grass but on bermuda it seems to run away. Anything suggestion would greatly be appreciate.

Bermuda grass is much more difficult to play than a bent grass green or course. Bermuda grass is gnarly, has a heavy grass blade and root system which requires an almost perfect strike with irons and approach shots to the green and a definite grain on the putting surface. One has to play these greens in order to properly read the grain with side hill putts being a definite problem.

What to do with a tiff grass golf green in the winter?

I assume you are talking about TifEagle bermuda grass – depending what climate you are in you can overseed with Rye/Poa blend but it will take longer in the spring for Bermuda to come back in unless you are in a very hot climate. The other option is to leave dormant and use Green turf paint
