All-Star Hurleys (Conn O'Sullivan - son of a Corkman) out in Portmarnock (Naomh Mearnog), he and father make lovely custom-sized grained Hurleys, especially for Juveniles, really light, banded, robust with a heavy bas lovely strike. Can take some punishment and keenly priiced. I'd be an advocate of Cultec's but these hurleys are really good.

Good man hurlingdub you know its funny cause it true, noticed that alright when i was living up there..... twas a status thing for many of the posh crew to have a son with and irish name that also played horling!!

Look at for Dublin's next star hurler, Fuinneog Ó Corcra.

McAuliffe's in Charleville have excellent hurleys. You really need to test out a hurley before buying them. I wouldn't recommend buying online. If you are heading to a match in Thurles, Cork, Limerick or Kilkenny I'd say you should try and visit a hurley maker on your way.

For me Torpey's are far ahead of most other makers, IMO their consistency of quality and customer service is tops.
