Question

What should one do if they are late for the sounding of the shofar and did not hear the blessings?

Answer

If he can manage to bless himself before the start of the blasts, he should bless immediately. If he cannot bless before the start of the blasts, he should bless in order. If it is not possible to bless then, or if he arrives after the blasts before Mussaf have ended, he should bless before the blasts during the chazzan's repetition.

Also, women who come to the Mussaf prayer and hear the blasts during the repetition [according to the Ashkenazi custom that they can bless], should bless before the blasts during the chazzan's repetition.
