I worked a brand-new FT field last year. Basically it felt a bit like running on a muddy field; there was more "give" to it than on a dry grass field.

Afterwards, I had slightly sore leg muscles where I previously didn't know I had muscles. I also noticed I had what looked like dryer lint on the back of my shoes. That was weird.

But overall it was a pleasure to work. The lines are clearly marked, and the lack of a crown in the middle of the field makes it easier to see the whole field from a wing position. On a hot day, though, I think I would prefer a grass field, which better absorbs the heat.
