Just to add my set-up: I used Scottie Scheffler, 60 degree Lob Wedge and also a tiny bit of backspin. Thanks for recommending this hole!

Got two heartbeat moments on this hole when playing this tournament in career. Then I tried different tee, hole combinations. This was the most consistent. 3rd try.

This worked for me eventually, but with a Tuesday hole location

I’ve tried this method 150-200 times never drops, what specs were you using? I believe that may be the issue at hand for me. My golfer is rated 98 maybe that’s the issue?

I used Scottie Scheffler, he only had a 60 wedge but 2nd try as described.

I found 7th hole of Pebble Beach the easiest, got it 2nd try and the 1st attempt was my fault.

As of right now I believe this achievement is bugged. I have done this 3 times on 7th hole Pebble Beach and no achievement has popped.

Mulligans will not work with this achievement. My recommendation is going to Stroke Play, selecting Top of the Rock and just hole 2 with Black tees, Sunday hole location, wind speed on 1-2 and W direction. I used Scottie Scheffler because of his consistency. I used mulligans to get a feel for what I needed to do, but even when I did make it I didn't get the achievement and had to do it multiple more times just restarting the round.

I used a 60º wedge with a slight draw setting to counteract the wind and to help come from the side because dead on I would regularly hit the flag. Just get comfortable having a repetitive swing and having multiple shots end up with 6" of the hole.

This worked best for me. To add onto this solution here are some things you can do to replicate it:
Use the 60 wedge with the Finesse option, use a slight bit of draw, go to exactly 89 yards. I was able to get it it very close consistently with this setup,

This should be the top solution. Did it with Jack Nicklaus. Used Markavelli’s ideas as well, got it in less than 5 tries. Also unlocked the holey moley achievement.

Your solution combined with Markavelli helped me get this within 30 shots. Thanks.

I did mine in the Challeneges - Championship Moments - PGA Tour - Great Comebacks - List at Farmers Insurance - 3rd Hole Par 3

The wind is usually more consistent in challenges than a normal play through so it helps to place it a little easier on repeated attempts.

Another option for those having trouble. I was getting close but got frustrated with the other approaches here. So I went looking for my own solution. I found this to be very simple, very little prep, high repeatability, and very quick to retry.

Quick match. Stroke play. Augusta par 3 course. Hole 4 only. No changes to anything. Jack Nicklaus. Most of the variability will be in your swing so if it is straight you need to adjust the distance based on your average power. For me that distance was 76yds. I consistently overswing with fast swing. 4% bonus power around there. So I push down on the Dpad till it says 76yds. You hit Y and it will zoom in and you can see the grid on the green. Again this will vary on power but for me based on my power I lined the arrow up in the middle of the 3rd and 4th vertical lines on the green to the left of the hole. Using the grid and distance measurements you should get a pretty high degree of consistency. Once you find your sweet spot where you barely miss left and right itonly takes a second to set your cursor and swing and reset if you miss. After all of that it will come down to luck.
