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.

greens are in good condition. The ruff was a little heavy and I appreciated it.
Greens were in good condition but not as fast as expected. Fairways were in good condition. Enjoyed the layout.
Good could be great
The greens are awesome but be sure you check for ball marks before you putt. It seems there are golfers who visit that need a lesson in ball mark repair and raking sand traps. Foot prints from animals and people all through the traps. It's a good course that could be great with a little attention. Just a couple passes by someone thruought the day to check traps and greens. Also we ran into a slow 5 some which can be annoying.
Good course
good course, good condition. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Bridges Course great from tee to green
Played on Saturday, tee off time was 9:00. Slow pace, but beautiful course with challenging sand traps, undulating greens, blanketed with bent grass more than made up for the pace. Tee Boxes, fairways, traps and greens in great condition. GPS was wonderful!
Great bent grass greens
Couse was in good shape, rough was a little high which made hitting the fairway a plus. Cart girl came around often. I was a single and got to play with a guy who had played 274 rounds this year.
The green was maintained well.
I haven't played at this course for 2 years.
Apparently, the course was redesigned. The green was changed to the left instead of right side of Hole 9 of the Tradition as I can remember. The green was nicely maintained especially in the hot summer day in Dallas.
Great course for the value.
We were impressed by the condition of the course, the golf carts with video displays/GPS, and the overall condition of the course/clubhouse. Great value.
Beautiful layout. Very difficult if you don't hit the fairway off the tee.
It was my first time at Firewheel (Bridges) course which is odd because I live less than 7 miles from it. It was a very hot (100 plus) day so course was relatively empty except for a few hardcore golfers. I truly loved the layout here. The holes had both right to left and left to right set up's so it can accommodate both a draw or fade off the tee. Greens were fantastic but not too difficult. The bunkers were fluffy white sand like you would find in Florida.
The rates here without Golfnow are pricey but the discount I received makes this place one of my top courses in the DFW area. I highly recommend this course!
Good course for price.
Nice course for price. Pace of play was a little slow but it was noon on a Saturday so to be as excepted for a public course on weekend.
Decent shape for a public course.
Greens were cut a little long, so the ball did not roll true.
Very good course
We had a early morning tee time. There were very few people out there, which made the pace excellent. The course was in fairly good shape. The ground crews were repairing the greens and working on the sand traps. This left a bunch of debris on the greens. All that being said, we really enjoyed the course and will be be back.
Bridges - Champion to Bridges - Masters
I golfed there on Friday 6/7/13. Greens were in amazing shape. Best greens I've putted on in a long time and I play once a week. Fairways were in great shape too. It was well worth paying more to play the Bridges courses. I've played the Old course and the Lakes course a dozen times each and the Bridges course blows them away.
Love the layout and playing amongest the tree lined fairways
Staff was outstanding (in the Pro Shop as well as the resturant).
