About

Holes 9
Type Public/Municipal
Par 35
Length 3202 yards
Slope 130
Rating 35.5

The Bridges at Firewheel Golf Park is a 27-hole layout that has been a regular host of U.S. Open and U.S. Amateur qualifying tournaments. The course is comprised of three nines that can be played in different 18-hole combinations. The Tradition nine is the shortest of the three at just over 3,200 yards from the back tees. What it lacks in length, it makes up for with the rolling terrain. Golfers will face tricky uneven lies in addition to strategically placed bunkers and towering oak and pecan trees. There are also two creeks that crisscross through the entire golf course. They come into play on several holes. Not only does the Bridges provide three 18-hole courses, there is also Firewheel's original 18-hole Old Course, which was followed soon after by the 18-hole Lakes Course.

Nice course and perfect greens!

This was a great course we’re the ball rolled true on the bent grass greens. Some hard pan on a couple of fairways on the back nine of the Traditions course. The front nine of the Champions course was challenging with great conditions, but the back nine was a little faster due to crews not watering holes in between groups. Overall, my only complaint is that the USB ports didn’t work in many of the carts and we had two carts die in us as well. Other than that, I’ll be back next week.

Masters course greens completely dead

The Champions course was in great shape with excellent bent grass greens. We played the Masters course for the second 9 and the greens have been chemically killed. The entire greens are dead, starting to crack open, and you might as well be putting on concrete. Very disappointing second 9 after a great front 9 experience. The Masters 9 should not be open to golfers.

Will play again!

Great layout. Has a bit of everything, and it's in great shape. I guess my only "knock" would be the mandatory doubling up on the carts. I get it, just wish you could solo if you wanted.

Challenging course.

Has a nice layout, and is fun, but definitely one of the more challenging courses for a beginner. First time playing, so not knowing the course hurt me, lot of blind hills. Carts were a little touchy, refused to move, but pulling the gas pedal up reset it.

Decent greens, slow play

Visiting from out of town, just booked this last minute, found decent greens and fairways. Three nines at the Bridges course have good layout and some elevation changes. Very slow play. No starter or rangers. Range is good. Hope to come back and play the other courses in the complex.

Afternoon Tee Off

Greens are in good shape on Champions & Masters course. Well kept for a course that gets a lot of traffic. Water is available, too. Watch out for the Golf Carts. Mine broke down but I got it running. iPhone charger didn’t work.

Love the Champions 9. The Masters 9 was brutal in the heavy winds.
