    i've been using mostly star hurleys for years. like the shape and they seem to last reasonly well. there really is some terrible hurls out there though. always buy 5-6 at a time because it does take a while too get them. usually happy with about 4 of them. always leave them in the shed for a couple of months too

    Best way to make the hurleys last longer is to get them a few months before they are needed.
    Then soak them in linseed oil, preferably for a few days in a bath, double band them, let them dry in an outdoor shed/garage without central heating to stop the wood drying out too quickly.

    IMO the problem is people buy hurleys today and use them tomorrow and then wonder why them break. Simple the timber is too dry.
