A native of Wexford, Paul has a wealth of experience in the hurl making business.
Maher Handmade Hurls, a family business, was originally founded in 1983, although the Maher’s had been making hurls for years before that. The quality of Paul’s work is a direct result of exposure at an early age from his father who also handcrafted hurls. This is more than just a job for Paul; it’s a way of life. For Paul, looking after the needs of each individual is important and this is reflected in his many long standing loyal customers.
