All you have to do is get a 1.68 inch ball into a 4.25 inch hole from 100+yards away! There are a few ways you can go about getting this achievement. Just make sure to use the caddy suggested shots and not a custom one.

MULLIGANS DISABLE THIS ACHIEVEMENT.
Also, judging by the feedback I've recieved this is not obtainable using the Create a Course method. Therefore I have removed it from the guide.

With all these options make sure you set your Course Options to a sunny day with calm winds and easy pin location to increase your odds. Also, note that this becomes easier as your Course Mastery goes up so if your caddy is giving you crappy suggestions try again after you get your mastery up.

Option A:
Play the Par 3 Augusta Course. These holes are some of the shortest in the game.

Option B: (Thanks RaajTM)
Use a Sponsor Challenge. If you get a Sponsor Challenge where the first hole is a Par 3 you can go for an ace and restart the event if you miss. There is always a Sponsor Challenge involving the Par 3 Augusta course under the Masters Tournament so I would recommend using that.

Option C:
Play Augusta National Hole #4 repeatedly and kill two birds with one stone!

I have a well written guide under this achievement as well to show you how to hit that particular Hole-in-One.

I have been trying DESPERATELY to find the "Create a Course" in this confusing menu!! Can someone please tell me how to get to it in Tiger Woods 12, XBOX360?

MMMMM just got 2 holes in one using option b no achievement, Definately followed it 100% the only thing i did was add manual spin during the shot, do you think this stopped the achievement from popping ??

hmm thats weird. Spin shouldnt disable it I had spin on mine when i got it. Did you have mulligans on?

By MetalGeekMark on 16 Apr 2011 20:40

no mulligans are definately off, it shows up on my stats as 2 holes in one, obviusly no pin because they werent in career, nevermind will have another go, kudos on the guide btw its a thumbs up from me

K i will take option b out i guess. I figured it would work but maybe it has to be done in road to the masters? In tiger 10 there was a cheevo to ace a par 4 and option b is the way I got that so I figured it would be a viable solution here as well. Thanks for the feedback.

I spun mine as well and even held Y button thinking it wasn't going in. But I was in Road to the Masters career mode as well, but it was in a sponsor event. Guess that confirms the career mode.

k thanks raaj i'll update the guide and replace option b with your suggestion when I get out of work. Thanks guys.

I'm thinking that this may just not work in Create a Course. I know people who got this by playing the Par 3 Augusta in Quickplay. I wonder is this will work on method C though, Since Custom Hole select may be considered as a Create a Course. =/

I just earnt this in RtM, Costa Navarino Hole 8. Try that if you are struggling - on a Silver Mastery my Caddie predicted I'd be feet away, just use spin to guide it after the initial bounce....

By DrShoe1976 on 25 Apr 2011 16:30

I can confirm option C works. Used the 4 tiger method today(Sunday) spun that sucker right in. 2 achievements popped, not together just right after each other so it works:)

thanks matt :)

When you go to choose a course press (X) instead of (A) to get to Create a Course.

By MetalGeekMark on 15 Apr 2011 11:39

Just want to make add to your solution that it is possible to get this achievement while playing a sponsor event (before an event round) if it consists of par 3 courses and caddie involvement. I just kept restarting the event as the first hole was a par 3 and finally was able to land a hole in one, no loading wait times.

Not 100% sure if this will work for everyone but this is how I glitched the Great Suggestion chievo...

1) Select the caddy suggestion then click B to back out of it. (every time you take a tee-shot)
2) Disable caddy after you back out of their suggestion (every time you take a tee-shot)
3) Use the above 4 Tiger method to hone in your shot based on wind and distance.
4) After you get the Hole in 1 chievo on Augusta Hole #4 using your own custom shot, hopefully you have at least 1 Tiger left to take another tee-shot with. Take the caddy's suggestion and just hit the ball.

My "Great Suggestion" chievo popped as soon as my first tee-shot landed after my Hole in 1 tee-shot. Hope this helps...
