Introduction
Hi folks. Please bear with me as this is the first Steam Guide I've written. Typically, I write guides for the Astats community but I feel this guide is better suited here as the descriptions for how to unlock the achievements are one-liners.

Most of these I have unlocked myself through regular play followed by some testing to figure out some of the specialty ones. Others I have inferred their meaning from previous unlocks (ie. tournament trophies).

However, there are two achievements that I have no clue how they unlock. I've achieved one (Adventurer) but can't recall when it unlocked. I am very sorry about that!

As always, I hope that this is helpful to someone! If you have any additional information, suggestions or requests for clarification, please feel free to leave a comment below the guide. Thanks and good luck!

=============================================================================

EDIT (May 23, 2016): I've updated how to unlock "Time Is Money", one of the unknowns! A big THANK YOU to `ƁĪƓƓǛǸŜ57＇, Satans Little Helper, and X_XRossi for the discussion they had on the forums that lead to unlocking this!

Unfortunately we still don't know exactly how "Adventurer" unlocks, but you should get it through regular play.

Who wants to swim if one could play miniature golf?
This is unlocked after receiving a medal (bronze, silver or gold) in all 18 holes in the challenge mode for Beach Bar (second course).

Irresistable

You seem to have real fun. And now? Start from scratch!
This is unlocked after receiving a medal (bronze, silver or gold) in all 54 holes in challenge mode. You don't have to reset your profile as the description seems to indicate.
Amateur

You've got your first medal. It's bronze!
Get a bronze medal for a hole in challenge mode by achieving par+2. (Note: It also unlocked after 6 strokes. This may be a bug.)
Silverware

Really fancy but you still can't buy something from that.
Get a silver medal for a hole in challenge mode by achieving par+1.
First Gold

My Precious! It's a shame, that's not a ring.
Get a gold medal for a hole in challenge mode by achieving par.

How to Unlock
Winner

Someone got on top of the podium.
Win FIRST PLACE in 1 tournament against AI.

Champion

Not a single person is able to hold a candle to you.
Win FIRST PLACE in 1 tournament against 5-star difficulty AI.
Prom King

You're the uncontroversial winner of the tourney. Of ALL tourneys!
Win FIRST PLACE in 10 tournaments against AI.
(Note: Any difficulty level. I also don't believe it has to be 10 wins in a row.)
Runner-Up

That can be improved.
Win SECOND PLACE in 1 tournament against AI.
(Note: Any difficulty level.)
On The Podium

At least arrived on the podium.
Win THIRD PLACE in 1 tournament against AI.
(Note: Any difficulty level.)
Curtly Off Target

At least it's a trophy, right?
Win FORTH PLACE in 1 tournament against AI.
(Note: Any difficulty level.)
Sir Rolf

He's like the black knight … Sir Rolf Golf is the greatest!
In a tournament, achieve a final total score of less than (or equal to) 25.
Together Against Each Other

Hopefully you were the winner!
Play a local multiplayer ("hot seat") tournament.
(Note: Winning may or may not be required. Might as well try to win with your main profile and goof off with the guest.)

How to Unlock
Hole-In-One!

Ninjastyle! A ninja never misses his target.
Get a hole-in-one
(Note: challenge mode only.)
Referee

STOP! You really aimed at this, right?
Take 6 strokes on a hole without sinking the ball to earn a penalty stroke, 10 times.
(Note: Only counts when doing challenge mode, not tournaments.)
Lifeguard

All kids used a boat, except for Xander, he went under.
Putt a ball into a water hazard, 1 time. The easiest hole to do this on is Camping Site (third course) - Hole 1.
Pearl Diver

Do you try to get some extra money here?
Putt a ball into a water hazard, 50 times. The easiest hole to do this on is Camping Site (third course) - Hole 1.
Common Grave

You've got a lot to answer for.
Putt a ball into a water hazard, 100 times. The easiest hole to do this on is Camping Site (third course) - Hole 1.
Tourist

You've made a really nice journey so far.
Putt the ball 500 metres. Focusing on other achievements will unlock this easily.
Frequent Flyer Miles

And still there's so much more to see!
Putt the ball 1 kilometre. Focusing on other achievements will unlock this easily.
Rowdy

And it made ZOOM!
Putt the ball, 1001 times. Focusing on other achievements will unlock this easily.
Slipped

They really could take better care of their place, it's extremely slippery.
Putt the ball so it slips off the green, 50 times. The best hole to achieve this in is Beach Bar (second course) - Hole 16, due to the open part of the course.
Greetings From Thor

Did you really displease a god?
Putt the ball so it hits the hammer hazard in Camping Site (third course) - Hole 17.
Hit And Sunk

Who needs cannoneers if one has you as captain? You hit everything!
Putt the ball so it hits a hazard and then sink the ball, 100 times.
(Notes: Example would be Camping Site (third course) - Hole 4. Bounce the ball off the angled rocks. You do not have to sink the ball in the same stroke, just within the same round.)
Time Is Money

... and makes the world go round!
Note: Unlocking this can be tricky.

I unlocked this by doing the following:
1. If the game was open previously, close it. Then restart it.
2. When you get to the main menu, immediately go to options and turn off guide arrows.
3. Go to Challenge Mode -> Beach Bar (second course) - Hole 4
4. As soon as you are able to, putt the ball. DO NOT AIM. Just add power.
5. You need to get a hole-in-one (I typically did this with 1 less than full power). If you don't get a hole-in-one, press ESC and Reset.
6. (IMPORTANT) If you get a hole-in-one: on the following menu click on "Course Selection" and NOT Reset.
7. Repeat Steps 3-6 for 4-5 times or until the achievement unlocks.

If you are having trouble getting this and you are following these steps exactly, you may need to create a new in-game profile, have Steam check the game cache, or completely wipe the game off your hard drive and reinstall it. However, I managed to unlock it without doing any of those.

THANK YOU again to `ƁĪƓƓǛǸŜ57＇, Satans Little Helper, and X_XRossi for the discussion they had on the forums that lead to unlocking this!

Adventurer

Sure, you're in the right game with all these traps?
??? - Sorry, this one unlocked when I wasn't paying attention.

Theory: Going by the description, this might be related to hitting different types of traps. Or it might be related to trying each of the 54 holes. I'm really not sure.

Adventurer pops after beating the 17th hole of the 3rd map

For Prom King achievement, no need to be consecutive wins.
Also you can't farm places and victories in Multiplayer mode.

I also got the " Adventurer " achievement on my first playthrough on the 17th hole with the Thor's Hammer. Immediately after the "Greetings From Thor" achievement, but before the both "Irresistable" and "Gold Treasure" achievements. Therefore, "Adventurer" has nothing to do with the 54 holes. AFAIR, this hole is the last one with a trap. So, I guess you just have to pass all holes with traps or to hit every trap, indeed.

For whatever reason I happened to check out some of my games achievements from years ago and noticed this dedication here.:neon_happy: Thank You, a nice surprise to see this :ss13ok:
SandShoo!™ 15 Jun, 2021 @ 2:51pm 
Thanks for this! helped a lot. 1 tip you could add in for the "sir rolf" achievement is to do it on the candy land (free DLC) level i found this was the easiest course to do it on. :locohappy:

Thanks!

Re: Adventurer (it might be related to trying each of the 54 holes). I've played mutliple times on all holes (both challenge & tournament) & still don't have this ach.

Hello, I added your guide here: http://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=963020290
I hope you enjoy it

Since time is money appears to be as simple as hole in 1 before x seconds, I just started challenge mode on beach Level 1. Bashed it about 10 or so times, got it off a rebound. Easy. Just kept restarting when it missed.

Awesome! Thank you for finding that out!
