Bridges - The Tradition at Firewheel Golf of Garland
About
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.

Top dressed
I wish they would have let me know in advance that they had punched the greens. Also top dressed. This was done yesterday.
Conditions
Fairways are in good shape. Greens are very soft and pitted from divot marks. People not fixing divots is part of the problems but overwatering may be part of it as well. Some bunkers filled with weeds and not maintained . Champions course in much better shape than Traditions .
Still worth the money
The course is just fine
Golfnow was my only problem - it was raining all over the area - at 73 years old I decided not to play because rain predictions were 65% and the temperature was in the 60s - not ideal or even good conditions - because the course did not close Golfnow decided to keep my money. Better be 100% sure you are going to play no matter what are these guys are going to rob you.
Worst Greens I've ever played on
These greens were atrocious. The course was in bad shape all together but these greens looked like tiny land mines had gone off on them.
Best value in DFW
Great track.....only public course I know of with bent grass greens in DFW. 3 different 9’s. Great range and practice facility too.
Temporary Greens
One of my favorite courses, but temp on #6 of champions and Masters is shut down with several bad greens Have to play the Traditions
Don't bring a putter - can't even play the greens
The fairways are hard, the bunkers are hard and the greens are truly some of the worst I've seen. They look nice but the ball leaves a massive divot, the people that play here don't fix their divots and you don't even want to putt here. Extremely inconsistent, bumpy, slow, etc.
Also...1/5 holes you're NOT ALLOWED to even hit at the green!! They put a flag in the fairway and call it a hole. RIDICULOUS. There should really be a warning for this. Save your money and either go elsewhere or go to the range. Really displeased.
Fun round in August - who knew?
PLayed on a near perfect 72 degree morning. Bengrass greens were a little fuzzy, which they kind of have to be in the heat of summer. Bermudagrass in good shape, bunkers were playable, and rest of the course in fair condition. We did play at 7am, which meant we had dew, recently mowed fairways, and chased the grounds crew all morning. 3 hour round is awesome. I still wish courses could find some way to offer water.... it's why I can't play much right now. Covid rules suck.
Great Course
This course was in excellent shape. It hasn't rained hard in a couple weeks and the greens on this course are in phenomenal shape.
Awesome Course
Course was in really good shape Champions/Tradition 9s we’re both very nice and greens were very soft and receptive. Played in 3 and a half hours which was great, nice outing will be back.
Good track
Great layout. Back nine greens are poorly maintained bent grass suffering Summers Heat.
Poor
Do not let them put you on the masters course. It is in terrible condition. Greens were in terrible shape. This management should be fired. A beautiful course has been destroyed.
