Maybe, but that is not the way to do it in Ireland. .

First - go for a week - 10 days
Second - rent a car and wear a diaper for single lane roads with bi directional traffic and rock walls disguised with vines on roads a car and 1/2 wide. Watch out for the afternoon cow drive at the local milk farm.
Third - play highly rated off the beaten path courses, maybe a local tournament or fund raiser
Fourth - see some castles and tourist spots every other day . . though the castles are all just rock piles at this point
Fifth - dine out with the locals you have golfed with
Sixth - just start with 18 sleeves of balls each course, wearing long underwear and water proofs, and the stories you can tell - priceless!
