McClure designed the course and named it for the 7th Infantry Division, the 'Bayonet Division.' Its military origins remain central to both the name and identity of the course.
After Fort Ord closed, the City of Seaside acquired the golf facilities in 1997. Gene Bates later undertook an extensive renovation completed in 2008. The project reshaped tees, fairways, bunkers and greens, introduced new turf and opened sightlines toward Monterey Bay while retaining much of the established routing.
Bayonet has been used for significant tournament golf, including PGA Professional National Championship competition and qualifying events.
Bayonet operates as one of two separate 18-hole courses at the Bayonet & Black Horse facility in Seaside and remains open to public play.
