Sanity check.... the slope of a gold tee box can NEVER be higher than the slope of the black tee box when the black tees have a higher course rating, right? I will call over, but found this interesting....

Their respective ratings are Black (72.9) and Gold (70.9).
This is a big deal as if it is 134 instead of 139 my opponent gets one less stroke  |
Instead of looking at the FSGA website you might want to look at the Lopez Scorecard which shows:
Black Slope = 138 Gold Slope = 137
Black CR = 72.6 Gold CR = 70.7
Just the way they should be!
