I HAVE great personal memories of hunting with the Galway Blazers over the years, starting as a child for the first time over 60 years ago. In later years, I had the pleasure also of serving on the Blazers’ hunt committee. Few had transport in those early days so we hacked to meets sometime five miles and often up to 20 miles from our hometown Loughrea especially if the meet was Athenry or Turloughmore.
