Believe me, it was all I could do to resist ribbing you about the Super X-2 holding up. I truly hope it does because I would hate for you to have a bad experience with it the first year you own it.
As far as killing the snows, it is something that needs to be done or we could possibly lose other waterfowl species and the snows in the long run. In the short run, we could possibly see a reduction in the amount of waterfowl.
I try to feel the same way over here about resident geese and deer. When we fill a truck up with 25 birds at the end of the day and I shoot 8 does in a single morning within 2 hours, I used to wonder about it, but then realized that if the game weren't this plentiful I wouldn't be shooting so many of them.
