FED: Catch or Homerun?

Couple things.

First, there is still snow on the moutains in California. At least in the Central VAlley where I am at.

Second, you would be surprised how sturdy those fences are for keeping snow back. When installed properly.

I've seen that snow. Flimsy plastic probably holds it back.

Try one of our winters with the snow storms coming in off Lake Ontario and Lake Erie. Those plastic fences don't hold up. They really don't.

However, they are more forgiving and safer in a collision, which is why they are used more frequently and replaced more frequently, in ski areas.

Had a good laugh regarding where the thread digressed or progressed to. At any rate temporary fences or snow fences (plastic or netting-like) are actually quite common in Northwest NJ. They often make it very difficult to determine whether the ball carried over in the air or on a bounce.

In an earlier post it was noted the that F8 did not extend the field by pushing on the snow fence to make the catch.
