That is one strange game.... something like field hockey but the players actually play the ball with their hands and swing like a bat? I'm sure it's probably got a 200+ year history though?

Great shots Dessie. No 1 isn't a goal unless the ball travelled further than you have it in that shot. 3 and 5 would be my favorites

DHMN one of the fastest sports in the world watched by thousands here in Ireland look it up on youtube. just type in hurling

great lense very very quick just find fixed length a problem keep cutting heads and feet off and when the sport comes too close. With the 70.200 you can move out and in with the action but hey its a great problem to have:p

I have big trouble trying to explain cricket to the French,Hurling?,wouldn​'t know where to start.As for the 300,about the only way you could keep shooting when the action gets close is to shoot in portrait (vertical).Good shots btw

I'm guessing the dude in the stripes (Pic #1) losy a few teeth to that knee!
Great action shots.

what a sport!
Hey dude with ball in shot 5 - the only thing that helmet will do is make you sweat.
cheers

Great shots, wierd game. Men with clubs. Oh, I get it now. Some sort of tribal ritual? Any mamoths running about?

Looks like fun to me, nice shots too. What are the rules about beating the snot of the other players with those clubs?

And how are you guys re-sizing images like this to post. Mine always look like crap when I make them the size to fit on here. I usually end up having to save them on 5 or 6 jpg quality just to get them under 150K, whats the secret? And how do you get more than two in the same post??

I read the title and didn't figure we had made a sport out of vomiting (but had to check).

Great shots of what looks like one tough sport.
