Raeford, North Carolina
Approaching Bayonet at Puppy Creek, players might think they’ve made a wrong turn into a sod farm as they pass acres of perfectly manicured grass. But there is no need to turn around. Bayonet is owned by Carolina Turf Farms, Inc. Bayonet at Puppy Creek is exactly what you’d expect when a family that has been growing turf for three generations, takes an incredible piece of property and decides to build a golf course. Incredible course conditions are par for the course. Golf course architect Willard Byrd’s goal was to design a course that featured 18 unique holes that could challenge all facets of a golfers game. It’s all here, uphill and downhill par 3’s, reachable par 5’s, doglegs left, doglegs right and 4 encounters with the property’s most beautiful feature – Puppy Creek.
