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.

Got a great deal
I normally do not play golf when it is over 90 degrees, so basically June thru September here in DFW. I made an exception to go play Bridges Firewheel when I saw a deal for $35 on a Sunday morning. Good golf, good course, friendly folks, good conditions. Bad decision on my part. Finished birdie, birdie, par and then got sick walking off the 18th green. A special thank you to the 11:10 tee time group that came up and found me in heat exhaustion and gave me ice, a cool towel, and made sure I was OK.
Well done
The course is in great shape. The price for weekend play was outstanding. Great value. People are super nice. Warm up facilities are great! 4 hour round on a weekend is outstanding.
Great Course
Favorite local course near firewheel area. The layout is excellent, the greens are well kept, price is great. Better than woodbridge, waterview, & sherril park overall. So best course in this area.
First time to play today. Course is in great shape. Will return!
Who's Fault?
It seems that nobody rakes bunkers at this course. While it's true that isn't really the course's fault, I do think that they could do more by including more than one rake per bunker. Some might not bother walking around to get the single rake you find at each bunker. I also think that a little reminder at check-in to all players would help; reminder to rake bunkers, repair ball marks, fill divots with sand...basically to do what everyone who cares about the game should be doing. I think a roaming marshal would help, to monitor here and there and make folks do what they should be doing.
So yes, it's the golfers but the course could do more to encourage people to do what they should be doing and kicking those who don't off the course!
Better than Some
3 Nines With different personalities. Greens are hard And often small, making a difficult to hold the elevated greens. GPS In the carts Is nice but the Yardage accuracy is only mediocre so bring your own rangefinder. Other than that was a nice day
Deceptive greens
Played the champions and masters courses, and the starter advised that the champions course greens were slow and the masters course greens were really fast. However, I found both very slow. Better to have stomp reading and put up the green speeds on a board.
Greens recently aerated
Customers should not have to pay full price when playing on greens recently aerated and sanded!
