Bridges - The Champion at Firewheel Golf of Garland
About
Firewheel Golf Park in Garland is home to the 27-hole Bridges Course, which is comprised of three nines that are played in different 18-hole combinations. Opened in 2001, the course has been host to several U.S. Open and U.S. Amateur events. The nines offer plenty of variety, each utilizing the tree-covered rolling terrain in different ways. The Champion nine is the second longest nine. It features large putting surfaces and sculpted fairways lined with mature oak and pecan trees. You'll run into a fair amount of strategically placed bunkers on this nine. The Rowlett and Spring Creek meander through the entire layout, coming into play on several holes. In addition to the three 18-hole golf courses provided by the Bridges, there are also the two other 18-hole courses at Firewheel, the original Old Course and the Lakes Course.

Please Don't Punch Me
You'll like this course. I prefer playing the Champions and the Masters. Right now, the fairways are running fast. Bunkers are well maintained. The greens have been punched recently, but are still pretty hard and don't receive a good approach very well. So, so plan on an extra amount of roll out. This course is not too tight or too long for us duffers. Lots of fun.
Nice day
Course was in good shape but greens had been recently punched so they were bumpy and slow. Otherwise great day.
Always in good shape
Great layout, fun, challenging and a good deal with GolfNow. The greens were aerated a few days before we played, but they still rolled very well.
Windy and cold but enjoyed
It was cold and very windy when we played. We almost second guessed our decision to play but glad we didn’t back out. The course has a very nice layout and is in very good condition. The greens rolled true. It will challenge all skill levels. I will definitely play this course again. I can see if becoming one of my favorite courses to play.
Nice Day
For this time of year, the course was in great shape. Those were the best greens I have played in 2018. I wish more cities would develop a venue with 54 holes of play or even 36 for that matter. Bridges has always been the nicest of the 3 courses.
Great Course - Spectacular price
Course in great shape despite 3-4 inches rain 2 days earlier
Played 18 holes w/cart for $5.66
38 degrees is not optimal for golf!
We played at 8:45 am and the temperature was 37. It was not ideal but the course was wide open. Ha! It eventually warmed up to 54. The course was in good shape for the winter. We flew around the course. I love playing this course! If you get a chance play yourself a frosty round.
Always a fun course
This course offers all types of situations. Fun to play and it doesn’t hurt that the weather was great. Did have a frost delay so our tee time was pushed out about 30 - 45 minutes. They could’ve warned us beforehand so we didn’t show up an hour before our tee time. Other than that, had a great time and will certainly be back.

The greens are in really good shape! Love to putt on Bent Grass!
Slow play
I had a 12:53 pm tee time and was set up as a single. i am there early so i see about playing ahead of a 4 some. I get to the first tee at 12:30pm and there is a group of 27 guys. An elder gentleman says that this is a weekly game and that i might want to skip past there group and then return to play that hole. Turns out i had to go to hole 4 before i was able to tee off. I caught a 3 some on the par 3 5th. they had already hit so they waved me thru. i was on in one and got par and teed off the next whole. i had two holes that i was able to play thru alone. I then ran into a back to back groups of 4 somes of women that apparently had went off on a shotgun; so until 12 was it was brutal. i had to go back and play the first 3 holes after my round
Windy Day
It was a beautiful day and the senior tournament ran long so it was backed up over 30 minutes so we would have never finished before dark. The pro shop let us go off on the Traditions instead and we played it twice and finished in 3 hours. Kudos to them. Course was in great shape for late November, Greens were soft which I like, but the wind was brutal. We were all lucky to break 90 in those conditions.
Nice track
Very nice track, great pace of play. Currently the greens are a little bumpy due to recent punching but that should go away soon.
Took 4hrs 30 mins for our 4-some to play. It was slow for the front 9-holes. Opened up for the back 9.
Wonder why no beverage carts on the course on a nice day. Cart girls could have made some easy money.
Couse was in good shape despite the leaves. We were told they are getting ready to aerate the greens.
