Black Horse at Bayonet/Black Horse Golf Course

Very nice to come back and play Black horse:) Weather was really nice. It was such a beautiful sight to see Monterey pine trees in the backdrop of the Monterey bay. Course condition was pretty good, and there were several renovation projects going on on the course, and there were new home construction goings on as well. There were many bunkers on the course, and green was pretty and had many ups, and downs. All in all I really enjoyed this round.

Course is in great shape. A lot of work has been done and continues to improve. The trees removed have made a big difference on how the course looks and play!
Great work to all people involved!

The construction, workers, trucks, and detours destroyed the ambiance of the round.

Great courses have been ruined.l

Undergoing some course upgrades. Areas off the fairways are under construction and possibly turned into waste areas, but still a Great Course.

Overall the course was great never disappoints. But the pro shop staff was very unfriendly. And insisted we couldn’t get range balls cause “we didn’t have enough time” even though we had 25 minutes till our tee time. And felt a sense of us being unwelcome.

Too many areas w/ ground under repair, otherwise would have rated conditions 4.7

The morning round is the best! The kool oxygen just jacking up blood.
The sky was crystal, truly I was going to enjoy this
Early winter rounds. Then my first winter dream came to an end! I loss a sleeve of new TP5,
It didn’t faze until I added up the round you don’t want to know I want to forget, I’ll be to back to ride the Blackhorse soon!

I have played this course a number of times. In monterrey area for the most part you have super expensive or super cheap. There is not a whole lot of inbetween. Black horse (and bayonet) are one of the few were you can play a decent course that wont completely break the bank (however i would probably never play this course in other areas at their price point) Course design is good, fairways and greens are decent, bunkers are absolute trash.

Sand traps are very heavy and crappy condition. Restrooms are just portapotties. Lots of ground under repair. Price is way too high for what you get…if they don’t drop the price while conditions are crap, go somewhere else.

A nice course but the degree of construction that disrupted almost every hole was very disappointing. Also, one of the big plusses of the course in the past was the view of Monterey Bay. Shortly, when all the construction of multi million dollar homes, those priceless views will mostly be gone for good. Nice if you can afford the homes. Not so good for the regular golfer.
