Bridges - The Masters at Firewheel Golf of Garland
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.

Very different 9's
Traditions 9 was a bit rough but still playable. Bunkers haven't been touched in quite some time. Greens putted well but are a bit scarred from being bent grass in the summer so they keep them wet. Champions 9 is in great condition. Greens rolled well. Friendly staff and always fun to play here.
Bridges course
The fairways, bunkers and tee box are in good shape. Some native Texas grass has invaded some of the greens, but nothing that will ruin your round. Of the three Firewheel courses, the Lakes Course is in the best shape.
Firewheel
Played at the Bridges, where they have 3 nine hole courses. Played the Championship and Masters. Most of the driving holes are tight. Played from the blue tees 6600 yards. Greens are in good shape.
Beautiful & Fun Course
Course was in great condition and some good changeling holes. Loved the back nine of the champions course.
Bent Grass for a great value
Great value for Bent grass greens That are in really good shape especially for a public golf course.
Directions on Map Are Wrong
For everyone attempting to use the GolfNow map, be aware that the address takes you the opposite direction down Campbell. The entrance for the course in on Brand road.
Overall the course was nice. We ended our game short due to our cart battery dying. Course was fun and added a nice challenge.
Not happy
Greens were generally slow, fairways thin and hard...needs water, bunkers we're ok 50% of the course
Great place to play
Course was in excellent condition. Greens were great. Excellent place to play for the money. Would recommend this this place to anyone.
Challenging but Fair
This course is fair & fun to play. We played from the blue tees. It’s not hard, if you keep the ball in play. It’s fairly wide, so that is not a big problem. I thought the greens were in very good shape. They are fast and I think they break more than anticipated. We played at 1022 on a Friday and finished under 4 hours. I will come back, especially with special internet rates.
Gotta play this one
Greens and fairways in great shape. Pace of play great. This is a jewel and for under 20 bucks .a steal
Great value for a well conditioned course
After a delay in getting out (single player),paired with another single. Enjoyed the round and conditions. Long front 9 w/ 5 some slowing everyone. Passed them on turn (had to ask them) then played in under 2 hours on back. Great condition, greens were fantastic.
Great layout with plenty of scenery
My wife and I played here on a weekday afternoon on the way to Austin. Greens were in great shape and the course is laid out in a very interesting way around the river/creek that runs through it. We did have to wait 15-20 mins on several holes towards the end due to a bunch of adults and children playing some kind of tournament. They eventually let us thru. I think we played the Masters and Champion course. We did find it hard to make the transition from one course to the next. Maybe some signs? However, we really enjoyed it. My wife loved the place, which is rare. We will be back next time we pass though.
Great outing
The course was in great shape, very challenging but if you put it in the correct spots you can scores well. Greens in great shape, highly recommend this course.
