Bridges - The Masters at Firewheel Golf of Garland
Rating Snapshot
About
Firewheel Golf Park boasts a total of 63 championship holes. There are three regulation courses: the Bridges, the Lakes, and the Old Course, which boast enough variety to appeal to a wide range of skill levels from novices to pros. The 27-hole Bridges Course even offers three more 18-hole combinations. The layout is comprised of three different nines: the Masters, the Champions, and the Traditions that can be mixed and matched for a different round every time you play at Firewheel. Throughout the course, golfers will face strategically placed bunkers and there are tall oak and pecan trees all along the sculpted fairways. Spring Creek and Rowlett Creek also weave across the landscape, coming into play on several holes. The Masters is the longest of the three nines at 3,553 yards from the back tees.

Nice course and perfect greens!
This was a great course we’re the ball rolled true on the bent grass greens. Some hard pan on a couple of fairways on the back nine of the Traditions course. The front nine of the Champions course was challenging with great conditions, but the back nine was a little faster due to crews not watering holes in between groups. Overall, my only complaint is that the USB ports didn’t work in many of the carts and we had two carts die in us as well. Other than that, I’ll be back next week.
Masters course greens completely dead
The Champions course was in great shape with excellent bent grass greens. We played the Masters course for the second 9 and the greens have been chemically killed. The entire greens are dead, starting to crack open, and you might as well be putting on concrete. Very disappointing second 9 after a great front 9 experience. The Masters 9 should not be open to golfers.
Will play again!
Great layout. Has a bit of everything, and it's in great shape. I guess my only "knock" would be the mandatory doubling up on the carts. I get it, just wish you could solo if you wanted.
Challenging course.
Has a nice layout, and is fun, but definitely one of the more challenging courses for a beginner. First time playing, so not knowing the course hurt me, lot of blind hills. Carts were a little touchy, refused to move, but pulling the gas pedal up reset it.
Decent greens, slow play
Visiting from out of town, just booked this last minute, found decent greens and fairways. Three nines at the Bridges course have good layout and some elevation changes. Very slow play. No starter or rangers. Range is good. Hope to come back and play the other courses in the complex.
Afternoon Tee Off
Greens are in good shape on Champions & Masters course. Well kept for a course that gets a lot of traffic. Water is available, too. Watch out for the Golf Carts. Mine broke down but I got it running. iPhone charger didn’t work.
A good course with a few changes.
The bridges course at Firewheel is by far the best of the three in the complex. I played the Masters and Traditions nines yesterday and for the most part the course was in good shape. the greens rolled true and the fairways were in fantastic shape. I have played other courses in the Plano area that could learn a great deal from the grounds crew at firewheel. There were fewer people than I expected but that could have been due to the hot temps along with many people being out at the Byron Nelson.
There have been a few changes but nothing major. Two trees on the 7th hole on the masters course either fell down or were cut down. that changed how you play that par 5 but not a big deal. The addition of the MASSIVE power lines that cut the 8th hole on the traditions course down do a gap wedge shot is a little disappointing but I doubt that the course had any say in where the power lines were going. As always the practice facilities were in great shape and the staff has always been friendly. Its a great course and I would recommend it to anyone.
