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.

What Wind?!
In spite of 35 mile an hour gusts, this course was worth the effort and the money. Greens were great!
Fairways had very few tight lies. The only real complaint is that the fabric liner of the bunkers was barely covered with sand in some of the bunkers. Ask me how I know. The tee boxes were in really good shape. On Champions, #7 par 3, king is wet, and so is right. The Master's 9 was in equally as good condition. Get out to Firewheel before it gets hot!
Great conditions
Perfect bentgrass greens, good green surrounds, tight but good fairways. The Masters 9 is a little quirky but still a challenge. Very windy made it nearly impossible to hold a ball on the greens downwind. Great course, especially if you get it for $25 like I did. Very much a parkland course as you play through the trees and around the creeks and wetlands. Easy access from PGBT helps the appeal, but also helps make it crowded at times.
The Bridges at Firewheel
This Course has 3 sets of 9 holes: Masters, Champion and Tradition. This review is for Champion and Tradition. The Champion course is fairly straight forward with its placement of bunkers and water hazards. The greens and fairways are currently in great shape. The Tradition has houses on almost every hole. For the most part they are back far enough that it should not make a difference. Placement of shots is key on this 9. Number 7 has a blind second shot as well as number 9 having and elevated green over water. Again the greens and fairways are in great shape. Will play here again.
The Bridges
This course is in great shape. The GREENS ARE EXCELLENT.
With so many DFW golf courses with terrible greens that should be shut down, it was great to play a real golf course.
Will definitely return.
Bridges... Nice Track
My first time to play the Bridges and it was Great! course was in great shape and pace of play was awesome... Ill be back ...
Good Layout. Very tight lies.
This is a very nice golf course. The layout is good the greens were very good. The lies are very tight though so you need to be ready to play with tight lies. The sand was very soft which made sense shots very inconsistent. It is a tough course to play the first time but with a little course knowledge
Very unsatisfied
Play this course quiet often but today was a joke. Greens were like putting on a beach and fairways had very little grass. Guy blowing sand went by on Gator and blew grass all over my wife that was sitting in cart. If they are not going to take care of course then they need to go down on green fees.
Round with my son-in-law
Overall good. Greens above average shape. Fairways and tee boxes a little bare but playable.
I would like to play it in the spring. I think it would bea much more pleasant experience. Nonetheless, nice course that provides a challenge but not overly difficult that high handicappers would not enjoy. Multiple course allow for different challenges a club selection. I wish it were on GolfNow more often
Great greeNs
Awesome deal.. solid course with absolutely perfect greens
Great Course!!
I played the Champions and Traditions courses. Both were in great shape the greens could have been in better shape. I guess you can't expect much better with the amount of play the courses are getting. I look forward to playing the other 9 hole...The Master's!
Great course close to home
Challenging layout with much variety!
Love Firewheel complex
The Complex is always challenging and in great condition !
