I fly from a turf field too. The only time the surface has ever been
an issue is when a 172 driver was taxiing too fast and dug up some
stones with his prop.

In a taildragger it wouldn't be a problem. I'm flying a 206, even on
grass you'll pick up some dirt/small stones that erode the prop. At $8K
a prop it just isn't worth it.

There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing
as simply messing around with airplanes.
