How to Play Golf Solitaire
Play an exposed card that is one rank higher or lower than the waste card. Suits do not matter. Clear all seven columns before the stock runs out to win. Since the stock is available only once, the order of your moves matters.
Four Questions to Ask Before Every Move
Will this move uncover another card?
When two cards are playable, favor the move that reveals a new card. More exposed cards give you more ways to continue the run.
Should I keep playing or draw from the stock?
Check every exposed card before drawing. If a legal card remains, play it or compare the available routes first.
How do Ace and King work?
Ace connects only to 2, and King connects only to Queen. Ace and King cannot be played on each other.
What happens when the stock runs out?
Continue playing any legal exposed cards. If no card fits the waste, the game ends because the waste pile cannot be recycled.

Uncover New Cards First
At the start of a deal, compare every legal move and favor the route that exposes another card.

Check All Seven Columns Before Drawing
A playable card may be easy to miss. Confirm that no exposed card is one rank above or below the waste before using the stock.

Plan Around Ace and King
Before playing an Ace or King, look for an exposed 2 or Queen that can keep the run going.
