If I'm sitting at my computer in February, thinking of a road trip in June, do I want to see courses listed that are closed in winter? Yes. Doesn't matter that they're currently unavailable; I want to know about them.
Bucksnort, if you've been before, you know needs reservations---at the point you contact them, you'll find out that it's closed. Highbridge Hills, if you've been before, you know the conditions and situations are variable, and you'll check before showing up. I've never been to Hawk Hollow, but I know it's not always available. I knew that with Sugaree, too.
I consider Camp Canaan a 5-star course. Were it to make the top 10, would it need to drop off on weekdays, and appear on weekends (the only time it can be played)?
Besides, if you've been and know one of the Top 10 courses, you probably want to play it again, and won't be checking to see if it's still on the list that day.

It's just a can of worms, editing the list based on availability. Like editing it to weight old or new reviews, or high or low reviews, or whatever other standards people wish to use to "improve" the list. As soon as you choose the standards, someone will be hollering about different, "better" criteria to edit it with.
