Bridges - The Tradition at Firewheel Golf of Garland
Rating Snapshot
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.

The Bridges
Course was in really good condition and we enjoyed our round.
This course has great features
Course was in great shape. The drink cart could have come around more times. Enjoyed the GPS system on each hole. Overall good experience.
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.
Great shape!
Fairway and greens where in great shape...some divots on green were not cleaned but that's the fault of the golfers and not the course!
Great course for a good price
The Bridges course is in good shape. The greens are fairly good overall with some unrepaired ball marks.
Excellent greens.
Great condition. Well trimmed fairways. Soft and smooth greens. Beautiful lay out with soft white sandy bunkers.
Great course
My only issue was that the tee time wasn't in their system, so I had to wait 35 min for the next available time. Besides that, it was a great course and will definitely be going back.
A MUST PLAY!!!
This was my first time playing at Firewheel and it was a great experience. They have 3 different 9 hole courses that vary in style, and difficulty. The greens are probably the best in the Metroplex for a minucipal course. The staff is extremely friendly, and the food was just as good as eating at a restuarant. I played on a Saturday, expecting to take over 4 1.2 horus to play, and we finished the round in under 4 hours. Pace of play was AWESOME, and if you are rhythm golfer like me that bodes very well for your game. The greens rolled true and were receptive to shots from a 100 yards to 200 yards. If you want to have a fun day on the golf course, challenge yourself while still enjoying the day, you need to play these courses. There is water on about every other hole, and the marshalls are out on the course making sure the pace of play stays on track. If you get chance, get out there and play, you won't regret it!!!
Fantastic conditions
The only thing that I believe could improve this course is if they offered a walking option. There is very little distance from green to tee. Fun course and great layout.
Great course in excellent condition
This was my second time playing this course and just like last year, the course was in great conditions. The fairways and greens looked perfect. However, not sure if I had just caught them after a watering because the fairways were very soft and not fast. Also the rough was rough, but both made for an excellent challenge. My only issue this time around was that they did not have all 27 holes open. That caused a massive back up at the turn and therefore I did not finish my round. Still would highly recommend this course on golfnow deal.
Great Golf Weather
The weather was perfect with overcast and light wind not a normal day in July. The course was in great shape due to recent rains and we had a great time playing it. Play the course now because it is in great shape and the marshals make sure players maintain their pace of play.
Great course
Best greens around. Great fairways and rough was nice and thick. Can't wait to go back!
the course is in REALLY good shape.
Very nice pace of round..the greens where very nice..relaxing day....
Bridges
Course is really nice. Only complaint is that weekend golfers on a public course do not fix divots.
Great course
I booked on golfnow so my price was considerably less than typical, that made it seem much more enjoyable I'm sure. Nothing bad to say about my experience, I'd certainly recommend this course.
Good course for the money
Great course. Played traditions and masters 9. The masters 9 is much more challenging and requires ball placement and good hole management.
Greens are soft and rolled true.
Fairways and greens were in really good shape. Greens held all shots and left ball marks. Bunker sand was nice. Pace of play was above average - 4:20 to finish 18.
This course has developed nicely.
It had been a few years since playing this course and it has matured very well!
Excellent course layout and condition
The fairways and greens are in top condition and you will not regret the challenging layout. Played Champions 9 and Masters 9 (highly recommend).
