Our Story
Hurls
Hurls are our obsession. A passionate pursuit of perfection. Making hurls is our number one priority! Doing it the best we possibly can, and each day trying to be a little bit better than we were yesterday.
Ash
We’ve built deep relationships with our suppliers, ensuring we have the best of what’s in season all year round. AA Grade ash, sourced in Ireland and made in Ireland. We kiln dry our ash planks to 16-18% moisture level to give the player that perfect level of performance and consistency. No ‘drying out’ stage, ready for action!
Style
Modern hurls for modern hurlers. As the game is continuously evolving, so are our hurls. We’ve experimented with various styles and shapes and carefully selected our favourite 7 from various counties all over Ireland.

“I’ve been using 65 hurls since 2013, and it’s made a massive difference to my game.
Each hurl is made to my exact specification by the 65 team, and as a goalkeeper, it is essential to have that high level of consistency with each hurl.”
