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.

First time to play today. Course is in great shape. Will return!
Who's Fault?
It seems that nobody rakes bunkers at this course. While it's true that isn't really the course's fault, I do think that they could do more by including more than one rake per bunker. Some might not bother walking around to get the single rake you find at each bunker. I also think that a little reminder at check-in to all players would help; reminder to rake bunkers, repair ball marks, fill divots with sand...basically to do what everyone who cares about the game should be doing. I think a roaming marshal would help, to monitor here and there and make folks do what they should be doing.
So yes, it's the golfers but the course could do more to encourage people to do what they should be doing and kicking those who don't off the course!
Better than Some
3 Nines With different personalities. Greens are hard And often small, making a difficult to hold the elevated greens. GPS In the carts Is nice but the Yardage accuracy is only mediocre so bring your own rangefinder. Other than that was a nice day
Deceptive greens
Played the champions and masters courses, and the starter advised that the champions course greens were slow and the masters course greens were really fast. However, I found both very slow. Better to have stomp reading and put up the green speeds on a board.
Greens recently aerated
Customers should not have to pay full price when playing on greens recently aerated and sanded!
Amazing
Course is in amazing shape all 3 firewheel courses are great, greens are perfect! Water on a few holes but not too challenging and shouldn’t lose too many balls, some fairways are more tight with trees around but makes it great
Hot but fun
Courses were in decent albeit a bit dried out. The greens were in good shape and fast. What I love about this course is the abundance of shade to avail yourself on 100 degree days. Also, not too many residences lining the fairways. Overall, a good day although having to return our carts by 8pm limited us to 16 holes.
Great
Played Champions and Master.. Greens are in great condition. Great course and good value.
Good shape
The course is in great shape, super tight fairways on The Masters 9. It’s a shot makers course
Great course layout but no water on course in 100 degree heat.
Great course layout but when my son called the proshop and asked if they can get water out on the course , the response should not be “that’s golf course maintenance job”…
Ok…so…this has prompted me to write a review..
In addition you can’t get a beverage cart person after 4pm cause they leave and come back at 5:30/6:00pm to unload and clock out apparently…??
Does the City of Garland run this course…what’s going on with the daily operation…??
Nice round late in the day!
Grass to hit off, greens rolling good, T Boxes could have a tad more grass but overall, a value for a Sr, for Sure!
