The way I did this was in the SANDBACK ISLE. So basically start a golf game, choose single player with rookie opponents and SANDBACK ISLE. From the start aim directly toward the sand on the left of the hole and get it in, should not be too hard. If you happen not to get it directly in the bunker, restart. Once its in the bunker, aim directly for the hole, take a couple of practice shots. Should be Medium strength shots. Once ready, shoot the ball in the hole straight from the bunker. Will take a couple of tries, but I found this to be the best place to get this achievement. Best of luck!

I did this on Whistling Bluff (Maple Lakes DLC Pack, PRO difficulty). With the driver, drive the ball into the bunker on the right side of the large rock, then aim back OVER the small boulder to your left with the sand wedge where the bank will roll the ball right to the hole.

Similar to Marklynx's guide, but instead of doing it against a rookie, do it against a pro, this will move the pin position to the back centre of the green.

On the tee shot, use the 6 iron provided, and hit at full strength, the ball will land in the bunker at the back of the green, since you are playing on professional, you may need to adjust for windspeed and direction.

When in the bunker, make sure to take practice shots, aim for a consistent swing that shows the ball landing a few feet infront of the hole.

I found this easier as it means the chip shot was usually less than 10 yards, rather than closer to 20 with the front green position on rookie

Both guides are very good. On Sandback Island I was always less than 1 yard away. I finally did it on Shoreside Crossing. My first hit was with a 9 iron to the sand bunker closest to the hole. When hitting the ball from the bunker aim little short (as the ball tends to bonce one or twice of the green) and above the hole (there is a little slope, so the ball will actually role down towards the hole). Did it on my 2 try:)
Good luck:)
