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.

Just an okay track

Course is narrow with lots of hazards. Greens were rock hard and lots of slopes. Hard to keep even well hit balls in the green. Probably won’t play here again with lots of other options in the area.

Good shape. Great pace of play (1st 9 was in 1 1/2 hours!), greens receptive and rolled true. Tough courses.

I play this course many times and most of the time its in really good shape. All 27 greens have recently been replaced with Tiff Eagle. They roll true and firm so no complaints there. The staff is great and they have remodeled the proshop

The Bridges

This course is fantastic. The greens are in good condition and the fairways are the same. There was no cart girl.

Great shape considering how hot it has been

Pace of play was great. Foursome played in 3 hours and 35 minutes.

Only negative was the cracks in the fairway. Most every course has them.

Let's live truthfully

I left my pitching wedge on the 6th or 7th hole of the Master Course. I asked the team behind me, but they all said they didn't know. No matter how good the golf course is, only unscrupulous players come here, so the quality of the golf course is just below par. Everyone is having a hard time making a living, so looking at golf clubs seems to make them greedy.
