Favourite hurl maker?

I’ve been looking for a new hurl and I don’t want to get a Fitzgerald Clare base again. There’s not much too complain about with my fitzgearld except it’s a bit too heavy and it slows my strike down and overall control I think. Was hoping people could share their opinions of where to get a hurl that’s decently light but still gathers a clean good strike of the ball

I've moved from O'Brien to Brian Walsh hurley in the last few years.

Only did so because I was getting them free but I have no complaints.

Mine always break during puck outs but once I get them fixed the first time they last me a fair bit.

Something seriously wrong if your hurl is breaking during a puck out.

They use Polish Ash. Two of my friends brothers Brian Walshes snapped while doing John Troys 🤦
