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.

Good in any weather
I play this course many times and most of the time its in really good shape. All 27 greens have recently been replaced with Tiff Eagle. They roll true and firm so no complaints there. The staff is great and they have remodeled the proshop
The Bridges
This course is fantastic. The greens are in good condition and the fairways are the same. There was no cart girl.
Great shape considering how hot it has been
Pace of play was great. Foursome played in 3 hours and 35 minutes.
Only negative was the cracks in the fairway. Most every course has them.
Let's live truthfully
I left my pitching wedge on the 6th or 7th hole of the Master Course. I asked the team behind me, but they all said they didn't know. No matter how good the golf course is, only unscrupulous players come here, so the quality of the golf course is just below par. Everyone is having a hard time making a living, so looking at golf clubs seems to make them greedy.
Course and greens in great condition considering the brutal summer we've had. Champions 9 looks even better and should be open to public play after the next hosted tourney.
Great Value and great course
What I am about to say goes for all three courses Old/ Lakes/ Bridges. I have been playing at all three since 2014.
The staff at all three locations are fantastic. The Old / Lakes club house is a little older but the city has put money into and its really looking great. The Bridges course is more modern with better practice facilities but you cant go wrong with either one. The Lakes and Old course are in great shape but the greens roll slightly slower than the bridges. Considering the TERRIBLE shape other public courses like Twin Creeks, Ridgeview ranch and Woodbridge are in this place is a gem. Unlike those others all the greens are open and well trimmed. All the tee boxes are in great shape. A real hats off to the greens staff at these two facilities.

Disappointed there was no beverage cart on the course on a holiday
Awesome course
Best greens that I’ve played this summer. Really good layout… well kept sand traps. Highly recommend!
Sandy course but fun to play
The course has tons of bunkers that can ruin decent drives but overall the course plays to your advantage if you have fades or draws. Lots of doglegs and fun par 3s.
