I'd have expected the slope rating at Blackmoor to be higher than that.

I don't understand all this slope ratings malarkey.
What does 113 mean in the overall scheme of things?

Dunno but my course, which is pretty open with not much in the way of bunkers, has slopes of 131 off the white and 128 off the yellow. I think Blackmoor has much more to catch out the higher handicap golfer.
Bdill93

From my understanding a 113 course would be an equal test for both scratch golfers and bogey golfers. As the slope number gets larger, the more shots a bogey golfer will need to compete with the scratch player.
Also interestingly - Blackmoors par is 69 but course rating is 70, ive not seen many courses near me have par below CR - I know CR and PAR are totally different concepts! Just most by me are course rated easier/ equal to par.

You are right, and bogey golfers can definitely compete with scratch golfers. We only have two par fives, but five par 3's. The course is not easy though hence the course rating. In the old days off the white tees the CSS always was either 70 or 71. Last board competition out of 180 plus players only two managed a net 69, and one shot a 70.
You need to plot your way round, avoid the heather, and keep the ball under the hole on the greens. Unlike a lot of courses short is better than long. You can run the ball into the greens, as there are no bunkers in front, only cut tight into the side of the greens. Being a good bunker player is definitely an advantage.

It reads exactly like one of the course guides with the pro tips. "A straight shot is essential here." Cheers for that.

Our pro did a series of videos along those lines for the 18 days leading out of lockdown. I was so tempted to do my own parody;
"There's water left and trees right, so the top is definitely the percentage shot here"
"Give it a smack with the driver - at least you can't shank a driver!"
