Architect
4 courses on Course Vaults
Jim Bivins developed a portfolio of southeastern golf courses during his design career, with work concentrated in North Carolina and Georgia. His designs include Holly Ridge Golf Links in Archdale, North Carolina, and Black Creek Golf Club in Ellabell, Georgia—both of which have earned recognition within Course Vaults' scoring system. Additional courses attributed to Bivins include Asheboro Country Club in North Carolina and Rocky Creek Golf Club in Vidalia, Georgia.
His work reflects the regional golf development patterns of the southeastern United States, where courses were often designed to accommodate both daily-fee play and club memberships. While detailed biographical information about Bivins as a golf course architect remains limited in readily available sources, his completed projects demonstrate experience across varied terrain in the Piedmont and Coastal Plain regions.
The four courses in the Course Vaults database represent his documented design work, with Holly Ridge and Black Creek serving as the most notable examples of his approach to layout and playability.
