Abstract/Contents:Profiles Tim Scott and his role as a Golf Course Panelist for Golf Digest. Explains that "his job as a Panelist is to contact and travel to golf courses that wish to be rated. He then plays the course and rates it." Describes the rating criteria, stating that "courses are rated on: shot values, walkability and resistance to scoring. Tim then tabulates his scoring on a rater sheet." Concludes that "all golf courses at any level offer recreational opportunites for people to play golf. Ratings aside, the people [one plays] with and the enjoyment of the game played in the great outdoors is really what it's all about."
