How to unlock the Crater Expectations achievement in Kinect Sports Season Two - Definitive Guide

The way I did it was to aim with the 5 iron to the far left of the crater. Using the rookie pin here puts in a nice place for the ball to roll down the hill. Just make sure to give a power shot to the center of the dark green area so the ball doesn't keep moving forward but rather it rolls down the hill and into the hole. By using practice shots to line up where i wanted to go, I made it in on my 5th shot.

Third time was a charm. I lined it up with the blue ball in front on the grass with a power swing. Thanks!

"If you are having trouble aiming, align the white directional arrow straight at the blue tee box marker on the ground in front of you (on the left) and swing hard."

I owe Miotic a beer....and my first-born. I'd been trying the edge of the top left bunker and getting it consistently to about six yards out. His advice worked like a charm.

Miotic's solution was also spot on for me. Needed to have it skirt one of the craters so it would have enough speed to go in.

Genius. 1st try!! Thank you.
By dark green, Grumpy Zombie means the rough, not the fairway, top left.
It stops the ball dead but there's enough slope to cause it to roll down and straight at the pin.

When you play in single player, you are prompted to pick an opponent of a certain difficulty, the first opponent on the left will be "rookie" Play against him. Also, if you haven't played a single player golf match before, it will be the only one currently unlocked.

Did it this way, but after trying three times with an iron 5, I was still short of the downhill path 3 or 4 yards (fell into the bunker), so tried it with an iron 4 and got on my first try.

Not too complicated here. I thought the rookie pin placement was the easiest. I used the club the game recommended and then just under hit; a slower swing will drop the ball right on front lip of the green and then the ball will bounce, hit the pin, and drop in.

First time guide so bare with me please. I found it easiest to do this on the rookie difficulty and did like never complete did. but instead of the 5 iron i used the seven and got it in on my first try. my problem wad no matter how well my practice swings were i always hit too hard on the real ones the 7 just made it easier for me all credit goes to never complete as to the placement the 7 iron is just to make it easier to not overshoot. Please vote, and if its a negative vote please leave comment explaining so i can improve on any later guides. thanks

This achievement isn't to difficult with a little bit of luck on your side. You will want to hit a hole in one on Crater Springs. Now if you want to just aim at the hole and try to get a bounce shot in, a 7 iron seems to be your best bet. However, an easier method is shown below and is the one I recommend. Use a 5 iron and aim your line of sight on the left side of the blue ball (still on the ball, just on the left side of it) on your left. Hit your ball full power and it should roll right in. You will also want to do this on rookie difficulty to avoid wind. See the video below for a visual guide.
