Birch is busy, but I’ve played it 3 time’s early to mid afternoon and I’ve got round in 3hrs each time. The 2 balls and 10mins gaps really work for pace of play (& social distancing)
I am a member of Bexleyheath & before Covid it was rarely busy and afternoons especially the course was pretty free. Weekends are more busy & Sunday mornings are club competitions. Currently it is two balls only with 10 minutes between tee times & you can play 18 in 3 hours fairly easily & club comps are suspended. Again mornings are busy but afternoon/evenings not so. The course is in great condition, the fairways are turning brown at the mo but greens are immaculate. The course does have 4 holes that cross each other with fairways that border each other but sensible play keeps play safe (there is a code of priority on these holes). The holes are a challenge & a few hills to walk up & the members are friendly with quite a few Charlton fans. First year membership is half price & the normal range of memberships are available. Being a 9 hole it is obviously easy to play a quick 9 or even 13 as the 4th/13th green is close to the clubhouse.
Played the 9 hole at Birchwood with my 11 year old son today. Really busy, but all managed within the social distancing. All the tee mats have been replaced and the course was in good nick, £10 each
Hit the flag, went over the foam and bounced out...
Holed? 😂
No idea. What wrong with having a hole. Only you pick the ball out so can't see the problem. If its to do with touching the flag stick then just leave the flag in as lots of pro's are doing anyway.
3hrs 50 mins and just managed to see on the 18th. Course very hard and fast at mo, 7 min tee times being applied, was fine for first 6 holes then hit the traffic.
Was in no rush though, good value for £15 and great to catch up with a mate.

Played this morning. Beautiful out there! Hoping to play Friday too at Moor Park. Have a Society Club membership there but cannot book until 4pm today so hoping me and a buddy can get on!
Don't be embarrassed, how many points did you get ?

Every round since lockdown. Before that - once in a year!
I'm playing in an official comp on Sunday - trust me I'm trying!!

You've cracked it - take a layoff every year from March to May and then come back to smash the course.
On that basis, I haven't played a round this year so should break the course record when I eventually get out! I won't hold my breath!

Not unless it hits the flag and goes in!
IF your club has agreed that rule l
Holed? 😂
The worlds gone mad.

Shortened backswing.
I have no idea!
Just hit a Dominic Cummings
Hit a very long drive out of bounds, but no penalty given
47 points today? Or have the wheels fallen off?
Cut, cut, then cut again!!
