Type Public/Municipal
Par 36
Length 3553 yards
Slope 138
Rating 37.5

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.

First Time Playing

Dallas golf

We were originally scheduled to play the Bridges course but due to flooding we moved to the Old course. Pro shop guys were very friendly, organized and were doing a good job. We asked to go out early and they had no issue with that and sent us out about 20 minutes early. I found the course to be just ok. Short , really big fairways and wide open. A few houses on some of holes but it's basically hit away and iron to most greens. # 3,9,13and 16 are the highlights of the course .Greens were in good shape although very dry and crusty. I was disappointed with not being able to play The Bridges so I will be back to play it. The old course is a good warmup to that side.

Solid Track

Tee to green the course was in fantastic shape. The greens roll very true, however they are a bit slow. Overall I had a great experience and will definitely be back to play again soon.

One of the best City courses

Grabbed a last-minute Hot Deal to play that afternoon, paired up with another single, played Tradition and Masters. Course was in great shape tee-to-green, even the bunkers, particularly good with all the rain recently. A few greens were a bit shaggy and slow, but overall a great round.

Great track - tough but precise.

Champions to Masters makes for a great 18. The course is so well marked and the GPS makes it even more accurate when sizing up a shot. And you will need it to stay in play!

Stellar practice range. Good food.

No walking policy

I did not play my round as I was informed the Bridges course has a no walking policy. How can you have a golf course with a no walking policy? Makes no sense to me.

Very enjoyable

Played first 9 on Champions and second 9 on Traditions.
Champion greens were recently punched/sanded so approach shots and putts were sketchy, but should be in great shape by end of April if we get as much rain as we're expecting. Fairways and bunkers were in great condition.
Traditions greens were in excellent condition since they were punched sooner. Fairways and bunkers in great condition, too.
Staff was very friendly, as always. Wasn't very crowded at all, probably since it was Masters Saturday afternoon, so pace of play was steady. Never had to wait and had time to hit extra shots or putts without slowing anyone else down.
All around fun track every time, regardless of which two 9s I play.

Great layout

I loved the course. Slow play could be an issue with no Marshall or starter, but it wasn't bad this Friday afternoon. The layout makes for some fun golf. 9 of the holes I played had recently been aerated, so greens could have been better, but the other 9 were great and a look at what they will all be soon. Overall thumbs up

The Bridges course not the lakes

The Bridges has 3 different 9 hole courses.Champions is always first the you can play either Masters or Traditions. Masters course runs through a neighborhood, Traditions is more wooded. Overall the sand traps are very soft, the Champions course greens are very fast fairways are full. Traditions greens are somewhat slower but very nice and fairways are full
You must play This course,great shape for February in Texas. After your round go eat in the restaurant fairly price and very good food for a golf course.

Well worth it

I have played all Fire wheel Park courses, and the Bridges is definitely the cream of the crop. The wind hampered the experience but overall was pleasantly surprised with the condition of the greens in late November. The staff was more than friendly which seams to be out of the ordinary today. Sometimes when you play discount golf they treat you as such. Can't wait to go back in the spring when the course should be in pristine condition.

Course

Golf Club has 3 courses so you can play a different 18 several times. Staff was excellent. Course was in great shape. Need to update the directions. Golf Now had directions to the Lakes/Old Firewheel courses not the Bridges.

Good Challenge for any golfer

Very pleased with course layout. Some holes requires to be very accurate off tee box. Green's roll very nice and true. Not impressed by driving range but served it's purpose of getting a few swings in before playing. Great practice green.
