You have to have 25 evaluations in a 10 year period to be considered to be best in state.

Most of the good courses in the state have less than 7 evaluations. The problem is there aren’t enough panelist in the state and other panelist that travel to LA may not go to some of the courses needing evaluations.

The process works for almost every other state and works good for the top 100 next 100 and best public. Hundredths of a point separate some of these courses from being ranked to not being ranked.

They’ve added more panelist to the group over the last year in hopes to get more evaluations to improve the rankings and make them more accurate. There may be an improvement in LA the next time best in state comes out.

Good. In the meantime, it will be a bad list because it’s a process that relies on enough panelist and evaluations which not every state has.

FWIW, this is an old article from the summer but GD recycled it on twitter.
