Making your first moves in Golf Solitaire
Treat this as a chance to practise one rule. Remove all 35 tableau cards. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. Take the next action only when the current step is clear. Look at the complete hand before deciding. Take an exposed bottom card one rank above or below the waste top, allowing ace–king wrapping. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.
Seven columns of five, one stock pass. Free solo play, no wagering.
A small practice goal

The goal to keep in mind
