The Bayonet at Bayonet/Black Horse Golf Course

Hitting fairways is key out there but even then that is not enough. Long undulating, multiple tier greens will have you second guessing your decisions upon approach. Course is as good as it has looked in years. Greens rolling fast and true. Great practice facility from driving range, short game area and putting. Restaurant is always solid.

Great staff, Great Valueb

Even it was rainy day, we totally enjoy this golf course!
Every staffs were very kind, the course’s condition was also very good!
If I have to say something bad, it's only now that I know the golf course.
Thank you so much!

I've played the course many times. I will only comment on the Bayonet Course. I have played it twice in the past 2 weeks. The conditions are disappointing. They are not building houses but entire neighborhoods in what once was a beautiful quiet forest. Unfortunately that is the world we live in today when it comes to developers and housing. I can live with that, but the condition of the greens is very poor. The greens look like they have 6 different types of grasses growing in them. Some greens are hard and some much softer. They don't seem to tolerate foot traffic well. Soft spikes still leave big marks to fix. Feel like even if you hit a good putt, you need to be a bit lucky to have it go in. I suspect they have been dealing with some fungus issues for a long time. The practice green is in hideous shape, and was terrible a year ago. What is going on? The bunkers no longer have the nice white sand and instead are very hard with not enough sand of whatever type. Maybe I am being too critical, but I remember when the course was in really pristine shape, and it's just disappointing to see it go downhill.

The course is easier with the cypress tres groomed but the greens are huge and doggy to putt

Greens were very fast and treacherous. Course was in good shape except for a few bare spots in the fairway.

Played on weekday morning, the course is in great condition. Greens are very fast and roll truly. Staffs are friendly. it is definitely worth to play while you are in Monterey.

Course needs some TLC especially on tees and traps.

Compared to the Blackhorse course, Bayonet was a disappointment. Fairways and bunkers were not in great conditions; however greens were great.

Also the starter was not very friendly.

Greens had either lots of sand or literal holes and ruts in them, no warning online or from the golf shop, no discount either. Course just not well cared for, tee boxes torn up and tons of unfixed divots in the fairway. A real disappointment at $130. This used to be a gem and cost about half- and not all that long ago. Note the picture of a giant bag of trash left out on the tee box, and a mediocre at best lie in the middle of the fairway.
