Bridges - The Champion at Firewheel Golf of Garland

Played the Champions course and greens were dead grass and they need to redo the grass! I wish the course would just let us play the Masters or Traditions course!

I've played here a lot over the years and it's always been a favorite. However, the greens and fairways were in horrible condition. My group was disappointed.

The greens are being changed out shouldn’t have played

Came in town for work and found a last minute twilight tee time. The course was almost unplayable....nearly a third of the holes had significant bare or grass-less areas in and around the landing areas of the fairways. Some areas were just completely dirt that should have been marked GUR. The areas around the green were mostly deadpan, bordering on concrete. The bunkers were poorly kept and the greens were heavily pock-marked with obvious annual bluegrass problems and bare spots. I expected a lot more for a DFW area course, but I guess that's what you get for $40 twilight these days. I won't play here again.

The Traditions 9 is nothing more than several old holes cobbled together from the Lakes course. Played on a Saturday and the 9 holes took 3hours to play … yes, three hours to play nine holes. Greens were recently top dressed with sand so it was like putting thru sand traps. Most of the bunkers were unplayable. Also played the Champions 9 . it was enjoyable with several well placed but hidden ponds to steal your golf ball. Never saw a Marshall all day.

I love that they are not gouging us with ridiculously high prices. The course is in much better shape than others in the area, nice an green.

But people need to take the time to learn a few etiquette things, nothing against the course, although perhaps a marshal would help. Rake the bunkers. Repair your pitch marks. Don't just drive into a parallel fairway to get to your wayward shot without checking that it's clear. Allow a 3-some to join your single (you're waiting anyway).

Ok, I'll stop my rant.

Great place!

Course was a great first time play. Course layout, carts, and all amenities were great. Definitely going back.

I played the champions-Master courses. Fairways and greens in good shape with the exception of number 1 on the Masters course. Looks like they lost the green and a temporary green was set up. If you missed the fairway the rough was playable. Some of the tee boxes needed watering, a hammer would have helped me with placing my tee in the ground. I gave it four stars for the pace of play and the overall shape it was in.

Layout is better than the condition. Greens are sketchy.

Always enjoy playing all of the Firewheel courses. Great value and close to home.

The front 9 was alright. Greens were a mess. Very patchy. Going over the bridge to the back, you are faced with 2 options. Turn left and play another 9 on nice conditions, or turn right and play the worst track you will ever see in Texas. Tee boxes are like hitting out of a bunker. Fairways are non existent. Middle of the “fairway” is rock and almost zero grass. First cut is muddy, tons of dirt, no grass, and an absolute train wreck. Avoid these 9 holes.

We played The Champions and Traditions courses today and they were in decent shape for the end of winter, although the greens were not in the greatest shape, a lot of bumps and holes/plugs/ballmarks that need to be repaired. I suspect that in the next month or so they will be in great shape.

We played Firewheel because we heard that the course had been renovated. Apparently, that work happened on the Old Course or the Lakes. The Bridges is still pretty rough. Perhaps, Bridges is next on the list. Not a bad layout.

Crab grass in the greens made for some inconsistency putting. Bunkers were pretty good to play out of.
