They can be a lot of fun.

What makes turf airstrips fun?

I believe he means that, as a general rule, it's their locations that make
them more fun than paved ones.

Also, a well-maintained sod strip gives you the smoothest landings
possible. I landed once eat Leeward air Ranch and could not tell I had
landed until the plane started slowing down. It is one of the smoothest
strips I have ever landed on.

Also, grass runways cut tire and brake wear WAY down!
