Course History:
The Bayonet golf course is one of two courses at this location. The Black Horse course integrates with this one and you can choose to play one or the other, or mix it up with nine holes on each. The new additions to the courses are only a few years old, and in fact, the Black Horse back nine were just recently completed. There is a resort onsite and this has quickly become a very popular destination.
The old Bayonet course dates back to 1954 and was the brainchild of General McClure. The course is actually built on the old site of Fort Ord.
What You Need to Know:
This is a very traditional golf course, so we recommend proper golfing attire and soft spikes. You can register your tee time by calling the number listed above, and we highly recommend giving enough of a lag time to ensure getting the time you want. These are very busy and popular courses.
Once you play a round, you'll see why - it is hard to find a round of golf this challenging anywhere else in California. In fact, it has even some of the most famous courses beat, even to some degree, Pebble Beach. They recently added a new online registration system for tee times as well, and they frequently run special offers. We highly recommend checking them out before you book your time.
The grill is worth the trip alone and we have not seen a club house this nice in a very long time. It's all about comfort and relaxation, and after a round on this course, you're going to need it! The pro shop was terrific, and you can browse through most of their products right online. We can't say enough nice things about this amazing course and would recommend it to anyone.
Playing Hints:
You will definitely want to bring your best game to play here. The sand traps are cavernous and the water hazards are treacherous. The eighth hole is a real killer, measuring in at just over 600 yards. Save your strength, since you'll be headed for the ninth hole for a total of more than 1000 yards for both.
Overall, our best advice is to hit long and hard, and don't neglect your short game. It's almost impossible to get a par here, unless you are a very seasoned pro, but it sure is a lot of fun trying.
