Pic: This slick hurl would put the fear of God into any opponent

Just imagine running in for a goal with this thing…

The ‘keeper would probably* run a mile… *Probably.

Freelance illustrator John Flynn is the creator of the phoenix inspired hurley and if you like what you see here then you’ll definitely want to check out his Instagram page.

Just look at this beauty…

The Viking hurley would definitely look sweet beside The Viking Gaels jersey.

Okay, so heading out onto the field with a painted hurley would probably get you a few odd looks from those in attendance, but it certainly is a great birthday present idea for the hurling fan that has (almost) everything.

Big thanks to John Flynn for sending this our way
